Can someone tell me a nice free source to learn Rest API

HNT_NeoHNT_Neo

Definitely start with trailhead: https://trailhead.salesforce.com/en/content/learn/modules/api_basics

Here are some links provided by legendary bob_buzzard from an older post at: https://developer.salesforce.com/forums/?id=906F0000000AfaVIAS

Always start with developer.salesforce.com - here's a tutorial on the REST API with links to other resources:

https://developer.salesforce.com/page/Getting_Started_with_the_Force.com_REST_API

there's a bunch of videos on youtube at: 

https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=salesforce+rest+api

and here's the Bulk API "home" page - this has links to various articles, documentation etc:

https://developer.salesforce.com/page/Bulk_API

There aren't that many youtube videos, but what there is can be found at:
