Tumblr search

Tumblr posts matching a search, as tumblr.com shows them to logged-out visitors (the first page, about 15-20 posts): text, images, videos, links, tags, note, like and reblog counts, the blog and the reblog trail, plus the related communities (name, members, tags) and related tags Tumblr shows beside the results. Filter by post type and by how recent posts are; sort by top or recent. Every response includes credits_used: the credits this call cost.

Parameters

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

Example

curl "https://api.api.sh/tumblr/v1/search?q=cats" \
  -H "x-api-key: $APISH_KEY"

import os, requests

res = requests.get(
    "https://api.api.sh/tumblr/v1/search",
    params={"q": "cats"},
    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/tumblr/v1/search");
url.searchParams.set("q", "cats");

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).
