Directory of API definitions in OpenAPI(aka Swagger) 2.0 and 3.0 formats.
API access to collection: Go! - We also have an RSS Feed
Our goal is to create the most comprehensive, standards-compliant and up-to-date directory of machine-readable API definitions with the following principles:
- Open source, community driven project.
- Only publicly available APIs (free or paid).
- Anyone can add or change an API, not only API owners.
- All data can be accessed through a REST API.
If you want to reference this project and you need an icon or even a banner, check our branding guide.
The project was started by Ivan Goncharov of APIs.guru, it is now maintained by Mike Ralphson of Mermade Software. Check out our other OpenAPI-related projects.
APIs.guru provide services and consultancy around GraphQL, OpenAPI/Swagger spec and APIs in general. You can contact us at founders@apis.guru / mike.ralphson@gmail.com
What does APIs.guru do?
- Filter out private and non-reliable APIs
- Convert non-OpenAPI formats into OpenAPI(fka Swagger) 2.0
- Fix mistakes, ~80% of definitions have some
- Add additional data, like: logo, categories, …
- Update definitions on at least a weekly basis
API definition acceptance criteria
- Public - anyone can access it as long as they follow some clearly defined steps (subscribe, pay fees, etc.).
- Persistant - API is made with long-lived goal, and not for a particular event (conference, hackathon, etc.).
- Useful - API should provide useful functionality not only for its owner.
Update procedure
All definitions are automatically updated from their original source.
You can see this under x-origin
property inside each of swagger.yaml
files.
We run our update script at least weekly and manually check diffs before commit.
If you see some APIs are not updated for more than 2 weeks please open an issue.
