US Beaches Data API FAQs

The US Beaches Data API provides data on the total number of beaches in each U.S. state, the best-rated beach in a specified state, and the exact location of these beaches.

The data from the US Beaches Data API is structured and filtered, allowing for efficient retrieval. The output is typically in JSON format, which is easy to integrate into applications.

The US Beaches Data API can be used for travel planning applications, tourism analytics, and interactive maps that help users discover and explore beaches across the United States.

Developers can query the API to retrieve all available states, the total number of beaches in a state, and details about the best-rated beach in that state, using structured endpoints and parameters.

The core value proposition of the US Beaches Data API is to provide reliable and organized beach-related data, enabling developers to create engaging and informative applications that enhance user experiences related to beach tourism.

Each endpoint returns specific beach-related data: the "fetch all available states" endpoint provides a list of U.S. states, the "get total number of beaches by state" endpoint returns the total beach count for a specified state, and the "get best rated beach by state" endpoint delivers details about the highest-rated beach, including its name and location.

The key fields in the response data include "states" for the list of states, "state" for the queried state name, "total_beaches" for the count of beaches, "best_beach_name" for the name of the top-rated beach, and "location" for its geographical location.

The response data is organized in JSON format, with each endpoint returning an array of objects. Each object contains relevant fields, such as state names, beach counts, or details about the best-rated beach, making it easy to parse and utilize in applications.

The endpoints accept parameters such as the state name for the "get total number of beaches by state" and "get best rated beach by state" endpoints. Users must provide a valid state name to receive accurate data in response.

Users can customize their data requests by specifying the state name in the relevant endpoints. For example, to get the total number of beaches or the best-rated beach, users simply include the desired state name as a parameter in their API call.

Typical use cases for this data include travel planning applications that help users find beaches, tourism analytics for understanding beach popularity, and interactive maps that allow users to explore beach locations and ratings across the U.S.

Data accuracy is maintained by sourcing information from reliable state-level databases and regularly updating the dataset to reflect current beach counts and ratings, ensuring users receive trustworthy information.

Users can expect standard data patterns such as consistent naming conventions for states, numerical values for beach counts, and structured responses that include specific fields for easy integration into applications.

General FAQs

Zyla API Hub is like a big store for APIs, where you can find thousands of them all in one place. We also offer dedicated support and real-time monitoring of all APIs. Once you sign up, you can pick and choose which APIs you want to use. Just remember, each API needs its own subscription. But if you subscribe to multiple ones, you'll use the same key for all of them, making things easier for you.

Prices are listed in USD (United States Dollar), EUR (Euro), CAD (Canadian Dollar), AUD (Australian Dollar), and GBP (British Pound). We accept all major debit and credit cards. Our payment system uses the latest security technology and is powered by Stripe, one of the world's most reliable payment companies. If you have any trouble paying by card, just contact us at [email protected]

Additionally, if you already have an active subscription in any of these currencies (USD, EUR, CAD, AUD, GBP), that currency will remain for subsequent subscriptions. You can change the currency at any time as long as you don't have any active subscriptions.

The local currency shown on the pricing page is based on the country of your IP address and is provided for reference only. The actual prices are in USD (United States Dollar). When you make a payment, the charge will appear on your card statement in USD, even if you see the equivalent amount in your local currency on our website. This means you cannot pay directly with your local currency.

Occasionally, a bank may decline the charge due to its fraud protection settings. We suggest reaching out to your bank initially to check if they are blocking our charges. Also, you can access the Billing Portal and change the card associated to make the payment. If these does not work and you need further assistance, please contact our team at [email protected]

Prices are determined by a recurring monthly or yearly subscription, depending on the chosen plan.

API calls are deducted from your plan based on successful requests. Each plan comes with a specific number of calls that you can make per month. Only successful calls, indicated by a Status 200 response, will be counted against your total. This ensures that failed or incomplete requests do not impact your monthly quota.

Zyla API Hub works on a recurring monthly subscription system. Your billing cycle will start the day you purchase one of the paid plans, and it will renew the same day of the next month. So be aware to cancel your subscription beforehand if you want to avoid future charges.

To upgrade your current subscription plan, simply go to the pricing page of the API and select the plan you want to upgrade to. The upgrade will be instant, allowing you to immediately enjoy the features of the new plan. Please note that any remaining calls from your previous plan will not be carried over to the new plan, so be aware of this when upgrading. You will be charged the full amount of the new plan.

To check how many API calls you have left for the current month, refer to the 'X-Zyla-API-Calls-Monthly-Remaining' field in the response header. For example, if your plan allows 1,000 requests per month and you've used 100, this field in the response header will indicate 900 remaining calls.

To see the maximum number of API requests your plan allows, check the 'X-Zyla-RateLimit-Limit' response header. For instance, if your plan includes 1,000 requests per month, this header will display 1,000.

The 'X-Zyla-RateLimit-Reset' header shows the number of seconds until your rate limit resets. This tells you when your request count will start fresh. For example, if it displays 3,600, it means 3,600 seconds are left until the limit resets.

Yes, you can cancel your plan anytime by going to your account and selecting the cancellation option on the Billing page. Please note that upgrades, downgrades, and cancellations take effect immediately. Additionally, upon cancellation, you will no longer have access to the service, even if you have remaining calls left in your quota.

You can contact us through our chat channel to receive immediate assistance. We are always online from 8 am to 5 pm (EST). If you reach us after that time, we will get back to you as soon as possible. Additionally, you can contact us via email at [email protected]

To give you the opportunity to experience our APIs without any commitment, we offer a 7-day free trial that allows you to make up to 50 API calls at no cost. This trial can be used only once, so we recommend applying it to the API that interests you the most. While most of our APIs offer a free trial, some may not. The trial concludes after 7 days or once you've made 50 requests, whichever occurs first. If you reach the 50 request limit during the trial, you will need to "Start Your Paid Plan" to continue making requests. You can find the "Start Your Paid Plan" button in your profile under Subscription -> Choose the API you are subscribed to -> Pricing tab. Alternatively, if you don't cancel your subscription before the 7th day, your free trial will end, and your plan will automatically be billed, granting you access to all the API calls specified in your plan. Please keep this in mind to avoid unwanted charges.

After 7 days, you will be charged the full amount for the plan you were subscribed to during the trial. Therefore, it's important to cancel before the trial period ends. Refund requests for forgetting to cancel on time are not accepted.

When you subscribe to an API free trial, you can make up to 50 API calls. If you wish to make additional API calls beyond this limit, the API will prompt you to perform an "Start Your Paid Plan." You can find the "Start Your Paid Plan" button in your profile under Subscription -> Choose the API you are subscribed to -> Pricing tab.

Payout Orders are processed between the 20th and the 30th of each month. If you submit your request before the 20th, your payment will be processed within this timeframe.
