| 1 | This api host (api.furry.bot) is being removed on June 9th, 2021. Please migrate to https://yiff.rest. |
No |
| 2 | We've moved to using subdomains for api versioning! e.g. https://v2.yiff.rest. They have the same functionality, just without the version in the path. The /V2 route will not be removed, but any future api versions will only use the subdomain. |
Yes |
| 3 | Hey, we see you aren't using an api key. They're free! To get one, visit https://yiff.rest/apikeys. |
Yes |
| 4 | WARNING! This list is STATIC, it can be inaccurate! We recommended parsing the dot notation in https://v2.yiff.rest/categories instead of this! |
No |
| 5 | Since images are getting bigger, we're adding a size limit parameter. Add ?sizeLimit=<size> to limit the size of images we provide you. |
Yes |
| 6 | You can now hide these notes by setting the notes parameter to disabled. (ex: ?notes=disabled) |

- In most cases the md5 of the image will also work. For internally hosted images, the id and md5 will always be the same. For externally hosted images, they will be different.
- Currently, using the dot notation as is will work, but this is considered legacy behavior and could be broken without notice.
