Citeability API
For developers: run the Citeability checks from any website system or publishing pipeline before content goes live.
Where to find it: askhercules.app/api (developer docs).
Steps
- 1
Create an API key (see the next guide).
- 2
Open askhercules.app/api to read the endpoints and examples.

Customer details in screenshots are hidden or replaced with sample text. - 3
Send your page content to the Citeability endpoint with your key in the X-API-Key header.
- 4
Read the results and block publishing if checks fail.
What you'll see
- One key works for the Citeability, KSM™ and CRI™ APIs.
Common problems
- I get an "unauthorized" error.
- Check that the key is copied fully and sent in the X-API-Key header.
