Bytes difference data
Given a Mediawiki project and a date range, returns a timeseries of bytes difference net
sums. You can filter by editors-type (all-editor-types, anonymous, group-bot, name-bot,
user) and page-type (all-page-types, content or non-content). You can choose between
daily and monthly granularity as well.

Request

Path Params
project
string 
required
The name of any Wikimedia project formatted like {language code}.{project name},
for example en.wikipedia. You may pass en.wikipedia.org and the .org will be stripped
off. For projects like commons without language codes, use commons.wikimedia. For
projects like www.mediawiki.org, you can use that full string, or just use mediawiki
or mediawiki.org. If you're interested in the aggregation of all projects, use
all-projects.
editor-type
string 
required
If you want to filter by editor-type, use one of anonymous, group-bot (registered
accounts belonging to the bot group), name-bot (registered accounts not belonging to
the bot group but having bot-like names) or user (registered account not in bot group
nor having bot-like name). If you are interested in edits regardless of their
editor-type, use all-editor-types.
page-type
string 
required
If you want to filter by page-type, use one of content (edits on pages in content
namespaces) or non-content (edits on pages in non-content namespaces). If you are
interested in edits regardless of their page-type, use all-page-types.
granularity
string 
required
Time unit for the response data. As of today, supported values are daily and monthly
start
string 
required
The date of the first day to include, in YYYYMMDD format
end
string 
required
The date of the last day to include, in YYYYMMDD format
