Scryfall Migrations API

openapi: 3.2.0
info:
  title: Scryfall Migrations API
  description: 'The Scryfall API is a REST-like interface to the most comprehensive Magic: The Gathering

    card database. It exposes Card, Set, Ruling, Symbology, Catalog, and Bulk Data resources

    used by community tools, deck builders, price trackers, and research projects.


    The API is provided free of charge as part of the Wizards of the Coast Fan Content Policy

    for the primary purpose of creating additional Magic software, performing research, or

    creating community content. It is served only over HTTPS (TLS 1.2+) and requires both a

    descriptive User-Agent and an Accept header on every request. Clients are expected to

    keep request rates under 10 per second (50–100 ms delay between calls), and to use the

    bulk-data downloads for any large-scale ingestion task instead of crawling Card endpoints.
