MediaWiki API help

This is an auto-generated MediaWiki API documentation page.

Documentation and examples: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/API

Modulo principale

Stato: Tutte le funzioni e caratteristiche mostrate su questa pagina dovrebbero funzionare, ma l'API è ancora in fase d'attivo sviluppo, e potrebbe cambiare in qualsiasi momenento. Iscriviti alla the mediawiki-api-announce mailing list per essere informato sugli aggiornamenti.

Istruzioni sbagliate: quando vengono impartite all'API delle istruzioni sbagliate, un'intestazione HTTP verrà inviata col messaggio "MediaWiki-API-Error" e sia al valore dell'intestazione sia al codice d'errore verrà impostato lo stesso valore. Per maggiori informazioni leggi API:Errori ed avvertimenti (in inglese).

Parametri:
action

Azione da compiere.

One of the following values: block, checktoken, clearhasmsg, compare, createaccount, delete, edit, emailuser, expandtemplates, feedcontributions, feedrecentchanges, feedwatchlist, filerevert, help, imagerotate, import, login, logout, managetags, move, opensearch, options, paraminfo, parse, patrol, protect, purge, query, revisiondelete, rollback, rsd, setnotificationtimestamp, stashedit, tag, tokens, unblock, undelete, upload, userrights, watch
Predefinito: help
format

Formato dell'output.

One of the following values: dbg, dbgfm, json, jsonfm, none, php, phpfm, rawfm, txt, txtfm, xml, xmlfm, yaml, yamlfm
Predefinito: jsonfm
maxlag

Maximum lag can be used when MediaWiki is installed on a database replicated cluster. To save actions causing any more site replication lag, this parameter can make the client wait until the replication lag is less than the specified value. In case of excessive lag, error code maxlag is returned with a message like Waiting for $host: $lag seconds lagged.
See Manual: Maxlag parameter for more information.

Type: integer
smaxage

Set the s-maxage HTTP cache control header to this many seconds. Errors are never cached.

Type: integer
Predefinito: 0
maxage

Set the max-age HTTP cache control header to this many seconds. Errors are never cached.

Type: integer
Predefinito: 0
assert

Verifica che l'utente sia loggato se si è impostato utente, o che abbia i permessi di bot se si è impostato bot.

One of the following values: user, bot
requestid

Tutti i valori forniti saranno implementati nella risposta. Potrebbero venir utilizzati per distinguere le richieste.

servedby

Includi nei risultati il nome dell'host che ha servito la richiesta.

Type: boolean (details)
curtimestamp

Includere il timestamp corrente nel risultato.

Type: boolean (details)
origin

When accessing the API using a cross-domain AJAX request (CORS), set this to the originating domain. This must be included in any pre-flight request, and therefore must be part of the request URI (not the POST body). This must match one of the origins in the Origin header exactly, so it has to be set to something like https://en.wikipedia.org or https://meta.wikimedia.org. If this parameter does not match the Origin header, a 403 response will be returned. If this parameter matches the Origin header and the origin is whitelisted, an Access-Control-Allow-Origin header will be set.

uselang

Language to use for message translations. A list of codes may be fetched from action=query&meta=siteinfo with siprop=languages, or specify user to use the current user's language preference, or specify content to use this wiki's content language.

Predefinito: user
Esempi:
Help for the main module.
api.php?action=help
All help in one page.
api.php?action=help&recursivesubmodules=1
Permissions:
writeapi

Granted to: all, user, bot

Use higher limits in API queries (slow queries: 500; fast queries: 5000). The limits for slow queries also apply to multivalue parameters.
Granted to: bot, sysop

Data types

Some parameter types in API requests need further explanation:

boolean
Boolean parameters work like HTML checkboxes: if the parameter is specified, regardless of value, it is considered true. For a false value, omit the parameter entirely.
timestamp
Timestamps may be specified in several formats. ISO 8601 date and time is recommended. All times are in UTC, any included timezone is ignored.

  • Generic numeric format, 2001-01-15 14:56:00 (optional timezone of GMT, +##, or -## is ignored)
