FAQ

Questions Uselessfacts owners ask.

  • 01

    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.

  • 03

    How can I retrieve a specific fact I saw previously?

    Every fact has a unique ID. If you have that ID, you can use the get_fact capability to retrieve that exact piece of trivia at any time.
