rust.wiki API: a free Rust API for skins, prices, items, servers and player stats

Everything on rust.wiki as JSON. 96 endpoints cover every Rust skin with its live Steam Community Market price and third-party marketplace prices, sale history, deals, the market index and market cap; every Rust item with recipes, recycle yields, blueprints and loot sources; the weekly item store and its history; the Steam Workshop; monuments, loot tables, console commands, CCTV codes, world entities, building pieces, the tech tree and calculators; Facepunch updates; the Rust server directory; Rust player stats from the official Steam Web API; Steam inventory valuations; rustprofit.com casino rounds with provably-fair data; rendered PNG charts; and live network status. Base URL https://rust.wiki/api/v1.

[!success] Success This API is free. No cost, no credit card, no paid tiers and no trial that expires. Sign in with Steam, create a key, and every endpoint is yours within the daily quotas below. The only ask is a visible link back to rust.wiki from whatever you build.

Getting started

Sign in with Steam and create a key. It's free and takes ten seconds; you can hold up to 5 keys.
Send the key as an X-API-Key header on every request to https://rust.wiki/api/v1.
Read the response as JSON. Prices are USD cents, timestamps are UTC.
Check what you have left any time with GET /me; it is never counted against your quota.

curl -H "X-API-Key: rw_live_YOUR_KEY" \
  "https://rust.wiki/api/v1/skins/search?q=tempered"

import requests
r = requests.get("https://rust.wiki/api/v1/market/prices",
                 headers={"X-API-Key": "rw_live_YOUR_KEY"})
prices = r.json()["prices"]   # {market_hash_name: {...}}

const r = await fetch("https://rust.wiki/api/v1/servers/top?limit=5",
  { headers: { "X-API-Key": "rw_live_YOUR_KEY" } });
const { results } = await r.json();

What people build with it

Rust skin price trackers and Discord bots: /market/prices for the whole catalogue in one call, /skins/{id}/history and /charts/price/{id}.png for the chart.
Trading and arbitrage tools: /market/deals, /market/marketplaces and /skins/{id}/orderbook.
Server browsers and status widgets: /servers with every filter the directory has, /servers/{id}/history for player counts.
Player and inventory lookups: /players/{steamid} for Rust stats and achievements, /inventory/{steamid} for a valued inventory.
Provably-fair verifiers: /games/{game}/rounds, /games/{game}/seeds and /games/verify.
AI assistants: add the rust.wiki MCP server (https://rust.wiki/mcp, no key needed), or point agents at /openapi.json or /llms.txt.

Authentication

X-API-Key: rw_live_… (recommended)

Works from any client, including browsers (the API allows cross-origin GETs).

Authorization: Bearer rw_live_…

Same thing for HTTP libraries that only know bearer tokens.

?api_key=rw_live_…

Query-string fallback for tools that can't set headers. Avoid it where you can: URLs end up in logs.

A missing, malformed, unknown or revoked key returns 401 with a JSON {"error": "…"} body. Keys never expire; revoke them on the keys page. Only a hash of each key is stored, so a lost key can't be recovered: create a new one.

Quotas & limits

The API is free; quotas are the only limit. Each key gets a separate daily quota per category (reset at 00:00 UTC) and a burst limit of 300 requests per minute across everything. They're sized so a real application never notices them; they exist so one runaway loop can't slow the site for everyone else. GET /me shows your key's used and remaining numbers for today and is never counted.

Category	Requests / day
Account `account`	not counted
Items `items`	25,000
Skins `skins`	25,000
Market & prices `market`	10,000
Charts `charts`	2,000
Item store `store`	10,000
Workshop `workshop`	10,000
Reference data `reference`	25,000
Player stats `players`	2,000
Inventories `inventory`	1,000
Casino games `games`	10,000
Rust servers `servers`	10,000
Network status `status`	10,000
Paper funds `funds`	5,000

Every response carries X-RateLimit-Category, X-RateLimit-Limit, X-RateLimit-Remaining and X-RateLimit-Reset (seconds until the daily reset). Over either limit you get 429 with a Retry-After header. Need more? Ask; quotas are a dial, not a wall.

Conventions

Money is integer USD cents unless the field name says otherwise (e.g. usd). The canonical wiki price of a skin is Steam's lowest sell order, falling back to the highest buy order when nothing is listed; third-party marketplace prices are reported separately.
Timestamps are UTC ISO-8601 strings.
Lists paginate with page (1-based) and per_page (max 200) and return {"page", "per_page", "total", "pages", "results": [...]}.
Identifiers: items use their Rust shortname (e.g. rifle.ak), skins their Steam itemdefid, players a 17-digit SteamID64, monuments/world/building their URL slug.
Errors are JSON {"error", "status"}: 404 for unknown resources, 422 for invalid parameters (with details), 401 for key problems, 429 for limits.
Freshness: most data is refreshed server-side every 5-30 minutes (Steam prices about every 12 minutes, marketplaces every 5, the store when it rotates). Polling faster than that only spends quota.
Compression: send Accept-Encoding: gzip, br; the bulk price endpoints are large.
Spend less quota: GET /status/data reports when every dataset last changed and how often it can change. Poll that (it's cheap) and only re-fetch a heavy payload such as /market/prices or /servers when its updated_at has moved; cache reference data (items, monuments, loot tables, commands) locally, since it only changes with Facepunch's monthly patch. GET /me shows what you have left and is never counted.

Account

category account · never counted

Your own API key: what it is, how much of each daily quota it has used today and when the quotas reset. Calls here are free - they are never counted against any limit.

GET/mecopy URL

Your key's usage and remaining quota for today

Returns the key's name and prefix, the SteamID64 of the account that owns it, and for every category the daily `limit`, `used` and `remaining` counts (UTC day), plus the per-minute burst window, the forced inventory-refresh allowance and `resets_in_seconds`. This call is not counted against any quota, so poll it freely. Every other response also carries the same numbers for its own category in the `X-RateLimit-*` headers.

Items

category items · 25,000 requests/day

The complete Rust item catalogue (~930 items) as seeded from wiki.facepunch.com and Steam's official item definitions: display name, shortname (the exact string Rust's `give` / `inventory.giveto` console commands expect), category, stack size, despawn time, icon, crafting recipe, blueprint and scrap research costs, recycler yields (standard and safe-zone recycler), repair costs, every loot source with drop chance, reverse 'used in' lookups, and the item's skins priced at the canonical wiki price (Steam's lowest sell order, integer USD cents, refreshed about every 12 minutes). The game data itself only changes when Facepunch patches; responses are cached server-side for 15 minutes.

GET/itemscopy URL

Browse or search the item catalogue

One page of live items (seasonal, obsolete and unreleased items are excluded from browsing but still resolve by shortname). Each result carries `shortname`, `display_name`, `category`, `icon_url` and `is_craftable`; fetch `/items/{shortname}` for everything else. Same ordering and cache as the /items page on the site (15 minutes).

Parameter	In	Type	Default	Description
`category`	query	one of `weapon`, `construction`, `general`, `resource`, `attire`, `tool`, `medical`, `food`, `ammo`, `trap`, `component`, `electrical`, `fun`, `misc`		Restrict to one of the 14 wiki.facepunch.com item categories.
`search`	query	string		Fuzzy name search: substring match plus trigram similarity, so a typo like `asault` still finds the Assault Rifle. Results are ranked by similarity unless `sort=category`.
`sort`	query	one of `name`, `category`	`name`	`name` = alphabetical (similarity-ranked while searching); `category` = grouped by category, then name.
`page`	query	integer	`1`	1-based page number. (min 1)
`per_page`	query	integer	`50`	Results per page (max 200). (max 200, min 1)

GET/items/categoriescopy URL

The 14 categories in the site's display order (wiki.facepunch.com's own sidebar order, not alphabetical), each with the number of live items in it, plus `total`. Use the `category` value as the `category` filter of `/items`. Cached for one hour.

GET/items/searchcopy URL

Item name / shortname typeahead

Up to 25 live items matching `q`, best match first: a case-insensitive substring match on the display name OR the shortname, plus trigram similarity on the display name so typos still resolve (`asault` finds the Assault Rifle) - the same ILIKE + similarity search the site's item pickers use. Each result is `{shortname, display_name, category, icon_url}`; use the shortname with `/items/{shortname}`. For filtered, paginated results use `/items?search=` instead. Cached for 5 minutes per query.

Parameter	In	Type	Default	Description
`q` required	query	string		Part of an item's display name or shortname (2+ characters). (min length 2, max length 80)

GET/items/{shortname}/skinscopy URL

All skins for an item, priced

Every skin for one base item, most expensive first (unpriced skins last, then by name) - the same list and order as the Skins tab on the item page. Each skin carries `itemdefid`, `name`, `icon_url`, `market_hash_name`, `item_collection`, `workshopid`, `price` (canonical wiki price, USD cents, null when nothing is listed), `store_price` (its original Rust item-store price, USD cents), `store_change_pct`, `subscriptions` (Workshop subscriber count), `released` and the tradable/marketable/banned flags. Prices refresh about every 12 minutes; this list is cached for 15.

Parameter	In	Type	Default	Description
`shortname` required	path	string		The item's shortname, e.g. `rifle.ak`. (min length 1, max length 80)
`page`	query	integer	`1`	1-based page number. (min 1)

Skins

category skins · 25,000 requests/day

Every Rust skin (about 6,500: weapon, clothing, deployable and decoration skins, drops and DLC) with the same live price the wiki shows: the canonical wiki price is Steam Community Market's lowest sell order, falling back to the highest buy order only when nothing is listed, refreshed every few minutes by our own Steam scraper. Prices are integer USD cents. Sale history is Steam's own median-sale-price series (hourly for the recent window, daily beyond it); holders come from inventories scanned by the rust.wiki/inventory lookup, not a census of the game. Browse and detail payloads are cached 2 and 15 minutes respectively.

GET/skinscopy URL

Browse skins with the site's filters and sorts

One page of skin cards exactly as the /skins browser shows them: `itemdefid`, `name`, icons, `category`, `item_collection`, `market_hash_name`, flags (`is_twitch_drop`, `is_limited_time`, `marketable`, `tradable`, `is_permanent`...), `price` (canonical wiki price in cents, null when Steam has no listing), `subscriptions` (Workshop subscribers, the site's supply proxy), `store_price` (the original item-store price in cents), `store_change_pct` (market price vs store price) and `released` (date accepted into the store). Filters combine with AND. `total` is the filtered count; results are cached for 120 seconds per filter combination.

Parameter	In	Type	Default	Description
`category`	query	one of `weapon`, `clothing`, `deployable`, `decoration`, `crate`, `resource`, `mask`, `none`		Skin category.
`collection`	query	string		Exact collection name, e.g. `Forest Raiders` (see /skins/collections).
`item`	query	string		Base item shortname, e.g. `rifle.ak` - every skin of that one item.
`search`	query	string		Fuzzy name search (trigram similarity; with sort=name results are relevance-ordered). Searches are never cached server-side.
`creator`	query	string		Workshop creator: a 17-digit SteamID64 for an exact match, or part of the creator's display name.
`color`	query	one of `red`, `orange`, `yellow`, `green`, `cyan`, `blue`, `purple`, `pink`, `brown`, `white`, `gray`, `black`, `tan`, `olive`, `navy`, `maroon`, `silver`		Dominant icon colour bucket; matches any of a skin's up to five dominant colours.
`limited_time`	query	boolean	`False`	Only limited-time store items.
`permanent`	query	boolean	`False`	Only permanent store items.
`marketable`	query	boolean	`False`	Only Steam-marketable skins.
`tradable`	query	boolean	`False`	Only tradable skins.
`breakable`	query	boolean	`False`	Only skins with a recycle yield (`recycle_hint`).
`glows`	query	boolean	`False`	Only skins with glow-in-the-dark elements.
`commodity`	query	boolean	`False`	Only Steam commodity items.
`hide_drops`	query	boolean	`False`	Hide loot-crate drops, publisher drops and Twitch drops (what the site calls DLCs and drops).

GET/skins/{itemdefid}copy URL

Full skin detail: price, order book, history, cross-market prices

Everything the skin's wiki page shows, as data. `skin` is the full catalogue record (creator, workshop title and dates, collection, flags, store price and availability, crafting components, glow/cutout ratios, colours). `price` is the canonical wiki price in cents and `price_source` says which side of the book it came from. `orderbook` is Steam's live book: lowest sell order, highest buy order, order counts, the `buy_orders` and `sell_orders` depth ladders (`{price, quantity}`, best first) and `fetched_at`; the headline price refreshes more often than the ladders, so they can briefly trail it. `steam_history` is the last year of Steam's own sale history (`recorded_at`, median sale `price`, `volume`; `sale_basis` false means Steam has no sale series and the points are our ask-price readings instead) - wider ranges via /skins/{itemdefid}/history. `market_stats` is the page's Community & Market Stats card: an archived SCMM snapshot (frozen September 2026) of `supply_total`/`supply_total_estimated`/`supply_total_owners_estimated`, Workshop `subscriptions_current`/ `subscriptions_lifetime`, `favourited_current`, `views`, `votes_up`/`votes_down`, `market_24hr_value`, `market_168hr_value`, `market_last_30d_sales`, `market_rank_index`, `market_liquidity_score`, the market high/low with their dates, `change_7d_percent`/`change_30d_percent`/`change_90d_percent` and `ath_percent`; null for skins SCMM never covered. `cross_market` is live and always present: `market_prices`, the current price and stock on each third-party marketplace we poll (`marketType`, `price` in cents, `supply`; names only, no links), plus the cheapest as `buy_now_price`/`buy_now_from`. `est_supply` (Workshop subscribers or SCMM estimate) and `est_market_cap` (price x supply) are the site's stated approximations. Also `store_rotations` the skin appeared in, `collection_items` and `other_item_skins` (sibling cards), `description`, and `tracked_holders` (`holders`/`units` seen in scanned inventories). Cached for 15 minutes; the cross-market block refreshes every ~5.

Parameter	In	Type	Default	Description

Full Steam order book for one skin

Steam Community Market's current order book for the skin, straight from our scraper's latest snapshot: `lowest_sell_order` and `highest_buy_order` (cents; null when that side is empty), `sell_order_count` and `buy_order_count`, the COMPLETE `sell_orders` and `buy_orders` depth ladders as `[{price, quantity},...]` best price first (every level Steam publishes, not a top-N cut), and `fetched_at`, when the snapshot was taken. The headline ask is refreshed by a market-wide sweep every ~12 minutes; the depth ladders come from the per-item rotation (every few hours), so they can trail it slightly. 404 when the skin has no Steam order book (unmarketable items). Not cached: this is one indexed row.

Steam sale history for one skin

Steam Community Market's own sale history for the skin, scraped from Steam's listing page: `points` of `{recorded_at, price, volume}` where `price` is Steam's median sale price for that interval in cents and `volume` the number of sales. Steam reports roughly hourly points for the recent month and daily beyond; ranges of a year or more are condensed to one point per day (median price, summed volume). Empty when Steam has no sale series for the item (unmarketable skins). History goes back to the skin's first sale, as far as 2015. Refreshed continuously; the full series is cached for an hour.

Market & prices

category market · 10,000 requests/day

Market data for Rust skins. Canonical prices are Steam Community Market's lowest sell order (highest buy order when nothing is listed), from our own Steam scraper, in integer USD cents; third-party marketplace prices (Skinport, DMarket, CS.Deals, Waxpeer, LIS-Skins, Mannco, Tradeit, RustSkins and more) are polled every ~5 minutes. Analytics are the site's own: the equal- or market-cap-weighted market index and compare series built from Steam's daily price history back to 2015, executable 3rd-party-to-Steam deals net of Steam's 15% fee, market cap (price x Workshop subscribers as the supply proxy), and insights. Caches range from 5 minutes (prices, deals) to 24 hours (index/compare series, which only gain a point every 6 hours).

GET/market/pricescopy URL

Steam price of every skin, in one response

Every skin's Steam Community Market price in one blob (about 6,000 priced skins; ~0.7 MB in `full`, ~0.2 MB in `simple`): `prices` is keyed by Steam `market_hash_name`, values in integer USD cents. `price` is the canonical wiki price - the lowest sell order, or the highest buy order when nothing is listed for sale - exactly what every rust.wiki page displays. Steam only; third-party marketplace prices live at GET /market/marketplaces. Regenerated at most every 5 minutes (`generated_at`); the underlying Steam order books refresh every ~12 minutes, so polling faster than that gains nothing. Send `Accept-Encoding: gzip`. Single skins: GET /market/prices/{itemdefid}.

Parameter	In	Type	Default	Description
`format`	query	string	`full`	`full` (default): `{itemdefid, price, lowest_sell_order, highest_buy_order}` per skin. `simple`: just `{market_hash_name: price}` - the smallest possible price list.
`include_unpriced`	query	boolean	`False`	Also list skins Steam has no order book for (price null). Off by default, so every entry has a price.

GET/market/prices/{itemdefid}copy URL

Canonical wiki price for one skin

One entry of /market/prices: `market_hash_name`, `price` (canonical wiki price, cents, null when Steam has no order book for it), `lowest_sell_order`, `highest_buy_order` and the blob's `generated_at`. Served from the same 5-minute blob, so it costs nothing extra to call per skin. 404 for an unknown id or a skin with no Steam market name.

Parameter	In	Type	Default	Description
`itemdefid` required	path	integer		The skin's item definition id. (min 1)

Every skin's price on every third-party marketplace

Current listing prices on the third-party marketplaces we poll directly (Skinport, CS.Deals, DMarket, Rust.tm, CS.Trade, Waxpeer, LIS-Skins, Mannco.store, Swap.gg, Tradeit.gg, RapidSkins, Loot.farm, RustSkins): `prices` is keyed by Steam `market_hash_name`, each value a `{marketplace: price}` map. UNLIKE the rest of the API these prices are USD floats (`unit: "usd"`, e.g. 12.34) - this payload predates the API and outside tooling already reads it. Only marketplaces whose poller is currently alive are included (`sources`, with each one's `polled_at`); a source that stopped polling is listed in `excluded_sources` with its last poll time instead of serving stale prices. Listings a marketplace reports as out of stock are omitted. Cached 5 minutes, matching the ~5-minute poll cycle.

GET/market/indexcopy URL

Skin market index series

The rust.wiki Market Index: a basket of skins rebased to 100 at the start of the window, like a stock index, built from Steam's daily price history (one point per day; weekly beyond two years). Returns `dates` (ISO dates), `values` (index level, 100 = the window's first day), `constituent_count` (skins that had a price at the baseline; baskets are capped at 300 constituents) and `label`. A skin whose history starts inside the window joins from its first price. Cached for 24 hours per parameter combination (history only gains a point every 6 hours); the full catalogue, every category and every collection are kept warm server-side.

Parameter	In	Type	Default	Description
`basket_type`	query	one of `all`, `high_value`, `low_value`, `category`, `collection`, `color`, `item`, `custom`	`all`	Which skins form the index: `all`, `high_value`/`low_value` (300 priciest/cheapest), `category`, `collection`, `color`, `item` (one base item's skins) or `custom` (your own list).
`basket_value`	query	string		The category, collection name, colour, item shortname, or for `custom` a comma-separated list of up to 300 itemdefids. Ignored for all/high_value/low_value.
`range`	query	one of `7d`, `30d`, `90d`, `1y`, `2y`, `3y`, `4y`, `5y`, `all`, `custom`	`90d`	Window: `7d`, `30d`, `90d`, `1y`, `2y`, `3y`, `4y`, `5y`, `all`, or `custom` with `start_date`/`end_date`. Spans over two years are downsampled to one point per week.
`start_date`	query	string		Custom range start (YYYY-MM-DD, inclusive). Only read when range=custom.
`end_date`	query	string		Custom range end (YYYY-MM-DD, inclusive). Only read when range=custom.
`weight_mode`	query	one of `equal`, `marketcap`	`equal`	`equal`: every constituent's % move counts the same. `marketcap`: weighted by price x Workshop subscribers, like an S&P-style index.
`smooth`	query	boolean	`False`	Apply a trailing 30-day moving average.
`trim_days`	query	integer	`0`	Mask each constituent's first N days of history (0-90) to drop launch-week volatility. (max 90, min 0)

GET/market/comparecopy URL

Overlay skins, baskets and indices on one date axis

The data behind rust.wiki/skins/compare: one shared `dates` axis and a `series` entry per token with `key`, `name`, `icon_url`, `is_basket`, `is_index` and `prices` aligned to the axis (null where that entry has no data yet). Skin and basket entries are prices in cents (a basket is the plain average of its members' prices); index entries are index levels rebased to 100. Spans over two years are downsampled to weekly points. Cached for 24 hours per parameter combination.

Parameter	In	Type	Default	Description

GET/market/eventscopy URL

Collection and skin release dates for a chart's window

Release markers to draw on an index or compare chart: `events` of `{date, label, icon_url, kind}` where `kind` is `collection` (the day a collection's first skin was accepted into the item store, labelled with the collection name) or `item` (an individual skin's acceptance date, only when scoped). Scoped to the skins of the given basket or compare entries so only releases related to what is plotted are returned; unscoped returns every collection release in the window. There is no DLC concept in Steam's data - store-acceptance dates are the release signal. Cached for an hour (5 minutes when scoped by `entries`).

Parameter	In	Type	Default	Description

`basket_type`	query	one of `all`, `high_value`, `low_value`, `category`, `collection`, `color`, `item`, `custom`		Scope to an index basket (same meaning as /market/index). Omit both this and `entries` for every collection's release.
`basket_value`	query	string		The basket's value (see /market/index).

GET/market/collection-valuecopy URL

Total value of a collection over time

The cost of owning one of every skin in the collection, day by day: `dates` and `values` (total in cents) plus `count`, the number of member skins with price history in the window. A skin whose history starts mid-window contributes its first known price backwards, so early totals are not "the sum of fewer skins". This is the chart on rust.wiki/collections/{slug}. Cached 15 minutes so today's point tracks the scraper.

Parameter	In	Type	Default	Description
`collection` required	query	string		Exact collection name (see /skins/collections). (min length 1, max length 120)
`range`	query	one of `7d`, `30d`, `90d`, `1y`, `2y`, `3y`, `4y`, `5y`, `all`	`90d`	Window: `7d`, `30d`, `90d`, `1y`, `2y`, `3y`, `4y`, `5y` or `all`.

GET/market/dealscopy URL

Executable buy-on-marketplace, sell-on-Steam flips

Every skin that can be bought on a third-party marketplace for less than it nets on Steam Community Market right now, as rust.wiki/skins/deals computes it. Per deal: `buy_market` and `buy_price` (the cheapest in-stock listing we poll, cents), `sell_url` (the Steam listing page), the two Steam references `bid_gross`/`bid_net` (highest buy order, and what you actually receive after Steam's 15% fee) and `ask_gross`/`ask_net` (lowest sell order, same), then for the chosen `steam_ref`: `sell_price` (the net proceeds), `sell_gross`, `spread_abs` (cents) and `spread_pct`. Only rows profitable under the chosen reference are returned. A stale buy order above a fresher ask is capped at the ask. Filters combine with AND; `search` matches the skin name case-insensitively. Marketplace links are not included. Recomputed every ~5 minutes from the marketplace poll.

Parameter	In	Type	Default	Description
`steam_ref`	query	one of `buy`, `sell`	`buy`	Steam exit price: `buy` = sell instantly into the highest buy order (default), `sell` = list just under the lowest sell order.
`sort`	query	one of `pct`, `abs`	`pct`	Best `pct` (spread as % of buy price) or `abs` (spread in cents) first.
`category`	query	one of `weapon`, `clothing`, `deployable`, `decoration`, `crate`, `resource`, `mask`, `none`		Only skins of this category.
`marketplace`	query	one of `Skinport`, `CSDealsMarketplace`, `DMarket`, `RustTM`, `CSTrade`, `Waxpeer`, `LISSkins`, `ManncoStore`, `SwapGGTrade`, `TradeitGG`, `RapidSkins`, `LootFarm`, `RustSkins`[]	`[]`	Only deals whose cheapest listing is on one of these marketplaces (repeat the parameter).
`min_price`	query	integer		Minimum buy price in cents.
`max_price`	query	integer		Maximum buy price in cents.
`search`	query	string		Case-insensitive substring of the skin name (or Steam market name).
`page`	query	integer	`1`	1-based page number. (min 1)
`per_page`	query	integer	`50`	Results per page (max 200). (max 200, min 1)

Supply is not something Steam exposes, so `amount` is the skin's Steam Workshop subscriber count - a stated approximation (subscribing is not owning) - and `value` is price x amount.

Charts

category charts · 2,000 requests/day

Ready-made PNG charts (dark site style, 792x412) for skin price history (line or candlestick), market indexes, collection value and multi-skin comparisons - the same images the rust.wiki Discord bot posts. Series come from Steam Community Market history; images are cached for 15 minutes. Use the JSON endpoints under /skins and /market when you want the numbers instead.

GET/charts/price/{itemdefid}.pngcopy URL

Price history chart for one skin (line or candlestick)

Renders the skin's Steam sale-price history over the window as a PNG: a filled line of daily prices, or weekly candlesticks with `style=candle`. The axis is in the requested currency. 404 when the skin is unknown or has fewer than two history points in the window.

Parameter	In	Type	Default	Description
`itemdefid` required	path	integer		Steam itemdefid of the skin.
`range`	query	string	`3m`	Window: 1d, 1w, 1m, 3m, 6m, 1y, 2y, 5y or all.
`style`	query	string	`line`	`line` (daily closes) or `candle` (weekly OHLC candlesticks).
`currency`	query	string	`USD`	ISO currency code for the y-axis (converted with the site's live rates); USD by default.

curl -H "X-API-Key: rw_live_YOUR_KEY" "https://rust.wiki/api/v1/charts/price/10138.png"

Returns: image/png - image/png image (about 42 KB)

GET/charts/index.pngcopy URL

Market index chart

The same index the /skins/index page and GET /market/index compute (baseline 100 at the start of the window, equal- or market-cap-weighted), drawn as a single filled line. Pair it with GET /market/index for the numbers and constituent count.

Parameter	In	Type	Default	Description
`basket_type`	query	string	`all`	all, high_value, low_value, category, collection, item or custom (comma-separated itemdefids in basket_value).
`basket_value`	query	string		The category / collection name / item shortname / itemdefid list for that basket type.
`range`	query	string	`90d`	Window: 7d, 30d, 90d, 1y, 2y, 3y, 4y, 5y or all.
`weight_mode`	query	string	`equal`	`equal` or `marketcap` weighting of constituents.

curl -H "X-API-Key: rw_live_YOUR_KEY" "https://rust.wiki/api/v1/charts/index.png"

Returns: image/png - image/png image (about 32 KB)

GET/charts/collection.pngcopy URL

Collection value chart

Equal-weighted index of every skin in the collection over the window, the chart the bot's /collection command posts. 404 for an unknown collection or too little history.

Parameter	In	Type	Default	Description
`collection` required	query	string		Collection name exactly as GET /skins/collections lists it.
`range`	query	string	`90d`	Window: 7d, 30d, 90d, 1y, 2y, 3y, 4y, 5y or all.

curl -H "X-API-Key: rw_live_YOUR_KEY" "https://rust.wiki/api/v1/charts/collection.png?collection=Forest%20Raiders"

Returns: image/png - image/png image (about 42 KB)

GET/charts/compare.pngcopy URL

Compare up to four skins, baskets or indexes on one chart

Overlays the entries' daily price series (baskets as their average, indexes as index points) exactly as the /skins/compare page does, rendered with a legend. `indexed` is the only mode where a $0.30 and a $300 skin read on one axis.

Parameter	In	Type	Default	Description
`entries` required	query	string		Comma-separated entries, the same tokens GET /market/compare accepts: an itemdefid, `category:<name>`, `collection:<name>`, `item:<shortname>` or `index:all`. First four are drawn.
`range`	query	string	`90d`	Window: 7d, 30d, 90d, 1y, 2y, 3y, 4y, 5y or all.
`mode`	query	string	`indexed`	`indexed` rebases every line to 100 at its first point (comparable); `price` draws raw USD prices.

curl -H "X-API-Key: rw_live_YOUR_KEY" "https://rust.wiki/api/v1/charts/compare.png?entries=10138,42007"

Returns: image/png - image/png image (about 58 KB)

Item store

category store · 10,000 requests/day

Rust's official in-game item store (the Steam item store for app 252490): the current weekly rotation, the permanent catalogue and DLC packs, plus every past rotation back to July 2015 (over 500). Store prices are what Facepunch charges, in integer USD cents; `market_price` is the skin's canonical wiki price on Steam Community Market, also cents. New rotations are detected from Steam's storefront within the hour and land every Thursday; payloads are cached 30-60 minutes.

GET/storecopy URL

What is purchasable in Rust's item store right now, in the three sections the wiki shows: `limited_time` (this week's rotation, most Workshop subscribers first), `general` (the permanent catalogue) and `dlc_packs` (bundles, by name). Each item carries `itemdefid`, `name`, `icon_url`, `category`, `store_price` (cents), `market_price` (its Steam Community Market price in cents, null when unlisted), `rarity`, `item_collection`, `creator_name`/`creator_avatar_url`, `subscriptions`, `est_supply` with `est_supply_source` (`workshop` subscribers for brand-new items, the market estimate otherwise), `base_item_name` and the usual flags. Also `recent_rotations` (the last six, newest first, `is_current` marks the open one), `active_rotation_id` and `next_rotation_at` (the open rotation's start + 7 days; rotations land on Thursdays). Steam's own purchase URL for any item is `https://store.steampowered.com/buyitem/252490/{itemdefid}/{quantity}\`. Cached 30 minutes.

GET/store/historycopy URL

Past item-store rotations

Every weekly rotation, newest first (the open one included): `id` (the rotation slug, `YYYY-MM-DD-HHMM`, or `General` for the permanent catalogue), `name` (Facepunch's label when it had one, usually null), `start`, `end` (null while current), `itemdefid_count` and `icons` - every skin in it as `{url, name}`, DLC packs excluded. With `search`, only the rotations that sold a matching skin are returned (same shape, newest first), which answers "when was X in the store?". Full item lists via GET /store/rotations/{rotation_id}. Cached for an hour; searches are computed live.

Parameter	In	Type	Default	Description
`search`	query	string		Only rotations that contained a skin whose name matches this (case-insensitive substring), e.g. `Tempered`.
`page`	query	integer	`1`	1-based page number. (min 1)

GET/store/rotations/{rotation_id}copy URL

One rotation's full item list

One rotation as the wiki's /store/rotation page shows it: `rotation` (`id`, `name`, `start`, `end`, `itemdefid_count` - the number of items that still resolve in the catalogue) and its items split into `limited_time`, `general` and `dlc_packs`, each item in the same shape as GET /store, including today's `market_price` and `is_available_on_store` (a past rotation can still contain evergreen catalogue items). Cached for an hour.

Parameter	In	Type	Default	Description

Workshop

category workshop · 10,000 requests/day

The complete Steam Workshop archive of Rust skin submissions (~158,000 and growing, every item tagged 'Skin'), polled incrementally every few minutes so new uploads appear within minutes: title, author SteamID64, preview image, submission time, the target item as Steam tags it, subscriber count, vote score, and whether Facepunch accepted it into the game (with the in-game `accepted_itemdefid` that links to /skins). Search is a plain case-insensitive substring match on the title. Results are cached for 15 minutes.

GET/workshopcopy URL

Browse or search Workshop submissions

One page of submissions. Each carries `workshopid` (the Steam published-file id), `title`, `author_steamid64`, `preview_image_url`, `submitted_at` (UTC ISO-8601, may be null), `accepted` and `accepted_itemdefid` (the in-game item definition id when Facepunch accepted it - use it with `/skins/{itemdefid}`), `target_item_tag`, `subscriptions` and `vote_score` (Steam's 0-1 score; both null when Steam has not reported them). Same filters, ordering and cache as the /workshop page.

Parameter	In	Type	Default	Description
`search`	query	string		Case-insensitive substring match on the submission title.
`target`	query	string		Only submissions for this target item, exactly as the Workshop tags it (e.g. `AK47`, `Garage Door`); `/workshop/targets` lists every value.
`sort`	query	one of `newest`, `popular`	`newest`	`newest` = most recently submitted first; `popular` = most subscribers first.
`accepted`	query	one of `any`, `yes`, `no`	`any`	`yes` = only submissions Facepunch accepted into the game; `no` = only ones it has not.
`page`	query	integer	`1`	1-based page number. (min 1)
`per_page`	query	integer	`50`	Results per page (max 200). (max 200, min 1)

Reference data

category reference · 25,000 requests/day

Static Rust reference data and site utilities: 3,500+ console commands with syntax, defaults and admin permission; give-command item shortnames; the 60 fixed monuments (tier, safe zone, radiation, recyclers, tunnel/Chinook/heli flags); 86 loot tables with per-item drop chance, amount and condition; CCTV camera codes; 200 world entities (animals, NPCs, resource nodes) with HP and loot; every building piece with health, decay, build/repair/upkeep costs and time-to-destroy by weapon; the four tech trees with prerequisite edges; design notes paraphrased from The Art of Rust; the craft, recycle and blueprint calculator datasets, the raid cost table and the upkeep decay constants, plus computed answers from the same calculators (raw materials to craft a list, recycle yields, explosives to raid a set of pieces, a base's daily upkeep, the best plant crossbreeding layout); a search over the RustProfit blog's Rust guides; current Twitch and Kick drops; Facepunch's update feed; and the USD exchange rates the site prices with. Game data only changes when Facepunch patches and is cached server-side for 30-60 minutes (the raid table for a day); updates and rates are near-live (worker freshness lives under /status).

GET/tech-tree/{tree}copy URL

One tech tree: nodes and prerequisite edges

The full research graph for one workbench. `nodes` carry `id`, `shortname` and `name` of the unlockable item, `icon_url`, `cost` (scrap to unlock that node) and `total_cost` (cumulative scrap along the cheapest path from the root), plus `x`/`y`: these are LAYOUT PIXELS from the site's own tree renderer (the top-left of a 110x78 card, see `card_size`), not game data. `edges` are the prerequisite links, each with `from_id`/ `to_id` (research `from` before `to`) and the card-centre pixel endpoints `x1`,`y1`,`x2`,`y2` the page draws. Node ids are only stable until the tree is re-seeded. Cached for one hour.

Parameter	In	Type	Default	Description
`tree` required	path	one of `workbench1`, `workbench2`, `workbench3`, `engineering`		Which research graph: Workbench Level 1/2/3 or the Engineering Workbench.

GET/design-notescopy URL

Design notes from The Art of Rust

Curated trivia paraphrased from The Art of Rust (Facepunch Studios / Dark Horse Books, January 2026): design inspirations, cut content and in-universe lore. Each note carries `id`, `chapter`, `title`, `text` (an original paraphrase, never a quotation), `page` (the book page cited), `tags` (the wiki pages it belongs to) and `cut_content`. Text only - the book's artwork is never reproduced. Fixed editorial data.

Parameter	In	Type	Description
`chapter`	query	one of `Characters`, `Bases & World`, `Weapons & Tech`, `Vehicles`, `Events & DLC`	Restrict to one chapter of the book.
`tag`	query	string	Only notes tagged for one wiki page: `item:<shortname>`, `monument:<slug>`, `building:<slug>` or `world:<slug>`.
`cut`	query	boolean	`true` = only notes about cut/unshipped content; `false` = only notes about shipped content.

GET/calculators/upkeepcopy URL

Upkeep decay brackets and decay times

Rust's dedicated-server upkeep defaults (the `decay.bracket_*` and `decay.duration_*` ConVars, as most servers run them). `brackets` are applied in order to a base's block count: the first 15 blocks cost 10% of their build cost per day, the next 35 cost 15%, the next 75 cost 20%, and every block beyond 125 costs 33.3% (`blocks` null = unbounded); a base's blended daily rate is the block-weighted average of the brackets it fills, paid in the resources each piece was built from. `decay_hours` is how long an unmaintained piece of each grade takes to decay completely. Fixed constants, no computation happens server-side.

GET/calculators/raidcopy URL

Raid cost table: explosives and sulfur per building piece

The dataset behind the raid calculator. `explosives` lists every explosive the building durability data covers: `shortname`, `name`, `icon_url`, `group` (`staples`, `other` or `siege`), `staple` (true for rockets, C4, satchel charges, explosive 5.56 ammo and beancans - the page's default set), `sulfur_per_unit` and `raw_cost_per_unit` (the crafting recipe resolved down to raw resources such as sulfur, charcoal, metal fragments and low grade fuel, per single unit; both null for loot-only explosives like MLRS rockets), `batch` (units one craft makes: explosive ammo 2, mortar shells 2) and `recipe_source` (`wiki` = the wiki's own crafting data, `fallback` = Rust's standard recipe where that data has none yet, e.g. rockets). `targets` is every building piece with explosive data (`slug`, `name`, `grade`, `health`), each with `costs` - for every explosive that can damage it, `required` (how many destroy one piece), `damage_per_unit` and `sulfur` (null for loot-only) - and `cheapest_staple`, the single staple explosive that destroys it for the least sulfur. Damage from different explosives adds up, so a cheaper mix can be computed from `damage_per_unit`. Doors and deployables are not covered yet. Cached for 24 hours.

Parameter	In	Type	Default	Description
`grade`	query	one of `Twig`, `Wood`, `Stone`, `Metal`, `Armored`, `Boat`		Restrict `targets` to one building grade.

GET/calculators/craft/computecopy URL

Raw materials to craft a list of items

Resolves every recipe down to raw materials, per unit (items made in batches, like gunpowder, are divided by their batch size), exactly as the craft calculator page does. `raw_materials` is the total, largest first; `items` echoes each input with its direct recipe; `unknown` lists inputs that matched no item.

Parameter	In	Type	Default	Description
`items` required	query	string		Comma-separated `shortname:quantity` pairs (display names work too; quantity defaults to 1). (min length 1, max length 2000)

Inventories

category inventory · 1,000 requests/day

Rust skin inventories of any public Steam account, valued at the canonical wiki price (Steam lowest sell order, falling back to highest buy order): every skin with quantity, price and value, totals, a category breakdown and a one-year value history. A read is served from the stored snapshot for 24 hours; `refresh=true` forces a live Steam read (limited per key per day). Values are USD cents, except `value_history`, which is USD dollars at each day's Steam sale price (so its latest point can sit below `total_value`, which uses current asks). Also the inventory leaderboard and daily snapshots.

Most valuable inventories ever checked

The rust.wiki/inventory leaderboard: every inventory anyone has looked up, ranked by total value at its last check (values are re-priced each time an inventory is viewed or by the daily warmer for the top 20). Includes the network-wide totals. 20 per page.

Parameter	In	Type	Default	Description

Value a Steam account's Rust skins

Every Rust skin the account holds with `quantity`, unit `price` and `value` (cents), sorted by value, and the same attributes /skins filters on (`collection`, `creator`, `item_shortname`, `item_name`, `est_supply`, `released_year`, `colors`, and `flags`: limited_time, permanent, marketable, tradable, breakable, glows, commodity, drop), plus `total_value`, `item_count`, `distinct_skins`, a `categories` breakdown with share percentages, the owner's display name and avatar, and `value_history` (the current holdings re-priced at each of the last 365 days, in USD DOLLARS, not cents, at each day's Steam sale price - so its latest point can be below `total_value`, which is at current asking prices). `found` is false for private or empty inventories; `stale` is true when Steam was unreachable and the last stored snapshot was re-priced instead.

Parameter	In	Type	Default	Description
`steamid` required	path	string		17-digit SteamID64 (resolve URLs and vanity names with /players/resolve).
`refresh`	query	boolean	`False`	Force a live Steam read instead of the stored snapshot (max 100 per key per day).

The inventory's value over time: the account's current holdings re-priced at each day's Steam SALE price (median sale), `values` in USD cents, oldest first - the line on the rust.wiki inventory chart. It shows how the market moved, not when items were bought. `headline_total_value` is the total at current Steam ASKING prices (lowest sell order) as of `headline_checked_at`, the number shown at the top of the inventory page; for thinly traded skins it can sit well above the latest point here. Only inventories that have been looked up have a series. Read from stored data: never a live Steam call.

Parameter	In	Type	Default	Description
`steamid` required	path	string		17-digit SteamID64.

GET/inventory/{steamid}/valuationcopy URL

What an inventory is realistically worth

The inventory valued three ways, plus what selling would actually raise. `at_asks` is the headline number (each skin at its cheapest Steam listing, falling back to the best buy order); `at_bids` is every skin at its best buy order; `at_recent_sales` is every skin at its latest Steam median sale price (the inventory chart's basis). `sell_now` walks each skin's real buy-order ladder for the quantity held: `units_sellable` of `units_held` could be sold instantly for `gross` (what buyers pay) and `net_after_fees` (after Steam's 15%). `biggest_ask_gaps` lists the skins whose cheapest listing sits furthest above their recent sales - thin order books where the headline is least reliable. All cents. Uses the stored holdings (the last lookup) and current order books: never a live Steam call; look the inventory up first if `found` is false.

Parameter	In	Type	Default	Description
`steamid` required	path	string		17-digit SteamID64.

Casino games

category games · 10,000 requests/day

The rustprofit.com Rust-skin casino as data: every finished round of the public games (roulette, coinflip, jackpot, crash) with pot, result, participants as the site shows them and the provably-fair seeds the site reveals for finished rounds; the per-game seed pages; a pure verifier that recomputes any outcome from its seeds; and the fairness scheme itself. All amounts are integer USD cents (skin values at deposit time). The `/games/me/...` endpoints return the API key owner's OWN rustprofit.com account history, stats and client seed - never anyone else's.

GET/gamescopy URL

Every game on rustprofit.com with a one-line description, whether its finished rounds are public here (`public_rounds`: roulette, coinflip, jackpot and crash have GET /games/{game}/rounds; mines, tower and upgrade are single-player and only appear in the key owner's own GET /games/me/history), its house edge as a fraction, and `live_wagered_cents` - the value currently sitting in that game's open round(s), from the same cache the site's header pot display reads (null if the cache is cold). All money is integer USD cents.

How the provably-fair system works, as data

The commit-then-reveal scheme behind every game, written out so a program (or a reader) can re-implement the verification: per game the inputs, the exact HMAC-SHA256 message, the modulo, how the roll maps to an outcome (roulette colours, coinflip/jackpot ticket ranges, mines and tower Fisher-Yates position draws, the crash-point and upgrade formulas), which id goes into the message (the round `id` for roulette/coinflip/ jackpot, the shared `game_id` for mines/tower/crash/upgrade), how EOS block hashes and the player's client seed keep the house from choosing the message, when each server seed is revealed, and the house edge. Static - mirrors app code, and GET /games/verify applies it.

GET/games/verifycopy URL

Recompute a round's outcome from its revealed seeds

A pure function - no database, nothing stored. Applies the exact formulas in GET /games/fairness and returns `server_seed_hash` (sha256 of the seed, to match against the hash the site published before the round) plus the recomputed outcome: roulette `roll` and `colour`; coinflip/jackpot `ticket` (compare with the round's `ticket_range`s); mines `roll` and `mine_positions`; tower `bad_positions` per row; crash `roll` and `crash_point`; upgrade `roll` (and `win` when `chance` is given). Missing per-game inputs return 422.

Parameter	In	Type	Default	Description
`game` required	query	string		Which game's formula to apply.
`server_seed` required	query	string		The revealed server seed (`server_seed` on a finished round or seeds page). (min length 1, max length 512)
`public_seed`	query	string		Roulette only: the day's public seed shown next to the hash (five random numbers 1-39 run together).
`eos_block_hash`	query	string		Coinflip/jackpot only: the irreversible EOS block id (`eos_block_hash` on the round).
`round`	query	integer		Roulette/coinflip/jackpot only: the round id (`id` of the round, `round` in its `fair` block).
`client_seed`	query	string		Mines/tower/crash/upgrade only: the player's client seed shown on the round.
`game_id`	query	integer		Mines/tower/crash/upgrade only: the SHARED game id (`game_id` on the round / history row), not the round id.
`mine_count`	query	integer		Mines only: how many mines the round was played with.
`cols_per_row`	query	integer		Tower only: tiles per row (2-4).
`difficulty`	query	string		Tower only: easy, medium or hard (derives bad_count); or pass bad_count directly.
`bad_count`	query	integer		Tower only: bad tiles per row, if you have it instead of difficulty.
`rows`	query	integer	`8`	Tower only: rows to draw (the site plays 8). (max 64, min 1)
`chance`	query	number		Upgrade only (optional): the win chance as a fraction, e.g. 0.45, to also evaluate the win.

GET/games/me/historycopy URL

Your own game history

The API key owner's own finished rounds across the seven games, one row per round played (the same source as the site's History page), newest first by default: `type` (the game), `game_id` (the shared id used in the fairness message for mines/tower/crash/upgrade), `round_id` (the per-game round id - the `id` of GET /games/{game}/rounds/{round_id} for roulette/coinflip/jackpot/crash and of the seeds pages), `amount_cents` (bet), `payout_cents`, `win`, `completed_at` and `details` (per-game facts such as multiplier, mines count, crash point, revealed server seed, the skins involved as `{name, classid, price}`). Trade-offer, bot and asset identifiers are removed. Only the key owner's own account is ever returned.

Parameter	In	Type	Default	Description
`game`	query	string		Only this game; omit for all seven.
`win`	query	boolean		true = only wins, false = only losses, omit for both.
`sort`	query	string	`newest`	newest (default), amount_desc or amount_asc (by bet amount).
`page`	query	integer	`1`	1-based page number. (min 1)
`per_page`	query	integer	`50`	Results per page (max 200). (max 200, min 1)

Finished rounds of a public game, newest first

Completed rounds only, newest first. Every row has `id`, `started_at`/`ended_at`, `result`, the pot and tax in cents, the participants as the site's own round page shows them (public `user_id`, `username`, `avatar`, `badge`, `level`, bet in cents - never SteamIDs) and a `fair` block: `server_seed_hash`, `server_seed` (null with `seed_revealed: false` for roulette rounds under the still-active daily seed; `seed_id` is that day's row on /games/roulette/seeds), the public input (roulette `public_seed`, coinflip/jackpot `eos_block` + `eos_block_hash`, crash `client_seed`), the id the HMAC uses and the exact `message`. Per game: roulette `result.colour`/`number` and `bets_cents` per colour; coinflip `creator`/`opponent` with `side`, `ticket_range`, `win_chance_pct`, `is_house_bot`; jackpot `participants` with `ticket_range`/`win_chance_pct` and `result.winner`; crash `result.crash_point`/ `cashed_out_at`/`win` with the single `player`. Item lists are on GET /games/{game}/rounds/{round_id}.

GET/games/{game}/seedscopy URL

Revealed seeds of finished rounds, as the site's fairness page lists them

Exactly what each game's own public seeds page returns, 15 per page, newest first - nothing added. Field names are the site's: `server_random` is the revealed server seed, `server_random_hashed` its SHA-256 commitment. Roulette lists the daily seed pairs (`public_seed`, `start_roll`/`end_roll` = the round ids the seed covered, `active`; the active day's `server_random` is withheld). Coinflip/jackpot rows carry `target_eos_block_hash` and the drawn `ticket`; mines/tower/crash/upgrade rows carry `client_seed` and the round's parameters (`mine_count`; `cols_per_row`/`difficulty`; `crash_point`/`cashed_out_at_multiplier`; `chance`/`multiplier`/`direction`/`offset`/`roll`) with `win`. `id_` is the round id. Feed a row into GET /games/verify (for the seed-pair games use the round's `game_id` from /games/me/history or /games/crash/rounds, not `id_`).

Parameter	In	Type	Default	Description
`game` required	path	string		Any of the seven games.
`page`	query	integer	`1`	1-based page; 15 rows per page (the site's own page size). (min 1)

Rust servers

category servers · 10,000 requests/day

The Rust server directory from servers.rustprofit.com: ~26,000 community and official servers discovered through Valve's master server list and re-queried over Steam's A2S protocol every poll cycle (roughly hourly at the current table size), with per-server player-count history, detected wipes (seed/size changes), community votes and ratings, map previews with monuments and biomes, and site-wide totals. `is_online` is true while a server keeps answering its polls, `last_seen_at` is the last answer, `last_polled_at` the last attempt, and `last_seen_at: null` means Steam lists the server but it has never answered us (no history, wipes or map). `gather_rate` and `is_official` are parsed from the server name by community convention, not reported by the game. Owner contact details, claim identities and voter identities are never exposed. Site-wide totals refresh with every poll cycle; most other responses are cached for five minutes.

GET/serverscopy URL

Each result is the full public server record: identity and connect details (`ip`, `game_port`, `query_port`, `connect` as a `steam://` URI), `map`, `world_seed`, `world_size`, `country`/`country_name`, live `current_players`/`max_players`/`queued_players`, the `kind` (official/modded/vanilla) and `is_*` flags, `password_protected`, `vac_enabled`, `gather_rate` with its `gather_bucket`, `group_limit` with its `group` label, `tags`, owner-supplied `description` (first 500 characters), `banner_url`, `website_url`, `discord_url`, `first_seen_at`/`last_seen_at`/`last_polled_at`, the aggregates `votes`, `rating` (1-5 average, null when unrated) and `last_wipe_at`, and the server's page `url` plus embeddable `widget_url`/`badge_url`. Ties in every sort are broken by `id` so pages never overlap.

Parameter	In	Type	Default	Description
`search`	query	string		Case-insensitive substring match on the server name.
`country`	query	string		ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 country the server is hosted in (GeoIP of its address); `/servers/countries` lists the values in use.
`kind`	query	one of `vanilla`, `modded`, `official`		`vanilla` = not modded; `modded` = reports a modded flag over A2S; `official` = a Facepunch-run public server (by name convention).
`group`	query	one of `solo`, `duo`, `trio`		Team-size cap: `solo` (1), `duo` (2) or `trio` (3). Only servers whose cap is known match.
`gather`	query	one of `2x`, `3x`, `5x`, `10x`		Gather-rate bucket parsed from the server name: `2x` (2-2.99), `3x` (3-4.99), `5x` (5-9.99) or `10x` (10 and above). Servers with no `Nx` in their name never match.
`monument`	query	string		Only servers whose current map (when a preview has been generated) contains this monument type, exactly as `/servers/monument-types` lists it.
`biome`	query	one of `snow`, `desert`, `forest`, `tundra`, `jungle`		Only servers whose generated map preview is mostly this biome (its percentage is the highest of the five).
`min_players`	query	integer		Only servers with at least this many players online right now.
`min_rating`	query	number		Only servers whose average community rating (1-5) is at least this.
`online`	query	boolean	`True`	`true` (default) = only servers that were online at their last poll; `false` = only servers currently marked offline.
`sort`	query	one of `players`, `votes`, `rating`, `wiped`, `name`	`players`	`players` = most players online first (default); `votes` = most community votes; `rating` = highest average rating; `wiped` = most recently wiped; `name` = alphabetical.
`page`	query	integer	`1`	1-based page number. (min 1)
`per_page`	query	integer	`50`	Results per page (max 200). (max 200, min 1)

GET/servers/wipescopy URL

Recently wiped servers

Wipes detected across every online server in the window, newest first - the feed behind servers.rustprofit.com/wipes. A wipe is detected when a server's `world_seed` or `world_size` changes between two polls, or when the last-wipe time it advertises moves past our previous poll (for servers with A2S rules disabled). Each entry has `detected_at`, the old and new seed/size, and the full server record. Expect thousands of entries in the 24 hours after Rust's monthly forced wipe (first Thursday). Cached for five minutes.

Parameter	In	Type	Default	Description
`hours`	query	integer	`24`	Look-back window in hours (1-168). The site's /wipes page shows 24. (max 168, min 1)

GET/servers/{server_id}/historycopy URL

Player-count history for one server

The per-poll `player_count`/`queued_count` readings behind the server page's 24-hour chart, oldest first, as `points` of `{t, players, queued}`. One reading lands per poll cycle (roughly hourly); when the window holds more than 500 readings they are averaged into equal time buckets (`resolution_seconds`, null when the points are raw) so a response never exceeds 500 points. Also `peak_players`, `avg_players` and `point_count`. A server that has never answered a poll has an empty series. Cached for five minutes.

Parameter	In	Type	Default	Description
`server_id` required	path	integer		The server's numeric id. (min 1)
`days`	query	integer	`1`	How many days back to return (1-30). Snapshots are pruned nightly to the configured retention window (7 days by default - see `snapshot_retention_days` on `/servers/stats`), so longer ranges come back only as far as the table holds. (max 30, min 1)

Votes are one per user per server per day; who cast them is never exposed. Ratings are a separate 1-5 score, see `rating`/`rating_count` on `/servers/{id}`. Cached for five minutes.

Parameter	In	Type	Default	Description
`server_id` required	path	integer		The server's numeric id. (min 1)

Network status

category status · 10,000 requests/day

Live health for the whole RustProfit network - rustprofit.com, rust.wiki, servers.rustprofit.com, rust.wiki/inventory (formerly inventory.rustprofit.com) and blog.rustprofit.com - plus the freshness of every background worker that keeps their data current (price scrapers, marketplace pollers, store/workshop/news pollers, game loops, trade bots). Use /status/data to see WHEN each dataset last changed and how often it refreshes, and only re-fetch the heavy endpoints after that timestamp moves: it saves your quota and our servers. Site probes are cached for 60 seconds; worker heartbeats and dataset timestamps are read live.

GET/status/datacopy URL

When each dataset last changed and how often it refreshes

The quota-saver: for every dataset the API serves, `updated_at` (the newest timestamp actually in the table, UTC) and `refresh_seconds` (how often it can change), with the endpoints it feeds. Poll this cheap endpoint and only re-fetch a heavy payload such as /market/prices or /servers when its dataset's `updated_at` has moved; cache reference data (items, monuments,...) locally since it only changes with Facepunch's monthly patch. Timestamps are read live from the database and cached for 60 seconds.

GET/status/workerscopy URL

Background worker heartbeats, grouped by site

Every public background worker with `status` (ok / stale / unknown), `last_seen` (UTC), `seconds_ago` and its `expected_interval` - the cadence past which it counts as stale. Grouped by the site whose data it keeps fresh: game loops, trade bots and payouts for the casino; price, marketplace, store, workshop and news pollers for the wiki; discovery and polling for the server directory; the inventory backfill and leaderboard warmer.

Paper funds

category funds · 5,000 requests/day

rust.wiki paper-trading funds: every signed-in user can run a public $1,000 fund of skin picks whose trades are an append-only ledger priced at the canonical wiki price at execution. Read-only here; values in USD cents.

GET/funds/leaderboardcopy URL

Public funds ranked by total value

All public funds that have traded at least once, ranked by current total value (cash + holdings at live wiki prices). `starting_cash` is the $1,000 every fund begins with. Cached for 120 seconds.

For AI agents and LLM tools

MCP server: https://rust.wiki/mcp exposes the core of this API as Model Context Protocol tools, so Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor and other assistants can query skins, prices, items, the item store, reference data and servers directly. It needs no key (keyless clients share a quota; send X-API-Key for your own). Setup for each client.

This reference is also published in machine-friendly forms generated from the same source as this page, so they never drift:

/llms.txt: a short index of the site and API per the llms.txt convention; /llms-full.txt is the index plus the whole reference in one file.
/docs.md: this entire reference as Markdown, including example responses for every endpoint.
/openapi.json: OpenAPI 3.1 with parameter schemas, example responses and the quota table under x-quotas. Point any OpenAPI-aware tool or agent framework at it.

Calling the JSON API directly still needs an API key: a human creates one at /api-keys and gives it to the agent. Each key's daily usage per category is shown there. The MCP server is the keyless route.

The rust.wiki API is a free JSON API for Rust game data: every item with recipes and recycle yields, every skin with live Steam prices, sale history and order books, third-party marketplace prices and deals, the market index and market cap, the current and past item store, the Steam Workshop, monuments, loot tables, server commands, CCTV codes, building and world data, the tech tree, calculators, Facepunch updates, the Rust server directory, Rust player stats from the official Steam Web API, Steam inventory valuations, rustprofit.com casino rounds with provably-fair data, PNG charts, network status and the paper-trading funds leaderboard. Sign in with Steam to create a key; it costs nothing and every category has a generous daily quota.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the base URL of the Rust API?

https://rust.wiki/api/v1 - every endpoint on this page is relative to it, and all responses are JSON except the chart endpoints, which return PNG images.

Is there a rate limit?

Only generous daily quotas per category (for example 25,000 requests a day for skins) and a burst limit of 300 requests a minute per key. GET /me shows what your key has used and has left today, and it is never counted.

Does the API support CORS so I can call it from a browser?

Yes - cross-origin GET requests with the X-API-Key header are allowed, so a static web page can call it directly. Keep in mind that a key embedded in public JavaScript is visible to anyone who views the source.

How fresh are the prices?

Steam order books are polled continuously (about every 12 minutes per skin), third-party marketplaces every few minutes, and the bulk price endpoints are regenerated at most every 5 minutes. Polling faster than that only spends quota.

Is the Rust API free?

Yes. Create a key at rust.wiki/api-keys after signing in with Steam. Every key gets thousands of requests per day in each category, and the only condition is a visible link back to rust.wiki from whatever you build.

Where do the Rust skin prices come from?

Steam Community Market order books (lowest sell order, falling back to highest buy order) polled continuously, plus a dozen third-party marketplaces polled every few minutes. All prices are USD cents.

Can I get Rust player stats through the API?

Yes - /api/v1/players/{steamid} returns profile, bans, playtime, every Rust stat Steam exposes and all achievements, as long as the profile's game details are public.

Is there an OpenAPI schema or something for AI agents?

Yes: rust.wiki/mcp is an MCP server AI assistants can add directly, with no key needed. For agent frameworks, /openapi.json is OpenAPI 3.1 with example responses, /docs.md is the full reference as Markdown and /llms.txt is an llms.txt index. All of them are generated from the same definitions as this page.

What happens when I hit the quota?

You get HTTP 429 with a Retry-After header; the daily quota resets at 00:00 UTC. Every response also carries X-RateLimit-Remaining so you can pace yourself. Ask on the support page if you need more.
