The Forge API
Build tools for the Single Player Tarkov community on top of the same data that powers Forge. Every endpoint is publicly accessible and requires no authentication or API key.

What you can build
Mod managers & browsers
List, search, and filter the full catalogue by category, SPT version, or Fika support, with pagination built in.
Update checkers
Compare a user's installed mods against the latest published versions and tell them exactly what is out of date.
Dependency resolvers
Resolve a mod or addon's full dependency tree before install so nothing is left missing.
Compatibility tooling
Filter mods by an SPT SemVer constraint or Fika compatibility to surface only what works with a given build.
Bots & dashboards
Pull download counts, featured flags, and categories into Discord bots, stat sites, or community dashboards.
Whatever you dream up
The data is open. If you build something neat with it, come share it with us on Discord.

A note on stability
The API is versioned and currently sits at v0. It is
in active development, so fields and behaviour may change as it matures. Pin to the
versioned base path, and watch our Discord for announcements before you ship anything
you intend to support long term.
