{"openapi":"3.1.0","info":{"title":"Pixelfed API","version":"1.0.0","description":"Live data for Pixelfed, the federated photo-sharing network — the open Instagram alternative built on ActivityPub — no key, nothing cached. This reads a Pixelfed creator's public profile and photos directly. The account endpoint resolves a @username (optionally @user@instance) to its profile: display name, bio, follower and following counts, total posts, avatar and join date — Pixelfed's founder @dansup resolves to a profile with tens of thousands of followers. The posts endpoint returns a creator's most recent photo posts from their public feed, each with the image URL, the caption, the hashtags and a link to the post. The hashtags endpoint summarises what a creator posts about — their most-used hashtags and recent posting activity. Point it at anyone on pixelfed.social, or with user@instance at anyone across the Pixelfed fediverse. This is the creator-profile-and-photo layer for any social, photography, marketing or fediverse app. Live from Pixelfed, nothing stored. Distinct from fediverse-statistics and microblog APIs — this is Pixelfed creator profiles and their photos. 4 endpoints.","contact":{"name":"PremiumApi","url":"https://www.oanor.com/by/premiumapi"}},"servers":[{"url":"https://api.oanor.com/pixelfed-api","description":"oanor gateway"}],"tags":[{"name":"Pixelfed"},{"name":"Meta"}],"components":{"securitySchemes":{"oanorKey":{"type":"apiKey","in":"header","name":"x-oanor-key","description":"Get your key at https://www.oanor.com/developer/keys"}}},"security":[{"oanorKey":[]}],"paths":{"/v1/account":{"get":{"operationId":"get_v1_account","tags":["Pixelfed"],"summary":"A creator's profile","description":"","parameters":[{"name":"user","in":"query","required":true,"description":"Username or user@instance","schema":{"type":"string"},"example":"dansup"}],"security":[{"oanorKey":[]}],"responses":{"200":{"description":"OK","content":{"application/json":{"example":{"data":{"bio":"Hi, I'm the developer behind @Pixelfed ! #pixelfed #photography #nature #dogs #fedi22","url":"https://pixelfed.social/dansup","acct":"dansup","posts":395,"avatar":"https://pixelfed.social/storage/avatars/000/000/000/000/000/000/2/mLZr2R47XEwbmasH2M3P_avatar.jpg?v=57","locked":false,"instance":"pixelfed.social","username":"dansup","followers":97915,"following":210,"created_at":"2018-06-01T05:01:59.000000Z","display_name":"dansup"},"meta":{"timestamp":"2026-06-09T11:39:28.304Z","request_id":"1a25e8e9-5dfc-4066-a314-f6291639ea99"},"status":"ok","message":"Account retrieved successfully","success":true}}}},"401":{"description":"Missing or invalid x-oanor-key header"},"402":{"description":"Active subscription required"},"429":{"description":"Rate-limit or monthly quota reached"},"502":{"description":"Upstream did not respond"}}}},"/v1/hashtags":{"get":{"operationId":"get_v1_hashtags","tags":["Pixelfed"],"summary":"A creator's most-used hashtags","description":"","parameters":[{"name":"user","in":"query","required":true,"description":"Username or user@instance","schema":{"type":"string"},"example":"dansup"}],"security":[{"oanorKey":[]}],"responses":{"200":{"description":"OK","content":{"application/json":{"example":{"data":{"user":"dansup","latest_post":"2026-06-05T16:30:12.000Z","top_hashtags":[{"tag":"astrophotography","count":5},{"tag":"dogsofpixelfed","count":3},{"tag":"space","count":2},{"tag":"startrails","count":1},{"tag":"seestars30pro","count":1},{"tag":"jake","count":1},{"tag":"labsofpixelfed","count":1},{"tag":"dogs","count":1},{"tag":"boopthebloom","count":1},{"tag":"fedicon","count":1},{"tag":"zetadraconis","count":1},{"tag":"moon","count":1},{"tag":"lunar","count":1},{"tag":"yellowlab","count":1}],"posts_analysed":10,"distinct_hashtags":14},"meta":{"timestamp":"2026-06-09T11:39:28.575Z","request_id":"67ab14d2-3131-410e-a0b1-0f6b567d755f"},"status":"ok","message":"Hashtags retrieved successfully","success":true}}}},"401":{"description":"Missing or invalid x-oanor-key header"},"402":{"description":"Active subscription required"},"429":{"description":"Rate-limit or monthly quota reached"},"502":{"description":"Upstream did not respond"}}}},"/v1/posts":{"get":{"operationId":"get_v1_posts","tags":["Pixelfed"],"summary":"A creator's recent photos","description":"","parameters":[{"name":"user","in":"query","required":true,"description":"Username or user@instance","schema":{"type":"string"},"example":"dansup"},{"name":"limit","in":"query","required":false,"description":"How many (default 20, max 40)","schema":{"type":"string"},"example":"20"}],"security":[{"oanorKey":[]}],"responses":{"200":{"description":"OK","content":{"application/json":{"example":{"data":{"user":"dansup","count":10,"posts":[{"url":"https://pixelfed.social/p/dansup/968549570111641933","caption":"Star trails over the trees last night #astrophotography #StarTrails #SeeStarS30Pro","hashtags":["astrophotography","StarTrails","SeeStarS30Pro"],"image_url":"https://pxscdn.com/public/m/_v2/2/b5862bd14-4506fa/aLMuHeX6b1MW/SySEub9rtS0kmm8PVjM06tTZy09KnXOU5ykbTLAT.jpg","published":"2026-06-05T16:30:12.000Z"},{"url":"https://pixelfed.social/p/dansup/965272699071587926","caption":"Howdy partner 🤠 #dogsOfPixelfed","hashtags":["dogsOfPixelfed"],"image_url":"https://pxscdn.com/public/m/_v2/2/0d402c64b-2701fc/6Lysmem0eKcc/wMcgO34l96uFriAgyWMHD5cjaWYtczWrhListapj.jpg","published":"2026-05-27T15:29:05.000Z"},{"url":"https://pixelfed.social/p/dansup/965257116732349206","caption":"One year old and already a flower connoisseur 🌼 #Jake #LabsOfPixelfed #Dogs #DogsOfPixelfed #BoopTheBloom","hashtags":["Jake","LabsOfPixelfed","Dogs","DogsOfPixelfed","BoopTheBloom"],"image_url":"https://pxscdn.com/public/m/_v2/2/0d402c64b-2701fc/VxFJORg41OVz/dUXg16Id8hvr595dD22RD4oGVBbm4Wmc6A3NOdBr.jpg","published":"2026-05-27T14:27:10.000Z"},{"url":"https://pixelfed.social/p/dansup/964520737452049780","caption":"Stanley Theatre.
