Etsy vs SnapshotAPI: common questions

Which is more reliable, Etsy or SnapshotAPI?

Both are neck-and-neck — Etsy and SnapshotAPI each measure 0.0% uptime over 90 days on our probe schedule. Reliability here is verified from our own scheduled checks; use the 30-day bars above to see which has been steadier lately.

Do Etsy and SnapshotAPI need an API key?

Both ask you to authenticate — Etsy uses an API key and SnapshotAPI uses an API key. Each key is free to obtain; the Auth and Card-required rows above spell out the signup terms.

Can I call Etsy and SnapshotAPI from the browser?

Only Etsy is browser-friendly — it returns CORS headers over HTTPS. SnapshotAPI needs a server-side call or proxy, so factor that into which one fits a front-end project.

Are Etsy and SnapshotAPI free for commercial use?

Etsy has unclear commercial terms, and SnapshotAPI has unclear commercial terms. We track service terms and the data license as separate fields — see the Commercial use and Data license rows above, and confirm both before shipping either in a paid product.
