Welcome

The Fathom Analytics API allows you to take complete control of your Fathom account. You can control all entities within the account and generate ad-hoc custom reports. It’s an incredibly powerful API, and we’ve tried to cater to every possible use case.

Each API request counts against your total monthly pageviews. So if you make 10 Create Site requests, that will count in the same way that 10 pageviews would. We do this because we want to give you the flexibility to use our API how you wish, and we want to ensure it’s sustainable without us having to raise plan prices.

When running complex aggregation queries that are unique (haven’t been run before by any user), you will experience a slight lag for the first time you run the query. This is because our database engine has to create a “query plan”, to find the most optimal way to run what you’re asking for. After that, it will be rapid.

If there’s anything you think we should add, please let us know at support@usefathom.com.
