<rpc-name> is kebab-case (e.g. list-acled-events, get-resilience-ranking). Auth is the same on every service — pass a user API key such as X-WorldMonitor-Key: wm_0123456789abcdef0123456789abcdef01234567, an operator-issued enterprise key, or use the dashboard’s browser session where supported. See Authentication for details.
The grouped pages in the left sidebar render OpenAPI specs — request parameters, response schemas, and try-it-out — for the documented service groups. The bundled spec remains the complete machine-readable source.
Prefer the terminal? The official worldmonitor CLI hits any of these paths (worldmonitor get /api/<service>/v1/<rpc-name>) and lists the live catalog with worldmonitor list.
Machine-readable discovery
Building an agent or codegen pipeline? Point athttps://worldmonitor.app/ and follow the Link: header — every OpenAPI spec, MCP server card, OAuth endpoint, and agent-skill bundle is discoverable from one root URL via standard .well-known paths. See Agent Discovery for the full walkthrough.
The single bundled spec is at /openapi.yaml — feed it to any OpenAPI generator to produce typed clients for all 35 generated services in one pass, including platform services that do not have dedicated sidebar pages.

Acting on many items?POST /api/batch/v1/execute accepts an array of operations and runs up to 20 documented GET endpoints concurrently in a single request, returning per-operation statuses and bodies:
jmespath projections keep the combined response small. Responses over 1 MB per operation are rejected with response_too_large; nested batches are refused.
MCP equivalents
If you’re moving between REST and the MCP server, treat them as related but distinct catalogs. REST coverage is defined by OpenAPI. MCP coverage is narrower: an endpoint is MCP-exposed only when the exactMETHOD /api/... path is declared in a tool’s registry _apiPaths entry.
Use the MCP API coverage table as the human-facing reverse lookup. It maps each MCP tool to the REST endpoints it explicitly serves. If a REST route is not in that table, it is REST-only as an API equivalence, even if a cache-backed MCP tool returns similar domain data.
Common shapes:
- Declared REST-backed tools — the tool’s registry names one or more exact REST paths, such as
get_market_datacovering market quote and sector endpoints. - Bundled cache reads — the tool reads one or more pre-seeded Redis keys and may not have a single REST equivalent, such as
get_country_macro, the EU macro tools,get_aviation_status, andget_cyber_threats. - Live/composite tools — the tool fans out, filters geographically, or invokes LLM analysis; use the coverage table for the exact REST paths it claims.
Always cross-check against the bundled OpenAPI spec for REST path names, parameters, and response shapes, and against MCP API coverage for MCP exposure.
