FAQ

Is there a UFC API?

Yes. Cito API provides UFC endpoints for fighters, rankings, events, bouts, fight results, fighter stats, and round-by-round fight data.

Can I test the UFC API for free?

Yes. Create a free Cito API key and test UFC endpoints with 500 requests/month before upgrading.

What is the best first endpoint to test?

Most developers start with /api/v1/ufc/events?hasStats=true, then fetch /api/v1/ufc/events/{eventIdOrSlug}/stats for fight-level data.
