What you get#
Onekey exposes Wikidata as 7 endpoints behind one API key: 3 endpoints return one record (data is an object) and 4 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 Wikidata also works for the rest of the knowledge & reference category.
Endpoints#
| Endpoint | What it does | Parameters | Credits | Status |
|---|---|---|---|---|
entity | Wikidata item: id, English label and description. | id* | 1 | stable |
instance_of | Wikidata 'instance of' (P31) statements of an item. | id* | 5 | stable |
property | Wikidata property: id, label, description and datatype. | id* | 1 | stable |
search | Search Wikidata items by label. | q* | 5 | stable |
search_property | Search Wikidata properties by label. | q* | 5 | stable |
sitelinks | Wikipedia sitelinks (English) of a Wikidata item. | id* | 1 | stable |
sparql | Run a read-only SPARQL SELECT on Wikidata (variables ?item, ?itemLabel, ?value). | q* | 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 wikidata.entity (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/wikidata/entity?id=Q42" \
-H "x-api-key: YOUR_API_KEY"Fields you get back#
These unified fields come back from Wikidata, with the same names as on every other platform. The count is how many of its 7 mapped endpoints return the field; a field the source lacks is null, never missing. 3 platform-specific fields (ext.<name>) come on top, documented on each endpoint page.
| Field | Type | Endpoints |
|---|---|---|
entity.id | string | 6 |
entity.name | string | 5 |
entity.description | string | 4 |
content.title | string | 1 |
content.url | URL | 1 |
entity.stats.rank | integer | 1 |
entity.url | URL | 1 |
The full schema is in Unified schema.
