Matomo Insights API is one of 61 APIs that [Matomo](https://apis.io/providers/matomo/) publishes on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network, described by a machine-readable OpenAPI specification. Tagged areas include Analytics, Insights, and Anomalies. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes an OpenAPI specification and API documentation.

The Matomo Insights API exposes 5 operations of the Matomo Reporting API (module `Insights`). Automatic movers-and-shakers analysis — which report rows changed most between two periods. Every operation is dispatched through the single `/index.php?module=API&method=Insights.<Action>` entrypoint on the customer's own Matomo instance, self-hosted or on Matomo Cloud. The OpenAPI 3.1.0 document is Matomo's own, generated by its first-party ApiReference plugin.
