Public Holidays
AbstractAPI's Holidays API returns official national, regional, and religious holidays for 200+ countries and states/provinces going back over 100 years, queried with a country code, year, and API key against a JSON REST endpoint shared with Abstract's broader API suite. The free key is explicitly non-commercial/testing-only — shipping it in a production app requires upgrading to a paid plan starting around $17/month per API — and Abstract bundles the same account/key management across all of its other data APIs (email, phone, IP, company enrichment).
GreatAPIs Score
Auth quickstart
- Sign up with the provider to get an API key.
- Send it on every request as a header
Authorization: <key> - The exact header isn't documented — Authorization is a common default; confirm in the provider's docs.
Your key is stored only in this browser (localStorage) and sent directly to the API — never to greatapis.
