What it is AI-extracted, prompt v1, taxonomy v1, 2026-08-30, confidence not recorded

A REST API serving the catalog of entries from the public-apis GitHub project, supporting filtering by title, description, auth, HTTPS, CORS, and category. It is written in Go, requires no authentication, supports CORS, and is served over HTTPS.

Use cases

  • find free public apis by category
  • search apis that need no authentication
  • get a random api suggestion
  • list all apis supporting cors
  • query apis that support https
  • browse the public-apis catalog programmatically

When to choose

  • you need programmatic access to the public-apis directory
  • you want a no-auth, CORS-enabled API for a demo or app
  • you need to filter APIs by auth type, HTTPS, or category

When to avoid

  • you need frequently updated data (last release was 2022)
  • you need a general API search engine beyond the public-apis list
  • you require guaranteed uptime or an SLA
