What you get#
Onekey exposes Dog CEO as 4 endpoints behind one API key: 2 endpoints return one record (data is an object) and 2 endpoints return a list (data is an array). Every answer uses the same envelope (success, data, metadata, error), the cost is reported in metadata.credits_charged, and fields are mapped onto the unified schema so the code you write for Dog CEO also works for the rest of the fun & utilities category.
Endpoints#
| Endpoint | What it does | Parameters | Credits | Status |
|---|---|---|---|---|
breed_image | A random image of a dog breed. | breed* | 1 | stable |
images | Several random dog images. | - | 5 | stable |
random_image | A random dog image. | - | 1 | stable |
sub_breeds | Sub-breeds of a dog breed. | breed* | 5 | stable |
A * marks a required parameter. Each endpoint name links to its reference page with the full parameter table, caching window and a recorded response.
Make a request#
This calls dogceo.breed_image (1 credit, stable). Replace YOUR_API_KEY with your key; sign up, no card. 1,000 free credits cover the open-platform endpoints. Hard-to-reach platforms (X, TikTok, Instagram, Reddit, and others marked on their page) need a verified email and a purchased pack.
curl "https://api.onekey.dev/v1/dogceo/breed_image?breed=hound" \
-H "x-api-key: YOUR_API_KEY"Fields you get back#
These unified fields come back from Dog CEO, with the same names as on every other platform. The count is how many of its 4 mapped endpoints return the field; a field the source lacks is null, never missing.
| Field | Type | Endpoints |
|---|---|---|
media.url | URL | 3 |
entity.status | string | 2 |
entity.name | string | 1 |
The full schema is in Unified schema.
