PyPI offers two JSON endpoints.
Attention!
The releases
key on this response should be considered deprecated,
and projects should shift to using the simple API (which can be accessed
as JSON via PEP 691) to get this information where possible.
In the future, the releases
key may be removed from this response.
Attention!
The downloads
key on this response should be considered deprecated.
It currently always returns -1
and in the future, the downloads
key may be removed from this response.
Attention!
The has_sig
key on this response should be considered deprecated.
It currently always returns false
and in the future, the has_sig
key may be removed from this response.
Attention!
The bugtrack_url
key on this response should be considered deprecated.
It currently always returns null
and in the future, the bugtrack_url
key may be removed from this response.
.. http:get:: /pypi/<project_name>/json Returns metadata (info) about an individual project at the latest version, a list of all releases for that project, and project URLs. Releases include the release name, URL, and hash digests for MD5, SHA256, and BLAKE2b-256, and are keyed by the release version string. Metadata returned comes from the values provided at upload time and does not necessarily match the content of the uploaded files. The first uploaded data for a release is stored, subsequent uploads do not update it. **Example Request**: .. code:: http GET /pypi/sampleproject/json HTTP/1.1 Host: pypi.org Accept: application/json **Example response**: .. code:: http HTTP/1.1 200 OK Content-Type: application/json; charset="UTF-8" { "info": { "author": "", "author_email": "\"A.

Attention!
Previously this response included the releases
key, which had the URLs
for all files for every release of this project on PyPI. Due to stability
concerns, this had to be removed from the release specific page, which now
ONLY serves data specific to that release.
To access all files, you should preferrably use the simple API, or otherwise
use the non versioned json api at /pypi/<project_name>/json
.
Attention!
The downloads
key on this response should be considered deprecated.
It currently always returns -1
and in the future, the downloads
key may be removed from this response.
Attention!
The has_sig
key on this response should be considered deprecated.
It currently always returns false
and in the future, the has_sig
key may be removed from this response.
Attention!
The bugtrack_url
key on this response should be considered deprecated.
It currently always returns null
and in the future, the bugtrack_url
key may be removed from this response.

The withdrawn
field is of particular interest: when non-null
, it
contains the RFC 3339 timestamp when the vulnerability was withdrawn by an
upstream vulnerability reporting source. API consumers can use this field to
retract vulnerability reports that are later determined to be invalid.
For example, here is what a withdrawn vulnerability might look like:
