Changelog

2026/11/14

Docs revision: the API docs are regrouped by function into “Getting Started”, “Auth & Usage”, “Earthquakes”, “Real-time Streams”, “Map Tiles”, “Weather”, “Disaster Info (DPIP)”, and “Other”.
Added Quick start.
Added Data license & attribution: every API’s data must credit the source, and is split into “commercial use allowed” and “non-commercial only”. Usage rules now follow these two classes, and no longer limit use to personal use.
Added Architecture and geo-redundancy.
Added Servers and Base URL, replacing the old “Architecture” and “Handle the Base URL manually” pages.
Auth is now an API Token: create it on the dashboard. It does not expire, and it stays valid until you revoke it. This replaces the auth method in the old docs.
Permissions are named by data type (for example eq.report and trem.rts). HTTP and streams share the same permission. Names that start with http. are no longer accepted.
Usage and quota are now a daily count per resource. The count resets at 00:00 Taipei time. The limit depends on the plan. Monthly counts, monthly traffic, and requests-per-second limits in the old docs no longer apply.
Added a Real-time streams (SSE) section. It replaces the old real-time data docs.
Added OAuth2, the public info API, and error codes.
