Maximize Your Potential with Fansly API

FanslyAPI provides a fully managed, production-ready REST API designed specifically for developers. Whether you're building sophisticated AI chatbots, creator dashboards, or complex analytics tools, our infrastructure handles the heavy lifting—browser automation, proxy rotation, and security—so you can focus on building features.

Our API gives you access to public data from over 2 million Fansly creator profiles and allows for deep account integration, making it the most robust solution for Fansly developers.

Follow this high-level guide to get your first integration up and running in minutes.

1. Secure Your API Credentials

Your API key is the gateway to our services. It identifies your application and authorizes your requests across our global infrastructure.

  • Register: Create your developer account at FanslyAPI Dashboard.
  • Generate Key: Visit the API Keys management page.
  • Store Safely: Use environment variables to keep your keys out of source control.
  • Resetting: If your key is compromised, you can revoke and regenerate it instantly from the dashboard.

2. Link Your Fansly Accounts

For actions like automated messaging, subscription management, or fan engagement tracking, you'll need to link a Fansly account via our secure protocol.

  • Navigate to the Accounts section in your dashboard.
  • Use the "+ Connect Account" flow, which fully supports 2FA and secure session handling.
  • IP Management: Choose between using our managed proxies or your own custom proxy for specific account actions.
  • Health Monitoring: Track the connection status and health of your linked accounts in real-time.

3. Master the Fundamentals

Understanding these core pillars will ensure your application scales effectively and remains reliable:

  • Robust Response Models: All endpoints return structured JSON for easy parsing.
  • Efficient Credit System:
    • Pay only for what you use with our granular credit billing.
    • Monitor usage and top up credits directly from the billing tab.
  • Smart Rate Limiting: Our system protects your integration and the platform's stability.
  • Managed Connectivity: Benefit from our built-in proxy and IP management system.
