Hi everyone,
New documentation website for the Wikimedia Analytics API (AQS) is now available at [0].
Wikimedia Analytics API (or AQS - Analytics Query Service) provides analytics data, such as page views, unique devices, and editor counts; for Wikipedia and other Wikimedia free-knowledge projects. For example, you can use the API to: - Get the number of devices that visited Wikipedia in a given month - List the most-viewed or most-edited pages on Wikipedia - Compare the number of editors that edited Wikipedia by country
The new website [0] replaces documentation previously available on Wikitech (example: [1]) and in the REST API reference [2]. It includes: - explanations of core concepts used in Wikimedia analytics - extensive examples - tutorials with code written in Python - a full API reference with sandboxes, allowing you to test API requests directly in your browser - links to other resources
To share feedback or report an issue with the new site, create a task in Phabricator [3].
To request changes directly in the code repository [4], create a merge request in GitLab.
On behalf of the Technical Documentation team and the Data Products team, Kamil Bach
