FAQ

Questions Open Trivia Database owners ask.

  • 01

    Is an API Key required for The Trivia API?

    No. The Trivia API provides a free and open service. This server works out of the box without any static credentials required.

  • 02

    Can I filter questions by difficulty?

    Yes. Use the get_trivia_questions capability and provide the difficulties parameter (e.g., 'easy' or 'hard'). Your agent will return matching questions instantly.

  • 03

    What format are the answers in?

    The API provides a correct answer and a list of incorrect answers. Your agent automatically combines and sorts these into a list of choices for each question.
