Dungeons and Dragons (Alternate) vs Final Fantasy XIV

Dungeons and Dragons (Alternate)

Open5e is a community-run, keyless REST API for the 5e SRD — monsters, spells, classes, races, magic items, and more — with Django REST Framework-style search, filtering, field selection, and pagination built in. Its old v1 endpoints are now deprecated in favor of a v2 default, and the actual API is served from a separate `api.open5e.com` host distinct from the Next.js marketing/search site at `open5e.com`.

Final Fantasy XIV

XIVAPI is a community-maintained search and data API covering Final Fantasy XIV's full game sheet data — items, actions, quests, achievements, and more — sourced from the client's own datamined tables. It now runs as XIVAPI v2, with the original xivapi.com endpoints redirecting to the new host and a migration guide for callers still on v1. No API key is required for reads, and the team asks production users to check in on Discord.
