About Wordle Hints Today Api

The API provides JSON access to a historical dataset of NYT Wordle answers, along with generated hints and difficulty ratings. It exposes REST endpoints over HTTPS with no API key or registration required: a "latest" endpoint returning the most recent answer, a paginated "answers" endpoint supporting filtering by game number, exact date, date range, or answer word with sorting options, and a "today" endpoint that returns the current day's solution alongside five progressive hint levels (category, letter count, first letter, definition, answer). Each answer record includes the game number, date, day name, and a 1-decimal difficulty rating.

The data updates daily at midnight US Eastern time to match the official NYT release schedule, and requests for future dates return a 403 to avoid spoilers. It is intended for developers, researchers, bot creators, and analytics tools building daily widgets, status bots, or historical analysis of Wordle answers. Usage is free for non-abusive use, including commercial projects, with response caching requested and a backlink credit appreciated but not required.
