Dipity API

Featured Developer Project

The Evolution of Digg

Our thanks to Eric D. for a great mashup showing the top diggs since the site launched in 2004. You can see the script here.

The Dipity API enables developers to interact with the Dipity service programmatically. The REST-based API returns data in a form that can be easily integrated into another application or web site. You can develop Dipity applications for a mobile phone, build a Dipity widget for your blog, or create mashups with other web applications.

Getting Started

1. Get an Application Key

   To make calls to the Dipity API, you need to get an application key. This enables Dipity to authenticate the application without embedding any user credentials in a request.

2. Read the Online Documentation

   Dipity provides full documentation for each REST call.

3. Download an SDK

   You can download the PHP SDK. If an SDK exists for your project's programming language, you may be able to get something working in less time. Dipity will promote SDKs written for additional languages.

Support

If you have questions or suggestions, you can chat with Dipity employees and other developers in the Dipity API developer forum.
