Endpoint Playground

Try the Get a Kickstarter campaign's detail API

Returns one Kickstarter campaign's detail: funding snapshot (goal, pledged, percent funded, backers, state, dates), category, creator, cover photo, story text, risks & challenges, update/comment/FAQ counts, and reward/pledge tiers. creator and slug are the two path segments of the project URL, e.g. lookingglass and musubi for kickstarter.com/projects/lookingglass/musubi. Reward tiers are best-effort -- see the endpoint's documentation for when they may be omitted.

Response behavior

Notable response behavior: - `story` and `risks_and_challenges` are the campaign's own text, available on both live and completed campaigns. - `updates_count`, `comments_count`, and `faq_count` come from the project page's own navigation tab labels, with `comments_count`/`backers_count`/`pledged`/`state` then refined by the campaign's own exact-match live-stats source when available. - `goal`, `percent_funded`, `staff_pick`, `spotlight`, `created_at`, `launched_at`, `deadline`, `usd_pledged`, and `converted_pledged_amount` are sourced from a `discover/advanced` search matched by an EXACT slug — a fuzzy lookup that can occasionally miss an older or lightly-indexed campaign, in which case those specific fields are left at their zero value rather than failing the whole request. - `reward_tiers` lists the campaign's reward tiers (each tier's `id`, `name`, `description`, `amount`, `currency`, `backers_count`, `estimated_delivery_on`, `image`, shipping fields, `remaining_quantity`, `limit`, `available`, `featured`, `items` (the reward's own contents), and `add_ons`). Best-effort: omitted from the response (not an error) when the capture misses or the campaign genuinely has no reward tiers (e.g. a completed or donation-only project) — the two are indistinguishable from this endpoint's point of view. - A nonexistent `creator`/`slug` pair returns `404`. A page Kickstarter blocks/challenges, or an unparseable response, returns a `503` upstream error.
