Headstream

API

Updated 2026-11-02

Basics

Base URL: https://headstream.app/api/v1

Create a key under Organization, in the API and MCP card. It's shown once. Keys start with hsk_ and reach every project in the organization.

curl "https://headstream.app/api/v1/sites" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer hsk_YOUR_KEY"

Each key allows 120 requests per minute. Past that, you get 429 with the code rate_limited.

Errors look like this:

{ "error": { "code": "invalid_query", "message": "siteId is required.", "nextAction": "Pass siteId as a UUID." } }

nextAction is present on some errors. Common codes are unauthorized, not_found, invalid_query, invalid_body, conflict and rate_limited.

Common parameters

  • siteId: the project's UUID, from GET /sites.
  • from, to: dates. The default is the 30 days ending now.
  • model: first_touch, last_touch, linear or u_shaped. The default is linear.
  • f_<dimension>: filters on /summary, /traffic and /explain, such as f_country=US.

Money is in minor currency units.
