Final Fantasy XIV Data API

API

Comprehensive REST API for Final Fantasy XIV game data

Overview

The Final Fantasy XIV Data API provides RESTful endpoints to access detailed game data including characters, items, quests, lore entries, monsters, dungeons, and patch notes. Responses are in JSON format. Key endpoints include /character/{id} for player profiles, /item/{id} for gear stats, /quest/{id} for quest details, and /lore for in-game story content. Use cases include building fan websites, player tools (gear planners, stat calculators), Discord bots for quick game info, and data visualization projects for FFXIV content creators.
