Day in History API update: New Paginated Endpoints

Dec 07, 2025

We've improved the Day in History API with new paginated endpoints for better performance and easier data consumption.

πŸ’‘What's Changed

New Endpoint Structure:

β€” /v1/today/events/ - Get today's historical events

β€” /v1/today/births/ - Get today's births

β€” /v1/today/deaths/ - Get today's deaths

β€” /v1/events/{month}/{day}/ - Get events for any date (e.g., /v1/events/january/8/)

β€” /v1/births/{month}/{day}/ - Get births for any date

β€” /v1/deaths/{month}/{day}/ - Get deaths for any date

Pagination Support:

All endpoints now support pagination with ?page= parameter. Default page size is 20 items.

Example: /v1/births/january/8/?page=2

βœ… Migration Guide

If you're using the old /v1/today/ endpoint, please update to:

β€” Use /v1/today/events/ for events only

β€” Use /v1/today/births/ for births only

β€” Use /v1/today/deaths/ for deaths only
