Dungeons and Dragons vs Final Fantasy XIV

Dungeons and Dragons

The D&D 5e SRD API (the 5e-bits project) is a fully keyless reference for the System Reference Document — spells, classes, monsters, equipment, races, and rules — queryable through both a REST API and a GraphQL endpoint at the same host. Its old `/docs/` path now redirects to a rebuilt documentation site on GitHub Pages, but the underlying API itself is unchanged and still served over HTTPS from the original `dnd5eapi.co` domain.

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.
