Map and search

• Map Mappings and metadata at /api/v1/map.
• Search Title search with an optional year filter.

Per-service data

Parsed records and available raw payloads, keyed by each service’s ID.

• AniDB Keyed by aid. Original XML at /raw/xml.
• MyAnimeList Keyed by mal_id.
• AniList Keyed by anilist_id.
• Anime News Network Keyed by ann_id.
• Kitsu Keyed by kitsu_id.
• Anime-Planet Keyed by slug.

Errors

Errors are JSON, except 405 (plain text).

{ "error": "not found" }

• 400 — invalid ID or query.
• 404 — unknown route, missing record, or unfetched payload.
• 405 — unsupported method; use GET or HEAD.
• 500 — server error.

Limits

There are no API usage limits. I don’t plan to add them while usage isn’t a problem.

There are no requirements on how you use data produced by animap. Just follow the licenses of the upstream services (see Data attribution).

Enjoy.
