We have decided to officially retire the rest.wikimedia.org domain in favor of /api/rest_v1/ at each individual project domain. For example,
https://rest.wikimedia.org/en.wikipedia.org/v1/?doc
becomes
https://en.wikipedia.org/api/rest_v1/?doc
Most clients already use the new path, and benefit from better performance from geo-distributed caching, no additional DNS lookups, and sharing of TLS / HTTP2 connections.
We intend to shut down the rest.wikimedia.org entry point around March, so please adjust your clients to use /api/rest_v1/ soon.
Thank you for your cooperation,
Gabriel
Hi,
Does this apply to the Graph extension as well?
Thanks, Strainu

the graph extension has been using /api/rest_v1/ right from the start, so it's likely that no changes are needed for graphs.
Gabriel
Will it apply to the pageviews API as well?

It will, but the canonical URL for this has always been https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/?doc, which will continue to work. Are you aware of any pageview users hitting rest.wikimedia.org?
In any case, we'll check the logs for remaining rest.wikimedia.org accesses & make an effort to remind remaining users before decommissioning it.

Ohh gotcha. Okay, that works; we should be good.

Final reminder on this: We are planning to finally sunset rest.wikimedia.org in the week starting April 25th, 1 1/2 weeks from now. Please move your REST API clients to /api/rest_v1/ at the regular project domains instead!
Thanks,
Gabriel

This will happen in a week's time. We are, however, still observing quite a volume of requests for mobile sections endpoints using the rest.wikimedia.org domain. Specifically, almost all of the requests are asking for resources pertaining to the de.wikipedia.org domain. Unfortunately no user-agent header is provided so we are not able to pin-point the client. Please ensure your clients point to https://%7Bdomain%7D/api/rest_v1/ instead of https://rest.wikimedia.org/%7Bdomain%7D/v1/.
Cheers, Marko
Thanks,
Gabriel
