How this service works
Pay-per-call data tools for developers and AI agents: company registers, documents, tenders, rates and on-chain facts as MCP tools, x402 endpoints and Apify Actors.
Output
Returns a JSON object containing the article title, a plain-text extract (intro paragraph), a short description, the Wikipedia URL, the language code, the last-edited timestamp, a fetch timestamp, CC BY-SA 4.0 attribution text, a flag indicating whether the article is a disambiguation page, and a 'found' boolean indicating whether the article exists.
Example use cases
Quick fact-check on a topic
“What does Wikipedia say about the Large Hadron Collider? Just give me the opening summary and the link to the article.”
Multilingual research assistant
“Fetch the Wikipedia summary for 'Albert Einstein' in German and tell me when the article was last edited.”
Entity enrichment for a dataset
“I have a list of company names — can you pull the Wikipedia description and URL for 'Volkswagen' to enrich my records?”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://api.ambolt.dev/v1/wikipedia-summary?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need a fast, attributed, structured Wikipedia summary for a known entity or topic title — especially when you require CC BY-SA attribution metadata, the last-edited timestamp, or multilingual support. It is preferable to scraping Wikipedia directly (no HTML parsing needed) and over general web search when the user specifically wants encyclopedic, crowd-sourced factual content rather than current news or opinionated sources.
Side effects
- Article not found: 'found' returns false if the title does not match any Wikipedia article
- Disambiguation page: 'disambiguation' flag is true when the title maps to a disambiguation page rather than a specific article, requiring a more specific title
- Invalid language code: request fails or falls back to English if the lang parameter does not match a valid Wikipedia language code
- Title too long: rejected if title exceeds 200 characters
- Network or upstream timeout: Wikipedia API unavailable
