WikibaseManifest

WikibaseManifest is an extension that combines metadata about a Wikibase installation exposing it as a simple API. The goal is to help toolmakers write tools that can target any Wikibase.

The manifest will be exposed at an endpoint such as https://www.wikidata.org/w/rest.php/wikibase-manifest/v0/manifest
