LAPIS API not working for you?

  1. A 429 response means you're being rate-limited. Slow down, cache responses, and respect any Retry-After header.
  2. If it works from one network but not another, check firewalls, VPNs and regional blocks.
  3. Check the provider's documentation, status page or social accounts for planned maintenance or a changed endpoint.

LAPIS API status FAQ

Is LAPIS API down right now?

Our latest daily check of LAPIS (Oct 24, 2026, 12:25 UTC) failed: its TLS certificate has expired. One failure can be a blip; the live check below tells you whether it's still failing. This page also runs a live check from our server when you open it, so you can see whether LAPIS is responding at this moment.

How do you check whether LAPIS API is up?

Once a day our checker requests LAPIS's listed URL (https://cov-spectrum.ethz.ch/public) and records whether it answers within 15 seconds. Answers like 401 (needs a key), 403 (blocks bots) or 429 (rate-limited) count as up, because the server responded. The listed URL is often the documentation page, so an API endpoint can occasionally fail while its docs stay up.

What can I use if LAPIS API is down?

Free Health APIs that were up at their last check include FindSaunaPlunge, Longevity World Cup, Open Disease. See the full list of LAPIS alternatives for a comparison.

Why does LAPIS API work for others but not for me?

A 429 response means you're being rate-limited. Slow down, cache responses, and respect any Retry-After header. If it works from one network but not another, check firewalls, VPNs and regional blocks. Check the provider's documentation, status page or social accounts for planned maintenance or a changed endpoint.
