The Similarweb REST API provides real-time access to web analytics and market intelligence data. It allows you to make individual HTTP requests to specific endpoints, each representing a distinct resource or data set. This approach is ideal for scenarios where you need immediate access to up-to-the-minute data and want to retrieve specific data points on-demand.

Benefits of Using REST API:
- Real-Time Data: Access data in real-time, ensuring you have the latest insights at your fingertips.
- Granular Control: Make precise requests for specific data, optimizing bandwidth and minimizing data transfer.
- Customized and flexible repetitive analyses.
- Immediate Integration: Quickly integrate data into your applications or systems of choice, streamlining your analyses and unifying your data sources.

Data Credits
Meet your data needs with simple, flexible, and scalable API pricing. Our charging mechanism, 'Data Credits', ensures you only pay for the amount of data you actually receive, making it easier to calculate usage and control credit consumption. Learn more about Data Credits here
REST API Rate Limit
We continuously work to optimize the performance and stability of our API. This is why our system limits the number of requests users can make to 10 requests per second. This ensures we can:
- Reduce the risk of downtimes
- Minimize latency
- Enhance system stability
Users exceeding 10 requests per second may receive an HTTP code error: 429 “Too many requests”.
In order to avoid this, you may need to adjust your API integration with a cap of 10 requests per second. Alternatively, speak to us to hear about our Batch API - optimized for bulk data reports of up to 1 million domains at once.
Managing your REST API Usage
You can monitor and manage your REST API Usage straight from the Similarweb platform in the Accounts > Data Tools section.
