BMI Analysis API

The BMI Analysis API is a user-friendly and effective tool for computing an individual’s Body Mass Index (BMI) using their height and weight.

About the API:  

Designed to enhance health and fitness applications, the BMI Analysis API provides a simple and efficient method for calculating essential health parameters. This API is a crucial tool for developers and health professionals, as it streamlines the process of determining Body Mass Index (BMI) from height and weight.

The primary function of the BMI Analysis API is to calculate an individual's BMI, a widely recognized measure for assessing whether a person is within a healthy weight range for their height. Users provide height and weight data in metric units (kilograms and meters) through API requests. The API then processes this data, providing the BMI value and classifying it into weight ranges such as underweight, normal, overweight or obese.

Designed for easy integration, the API can be effortlessly incorporated into web or mobile applications, fitness trackers and electronic health record systems. Its simplicity ensures that developers can seamlessly integrate it into their platforms.

Accuracy and reliability are at the core of the BMI Analysis API. It uses the standard BMI formula: BMI = weight (kg) / (height (m) * height (m)). This ensures accurate calculations and consistent results.

Hosted on a scalable and robust infrastructure, the API efficiently handles a large volume of requests with minimal downtime and high availability. This makes it an ideal solution for high-traffic healthcare platforms and applications that require reliable service.

Full documentation is provided to guide users through the implementation and use of the API. In addition, technical support is available to assist developers with integration challenges and queries, ensuring a smooth configuration process.

In summary, the BMI Analysis API is a versatile and essential tool for integrating accurate BMI calculations into applications. Its accuracy, reliability and ease of use make it a valuable asset for promoting health awareness and supporting informed decision making about weight and overall wellness.

Zyla provides a wide range of integration methods for almost all programming languages. You can use these codes to integrate with your project as you need.

To use this API the user must indicate a height and weight.

The BMI Analysis API is a powerful and easy-to-use tool designed to calculate the Body Mass Index (BMI) of an individual based on their height and weight.

The API returns an individual’s BMI value and categorizes their weight into ranges such as underweight, normal, overweight, or obese.

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, look at the ‘X-Zyla-API-Calls-Monthly-Remaining’ header. For example, if your plan allows 1000 requests per month and you've used 100, this header will show 900.

To see the maximum number of API requests your plan allows, check the ‘X-Zyla-RateLimit-Limit’ header. For instance, if your plan includes 1000 requests per month, this header will display 1000.

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 3600, it means 3600 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]
