Getting Started with the API

Welcome to Modrinth API developer docs!

info

Looking for the list of routes? Take me to the API specification.

This documentation doesn't provide a way to test our API. In order to facilitate testing, we recommend the following tools:

  • cURL (recommended, command-line)
  • ReqBIN (recommended, online)
  • Postman
  • Insomnia
  • Your web browser, if you don't need to send headers or a request body

Once you have a working client, you can test that it works by making a GET request to the following address:

GET https://api.modrinth.com/
{
  "about": "Welcome traveler!",
  "documentation": "https://docs.modrinth.com",
  "name": "modrinth-labrinth",
  "version": "2.7.0"
}

If you got a response similar to the one above, you can use the Modrinth API! Take me to the API specification.
