Request History API
Recent API requests for your key — requestId, status, credits, cacheHit (0 credits).
GET request to /v1/account/request-history that responds with clean JSON and costs 0 credits. Account endpoints are always live (never cached). Start with 100 free credits — no credit card.What is the Request History API?
Live (never cached) request log for your Captapi key — free. Each row includes requestId (same UUID as the response envelope / x-captapi-request-id for support matching), endpoint, platform, resource (public URL or internal cache key such as instagram_user:handle — resourceUrl is a deprecated alias), creditsUsed, cacheHit, statusCode, responseTimeMs, errorMessage, createdAt. Filter with endpoint, statusCode, since, and until. limit only caps rows returned — it does not bill.
What you get
- requestId per row for support / envelope matching
- creditsUsed + cacheHit + responseTimeMs (see cache savings in one sample)
- Filters: endpoint, statusCode, since, until
- Free — never cached, never billed

Response structure
A successful call returns success, cached, creditsUsed, and a data object with the following fields:
Top-level fields
totalReturnedNumber of items returned in this response.
Requests
Each item in requests contains:
requestIdUUID of the logged call — same value as the response envelope requestId / x-captapi-request-id header. Use when contacting support.endpointEndpoint. Example: "/v1/instagram/basic-profile".platformPlatform identifier for this response (matches the endpoint's platform).resourceLogged resource identifier: a public URL when the call had one, otherwise an internal cache key (e.g. instagram_user:handle).resourceUrlDeprecated alias of resource (not always a URL). Prefer resource.creditsUsedCredits charged for that call (0 on cache hits).cacheHittrue when the call was served from the 24h shared cache (0 credits).statusCodeStatus code. Example: 200.responseTimeMsResponse time ms. Example: 154.errorMessageError message.createdAtCreation date (ISO 8601).
Filters
The filters object contains:
endpointEndpoint.statusCodeStatus code.sinceSince.untilUntil.limitRequested max items for this call.
Parameters
| Name | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| limit | integer | No | Max rows to return (default 50, max 500). Free — does not consume credits. |
| endpoint | string | No | Exact Captapi path filter, e.g. /v1/instagram/basic-profile. |
| statusCode | integer | No | Filter by HTTP status code (e.g. 500). |
| since | string | No | Inclusive lower bound on createdAt (ISO date or datetime). |
| until | string | No | Exclusive upper bound on createdAt (ISO date or datetime). |
Authentication: send your key as Authorization: Bearer capt_live_.... A typical call costs 0 credits. Always live — account endpoints are never cached.
account_request_history via @captapi/mcp. Set it up →How it works
- 1. Sign up — get 100 free credits, no card required.
- 2. Create a key from your dashboard.
- 3. Send one request to
/v1/account/request-historyand parse the JSON response.
Use cases
Support matching
Copy requestId from a failed call and match it to the envelope / x-captapi-request-id header.
Incident filters
Query last week's 5xx with statusCode + since/until, or a single endpoint path.
Cache savings
Compare cacheHit true (0 credits, ~150ms) vs false (billed, multi-second) on the same resource.
