# Discord Trending Games API

The ten games trending on Discord this week, ranked, with their official servers.

`GET /v1/discord/games/trending` returns the ten `games` for a published week, ranked. Each entry has `rank`, `applicationId`, `name`, `profileSlug`, `description`, `releaseDate`, `totalPlayersChange`, `streamingChange7d`, `weekTrendingStreak`, cover and screenshot URLs, `serverCount`, `categories` with per-category ranks, and the `officialServer` with its member and online counts when it has a public page.

`week.date` is the published week (`YYYY-MM-DD`), and `week.prevWeek` and `week.nextWeek` link the neighbouring weeks. Pass `week` to ask for a specific Thursday; if Discord does not publish that date it returns another week and sets `weekFallback: true`, so compare `requestedWeek` with `week.date`. Add `category` from the 18 published slugs, for example `shooter`, `rpg` or `survival`, to get that category's top ten.

## FAQ

### Which date do I pass for a week?

A date in YYYY-MM-DD form, for example 2026-10-29. Discord publishes on Thursdays. Omit week for the latest published list.

### What if I ask for a week it does not publish?

You still get a real list, usually the latest week, with weekFallback true. Compare requestedWeek with week.date before you label the data.

### Which categories can I use?

Eighteen slugs such as adventure, crafting, fps, indie, mmo, open-world, rpg, sandbox, shooter, simulation, sports, strategy, survival and tactical. The categories are also listed per game.

### How many credits does a week cost?

Pricing is documented on the operation in the API registry (shown on this page). Confirm on every response with meta.creditsCharged: that field is the billing source of truth.
