Can I get facts in languages other than English?
Yes! The get_random_fact and get_today_fact capabilities both support an optional language parameter. You can choose between English ('en') and German ('de').
- 02
Is the 'Fact of the Day' the same every time I call it?
The get_today_fact capability returns the same designated fact for the duration of the current day. It updates once every 24 hours.
