Point it at a username, get back structured JSON. Works across social platforms, games, crypto markets, and more. ## Base URL ``` https://drain.lat ``` All endpoints live under `/api/v1/`. ## Getting an API Key Sign in at [drain.lat/dashboard](https://drain.lat/dashboard) using Discord. A key is generated automatically on first login. You can view, copy, and regenerate it from the dashboard. ```http theme={null} x-api-key: YOUR_API_KEY ``` You can also use the `Authorization` header with Bearer token: ```http theme={null} Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY ``` Keep your key private. Don't paste it in public repos or client-side code. ## Errors All errors come back as JSON with a single `error` field. ```json theme={null} { "error": "message here" } ``` | Code | Meaning | | ----- | ------------------------------------------- | | `200` | Success | | `400` | Bad request - missing or invalid parameters | | `401` | Invalid or missing API key | | `404` | User or resource not found | | `429` | Rate limited - retry after 60 seconds | | `500` | Server error | ### Common Error Examples ```json theme={null} // Missing parameter { "error": "Query parameter required" } // Invalid API key { "error": "Invalid API key" } // Resource not found { "error": "Package not found" } // Rate limited { "error": "Rate limited. Retry after 60s" } ``` ## Rate Limits Global rate limit: **100 requests per 15 minutes** per API key. Individual endpoints may have additional caching (10-30 minutes) to improve performance and reduce load. If you get a `429`, wait a few seconds and retry. Need higher limits?
