KF - API

The Kingfisher API allows access to all of the Kingfisher's Liq Maps and GEX+

Apply for API access

To access the Kingfisher's API, you need to fill an application form. Upon reception, we'll get in touch with you.

On http://alpha.thekingfisher.io, click "Subscription" --> API Access --> Apply for API Access

Upon reception of the form, the Kingfisher team will get in touch with you.

Once your access becomes active, refer to the following section to effectively make use of the KF API.
