About the API:
An API with one of the largest book databases on the internet. Be able to get popular books by genre, get their synopsis, books of the year, popularity by genre, and much more.
This API will receive, for example, the name of the Book and you will receive its publishing date, its author, its rating, and its cover picture.
At another endpoint, you will pass the genre of your choice and the year, and you will be receiving the most popular and most awarded books of that genre in that year.
This API is ideal for those developers that want to create an app for book enthusiasts. Get ready to serve your users with recommendations based on their preferences, and give them additional information about a book before they decide to buy it, and customize their experience.
Besides API call limitations per month, there are no other limitations.
Given a book name (where spaces must be replaced by '+') you will receive a list of corresponding books. This list can return up to 20 books related to the input.

Zyla API Hub is, in other words, an API MarketPlace. An all-in-one solution for your developing needs. You will be accessing our extended list of APIs with only your user. Also, you won't need to worry about storing API keys, only one API key for all our products is needed.
Prices are listed in USD. We accept all major debit and credit cards. Our payment system uses the latest security technology and is powered by Stripe, one of the worldβs most reliable payment companies. If you have any trouble with paying by card, just contact us at [email protected]
Sometimes depending on the bank's fraud protection settings, a bank will decline the validation charge we make when we attempt to be sure a card is valid. We recommend first contacting your bank to see if they are blocking our charges. If more help is needed, please contact [email protected] and our team will investigate further
Prices are based on a recurring monthly subscription depending on the plan selected β plus overage fees applied when a developer exceeds a planβs quota limits. In this example, you'll see the base plan amount as well as a quota limit of API requests. Be sure to notice the overage fee because you will be charged for each additional request.
Zyla API Hub works on a recurring monthly subscription system. Your billing cycle will start the day you purchase one of the paid plans, and it will renew the same day of the next month. So be aware to cancel your subscription beforehand if you want to avoid future charges.
Just go to the pricing page of that API and select the plan that you want to upgrade to. You will only be charged the full amount of that plan, but you will be enjoying the features that the plan offers right away.
Yes, absolutely. If you want to cancel your plan, simply go to your account and cancel on the Billing page. Upgrades, downgrades, and cancellations are immediate.
