About Black History Facts

The Black History API provides programmatic access to facts about Black history through a REST interface at rest.blackhistoryapi.io/v2. The API supports creating new facts, searching facts, retrieving a random fact, searching metadata by type, and a health check endpoint.

Access requires an API key obtained by signing up through the provider's website. The API is documented via a Swagger/OpenAPI 2.0 specification and supports both HTTP and HTTPS schemes.

The service is built and maintained by ParteeLabs and is intended for developers who want to integrate Black history facts into applications.
