How to call it

A starting template for Open Collective. Replace ENDPOINT with the path from the official documentation, which we link above rather than guess at.

# No authentication required.
curl -s "https://docs.opencollective.com/ENDPOINT" \
  -H "Accept: application/json"

This API does not send CORS headers, so a browser will block a direct call from your front end. Call it from your server, or put a small proxy in front of it.

Open Collective — common questions

Answered from what our own scheduled checks found, not from the provider's marketing.

Is Open Collective free to use?

Open Collective is listed in our free catalogue and required no credential when we called it. It needs no authentication at all, so you can send a request without signing up. Free tiers can still carry rate limits or non-commercial terms, so check the provider's own terms before shipping.

Does Open Collective need an API key?

No. We called Open Collective on 2026-09-18 with no key, no token and no Authorization header, and it responded. That is what puts it in our no-key collection.

Can I call Open Collective from browser JavaScript?

Not directly. Open Collective did not return CORS headers when we checked, so the browser will block your page from reading the response even though the request itself succeeds. Call it from a server, or put a small proxy in front of it.

Is Open Collective still working?

Yes, as of 2026-09-18. Our automated check reached Open Collective and recorded a 100% reliability score with a median response time of 679 ms. We re-check on a schedule, and this page updates with the result.

Is Open Collective available over HTTPS?

Yes. Open Collective serves over HTTPS, so you can call it from a secure page without triggering a mixed-content block.
