The Guardian — common questions

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

Is The Guardian free to use?

The Guardian is listed in our free catalogue, but it requires an API key, so you will need to register before your first call. Providers frequently reserve higher limits and commercial use for paid plans.

Does The Guardian need an API key?

Yes. The Guardian authenticates with an API key. Keep it server-side rather than in browser code, because anything in your frontend bundle is readable by anyone who opens developer tools.

Can I call The Guardian from browser JavaScript?

Yes. The Guardian returned CORS headers when we checked it, so a browser will let your page read the response. You can fetch it directly from client-side JavaScript with no proxy and no backend.

Is The Guardian still working?

Yes, as of 2026-09-18. Our automated check reached The Guardian and recorded a 100% reliability score with a median response time of 833 ms. We re-check on a schedule, and this page updates with the result.

Is The Guardian available over HTTPS?

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