`get_api`

Pack: apis-guru · Connect: https://pipeworx.io/mcp (see Connect below for a single-pack URL)

No MCP client? Call it directly: GET https://gateway.pipeworx.io/v1/tools/get_api for the schema, then POST the same URL with its arguments for the data.

Get the full directory entry for one API by its exact APIs.guru name/key (e.g. “stripe.com” or “googleapis.com:calendar”). Returns every version of that API with its info (title, description, provider, categories), last-updated date, docs link, and OpenAPI/Swagger spec URLs (swaggerUrl JSON + swaggerYamlUrl YAML), plus which version is preferred. Use this once you know the exact name (from search_apis) to fetch the spec URLs for an API.

Parameters

Name	Type	Required	Description
`name`	string	yes	Exact APIs.guru directory key, e.g. “stripe.com” or “googleapis.com:calendar”.
