How it works
4 steps to the multisource•api
Order your API key
Start with 60 days free on the Starter Plan (1,000 hits/month). You'll receive your key within 24 hours by email.
Update your integration
The multisource•api is a modern REST API with JSON response – structurally different from the Atom/XML-based search.ch API. The documentation (Call Lookup • Search & Autocomplete) and the Swagger Explorer help you get started. Questions? We're here.
Test & go live
Use the first 60 days to test and integrate. Once everything works, your Starter Plan continues automatically – or switch to a higher plan anytime.
6 months
Time for the switch.
The search.ch API remains active during the transition period. We recommend starting early – so you have buffer for testing and any questions.
