​
1. Get an API key

PRO subscribers get an API key from worldmonitor.app/pro. Keys look like wm_live_... and are at least 16 characters.
Browser origins on worldmonitor.app / localhost are trusted without a key. You only need a key for server-to-server use or from untrusted origins.

​
2. Call an endpoint

​
curl

curl -s 'https://api.worldmonitor.app/api/conflict/v1/list-conflict-events?limit=5' \
  -H 'X-WorldMonitor-Key: wm_live_...'

​
JavaScript (Node or browser)

const res = await fetch(
  'https://api.worldmonitor.app/api/market/v1/get-quotes?symbols=AAPL,TSLA',
  { headers: { 'X-WorldMonitor-Key': process.env.WM_KEY } }
);
const data = await res.json();
console.log(data);

​
Python

import os, httpx

r = httpx.get(
    "https://api.worldmonitor.app/api/economic/v1/get-fred-series",
    params={"series_id": "FEDFUNDS"},
    headers={"X-WorldMonitor-Key": os.environ["WM_KEY"]},
)
r.raise_for_status()
print(r.json())

​
3. Hydrate everything at once

For dashboards, use /api/bootstrap to pull all seeded caches in one request: 
curl -s 'https://api.worldmonitor.app/api/bootstrap' \
  -H 'X-WorldMonitor-Key: wm_live_...'
See Platform endpoints for the response shape.

​
4. Plug into an MCP client

Point any MCP-compatible client at the server URL — the client handles OAuth automatically: 
https://api.worldmonitor.app/api/mcp
See MCP for client-specific setup.
