We've also decided to return a user friendly form of the error to
the caller in a !{rejected_promise} so that the caller can display a proper error message to the user.
### Unchanged `getHeroes` API
### Get hero by id
The `HeroDetailComponent` asks the `HeroService` to fetch a single hero to edit.
The `HeroService` currently fetches all heroes and then finds the desired hero
by filtering for the one with the matching `id`.
That's fine in a simulation. It's wasteful to ask a real server for _all_ heroes when we only want one.
Most web APIs support a _get-by-id_ request in the form `api/hero/:id` (e.g., `api/hero/11`).
Although we made significant *internal* changes to `getHeroes()`, the public signature did not change.
We still return a !{_Promise}. We won't have to update any of the components that call `getHeroes()`.
Update the `HeroService.getHero` method to make a _get-by-id_ request,
applying what we just learned to write `getHeroes`:
+makeExcerpt('app/hero.service.ts', 'getHero', '')

It's almost the same as `getHeroes`.
The URL identifies _which_ hero the server should update by encoding the hero id into the URL
to match the `api/hero/:id` pattern.
Our stakeholders are thrilled with the added flexibility from the API integration.
We also adjust to the fact that the `data` in the response is a single hero object rather than !{_an} !{_array}.
### Unchanged _getHeroes_ API
Although we made significant *internal* changes to `getHeroes()` and `getHero()`,
the public signatures did not change.
We still return a !{_Promise} from both methods.
We won't have to update any of the components that call them.
Our stakeholders are thrilled with the web API integration so far.
Now they want the ability to create and delete heroes.
Let's see first what happens when we try to update a hero's details.

Updates weren't lost before, what's happening?
When the app used a list of mock heroes, changes were made directly to the
hero objects in the single, app-wide shared list. Now that we are fetching data
from a server, if we want changes to persist, we'll need to write them back to
the server.
