Analytics API

The Analytics API provides detailed usage analytics and API call history for your account. Track your API consumption, monitor usage patterns, and analyze which APIs you're calling most frequently.

Calling this API does NOT consume any of your API quota.

Use Cases

  • Monitor your API usage to optimize costs
  • Track which APIs are most popular in your application
  • Analyze usage patterns over time
  • Build custom dashboards and reporting tools
  • Set up alerts when approaching quota limits

Code Examples

1 curl -X GET "https://api.api-ninjas.com/v1/analytics?api_key=YOUR_API_KEY"

Notes

  • Unlike other API endpoints, the Analytics API requires your API key to be passed as a query parameter (?api_key=YOUR_KEY) rather than in the X-Api-Key header.
  • Only the API call counts in api_call_history are stored. API inputs (including parameters, body, etc.) and API responses are not stored for privacy reasons.
  • This endpoint is rate-limited to prevent abuse. Please cache responses when building dashboards.
