Example use cases
Example prompt
“Can you pull the Wikipedia summary for 'Marie Curie' — I need the plain-text extract, thumbnail, and Wikidata ID in one shot.”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://wiki.use.x402atlas.com/summaryWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need a fast, structured, attribution-ready Wikipedia summary for a known topic title, especially when you also need the Wikidata ID or thumbnail alongside the text extract. Prefer it over raw Wikipedia API calls when you want a clean normalized envelope with consistent field names and built-in CC-BY-SA attribution handling.
Side effects
- Article title not found — returns 404 or empty result
- Ambiguous title requiring redirect — resolved automatically unless redirect=false
- Rate limit or payment failure — 402 response if USDC payment is not attached
- Malformed title input — may cause unexpected redirect or no match
- Wikipedia API downtime — upstream service unavailable error
