Producing secure software is challenging. The poor usability of security APIsmakes this even harder. Many recommendations have been proposed to supportdevelopers by improving the usability of cryptography libraries and APIs;rooted in wider best practice guidance in software engineering and API design.In this SLR, we systematize knowledge regarding these recommendations.  We identify and analyze 65 papers spanning 45 years, offering a total of 883recommendations.We undertake a thematic analysis to identify 7 core ways toimprove usability of APIs. We find that most of the recommendations focus onhelping API developers to construct and structure their code and make it moreusable and easier for programmers to understand. There is less focus, however,on documentation, writing requirements, code quality assessment and the impactof organizational software development practices. By tracing and analyzingpaper ancestry, we map how this knowledge becomes validated and translated overtime.We find evidence that less than a quarter of all API usabilityrecommendations are empirically validated, and that recommendations specific tousable security APIs lag even further behind in this regard.
