Discontinued
This API no longer responds. Our last check on 2026-04-05 found no working endpoint — the service appears to have shut down or moved. The documentation, code samples and score below are kept for reference only; do not build against this API. See working Art & Design APIs →
Overview
Rijksmuseum provides programmatic access to rijksmuseum data via REST API.
Available Data
The kind of data this API exposes, based on its documentation. We could not call the endpoint to confirm the exact field names.
Example Response
Illustrative shape only — we were not able to call this endpoint (it requires credentials or exposes no public sample URL), so the fields below show the kind of data this API returns rather than a recorded response.
{
"status": "success",
"data": {
"result": "Data from Rijksmuseum",
"description": "RijksMuseum Data",
"timestamp": "2025-01-15T10:00:00Z"
}
} Implementation Example
Request skeleton. The URL below is this API's documentation page, not a live endpoint — swap in the path you need from the provider's docs before running it.
const url = "https://data.rijksmuseum.nl/object-metadata/api/";
// Replace headers or query params with the values required by this API.
const response = await fetch(url, {
headers: {
"X-API-Key": "YOUR_API_KEY"
}
});
if (!response.ok) throw new Error(`Request failed: ${response.status}`);
const data = await response.json();
console.log(data); What Can You Build?
