What AniList users recommend to fans of a title, highest rated first: rating, id, title, format, average score, link and cover. Pass next_page back as page.

Every response includes credits_used: the credits this call cost.

Parameters

name	type	description
`id`	string	AniList id (from an anilist.co link), e.g. `154587` (Frieren). Example: `154587`
`mal_id`	string	Or the MyAnimeList id, with `type` (ANIME or MANGA).
`type`	ANIME \| MANGA	With mal_id: ANIME (default) or MANGA.
`per_page`	integer	Per page (default and max 25).
`page`	integer	Page number (default 1). Pass `next_page` back; null on the last page.

Every endpoint also takes fresh, raw, fields (see lean responses and caching).

Example

curl "https://api.api.sh/anilist/v1/recommendations?id=154587" \
  -H "x-api-key: $APISH_KEY"

import os, requests

res = requests.get(
    "https://api.api.sh/anilist/v1/recommendations",
    params={"id": "154587"},
    headers={"x-api-key": os.environ["APISH_KEY"]},
    timeout=120,
)
res.raise_for_status()
data = res.json()

const url = new URL("https://api.api.sh/anilist/v1/recommendations");
url.searchParams.set("id", "154587");

const res = await fetch(url, { headers: { "x-api-key": process.env.APISH_KEY } });
if (!res.ok) throw new Error(`${res.status} ${await res.text()}`);
const data = await res.json();

Response

A JSON object with the fields described above, plus raw (the source's own data), cached, fetched_at and credits_used. Errors return {"success": false, "error": "…"} with the HTTP status (see errors). A lookup that ran but found nothing (404) costs the price above; refused calls and errors on our side are free (what's charged).

The fastest way to see the full response is the playground: it runs this endpoint with your account and shows the exact JSON.
