Dragon Ball API

Look up Dragon Ball data using the free, keyless Dragon Ball API: page through the characters and the planets, filter characters by name, race, gender or affiliation and planets by name or whether they have been destroyed, and fetch any single record by id along with a character's transformations or a planet's natives. No account or API key required. Disclaimer: this is an independent integration with the community-run Dragon Ball API (dragonball-api.com). It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Akira Toriyama, Shueisha, Toei Animation, Bird Studio, or Crunchyroll; Dragon Ball and all related names, characters, and trademarks are the property of their respective owners.

Get a character

Get a single Dragon Ball character by id. This is the only lookup that carries the character's origin planet and their transformations, both of which the listing actions leave out.

Inputs

Charactercharacter_idtextRequired: Pick a character, or reference one from a previous step by its ID.

Outputs

        "ki": "3 Billion",
        "name": "Super Saiyan"
      }
    ]
  }
}

Get a character's transformations

List every transformation of one character, such as Goku's Super Saiyan forms. The API has no route of its own for these, so this reads them off the character record and hands back just the list, named and counted. Plenty of characters have none, which returns an empty list rather than an error.

Inputs

Charactercharacter_idtextRequired: Pick a character, or reference one from a previous step by its ID.

Outputs

character_idnumber: The id of the character they belong to.
character_nametext: The name of the character they belong to.
countnumber: How many transformations the character has.
transformationslist: The character's transformations, empty for a character with none.

Example output

{
  "character_id": 1,
  "character_name": "Goku",
  "count": 1,
  "transformations": [
    {
      "deletedAt": null,
      "id": 1,
      "image": "https://dragonball-api.com/transformaciones/goku_ssj.webp",
      "ki": "3 Billion",
      "name": "Super Saiyan"
    }
  ]
}

Get a planet

Get a single planet by id. This is the only lookup that carries the characters who come from it, which the listing actions leave out.

Inputs

Planetplanet_idtextRequired: Pick a planet, or reference one from a previous step by its ID.

Outputs

planetobject

{
  "planet": {
    "characters": [
      {

  }
}

List a planet's characters

List the characters who come from one planet. The API has no route of its own for these, so this reads them off the planet record and hands back just the list, named and counted. Some planets have nobody associated with them, which returns an empty list rather than an error.

Inputs

Planetplanet_idtextRequired: Pick a planet, or reference one from a previous step by its ID.

Outputs

characterslist: The characters who come from this planet, empty when none do.
countnumber: How many characters come from the planet.
planet_idnumber: The id of the planet.
planet_nametext: The name of the planet.

Example output

  "planet_id": 2,
  "planet_name": "Tierra"
}

Search characters

Find characters by name, race, gender or affiliation, in any combination: race Saiyan with affiliation Z Fighter returns every Saiyan fighting on that side. At least one filter is required. A filtered query is not paginated, so this returns every match at once rather than a page of them, and nothing matching returns an empty list rather than an error.

Inputs

Namenametext: Filter by name. The API matches on the name it holds, so this is the character's own name rather than a description of them. Leave empty to filter on the other fields alone.
Raceracetext: Only return characters of this race. These are the races the API documents; leave empty for all of them.One of: Human, Saiyan, Namekian, Majin, Frieza Race, Android, Jiren Race, God, Angel, Evil, and 3 more.
Gendergendertext: Only return characters of this gender. Leave empty for all of them.One of: Male, Female, Unknown.
Affiliationaffiliationtext: Only return characters with this affiliation, which is the side or organisation the API files them under. These are the affiliations it documents; leave empty for all of them.One of: Z Fighter, Red Ribbon Army, Namekian Warrior, Freelancer, Army of Frieza, Pride Troopers, Assistant of Vermoud, God, Assistant of Beerus, Villain, Other.

Outputs

characterslist: Every character that matched. A filtered query is not paginated, so this is the whole result.
countnumber: How many characters matched.
filtersobject: The filters that were sent, as the API received them.

Example output

{
  "characters": [
    {
      "affiliation": "Z Fighter",
      "deletedAt": null,
      "description": "El protagonista de la serie, conocido por su gran poder y su bondad.",

    "race": "Saiyan"
  }
}

Namenametext: Filter by planet name. Leave empty to filter on destroyed status alone.
Destroyedis_destroyedtext: Only return planets that have been destroyed, or only ones that are still standing. Leave empty for both.One of: true (Destroyed), false (Still standing).
