Hi Team,

Thanks a lot for your support and quick responses.
As per all the suggestions you gave for my query, I found below two apis which solves my purpose,
But I see both queries ask for todays most viewed pages on wikipedia but they are returning different results.
Request you to please help me on this.

1) 
https://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&format=json&prop=extracts%7Cinfo%7Cpageimages%7Cpageviews%7Cpageterms%7Cpageprops%7Crevisions&generator=mostviewed&exchars=512&exlimit=max&exintro=1&explaintext=1&exsectionformat=plain&inprop=url&pithumbsize=640&pilimit=max&wbptterms=description%7Calias%7Clabel&gpvimlimit=50&pvipdays=1

2) https://en.wikipedia.org/api/rest_v1/feed/featured/2017/04/07

For the action API I think you're looking for an extra property, pageviews. Maybe something like this:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:ApiSandbox#action=query&format=json&prop=extracts%7Cinfo%7Cpageimages%7Cpageviews%7Cpageterms%7Cpageprops%7Crevisions&generator=mostviewed&exchars=512&exlimit=max&exintro=1&explaintext=1&exsectionformat=plain&inprop=url&pithumbsize=640&pilimit=max&pvipdays=8&wbptterms=description%7Calias%7Clabel&gpvimlimit=20

Hi Anand,

It sounds like the REST API's featured feed endpoint provides what you're looking for.  

For example: https://en.wikipedia.org/api/rest_v1/feed/featured/2017/04/06 (see the content under the "mostread" key).

Under the hood, titles are obtained from the Pageview API and then supplementary information for our desired titles is obtained from the REST API's page summary endpoint.  That would be the easiest way to go if you'd like to go in a slightly different direction from what's provided in our featured feed endpoint.

If you'd like, you can view the implementation for the "mostread" section of our aggregated feed endpoint here:


Please note that as of now the REST API endpoints are officially designated as unstable.

Best,
Michael

Hi Team,

Thanks for the great api provided for all the wiki info.
I am looking for a combination of right parameters which will return me most viewed pages with the page url, article snippet, thumbnail image url.
Hope you can help with this.

Thanks,
Anand
