Run the following request in your console of choice:

curl -H 'token: YOUR_API_KEY' https://api.abortionpolicyapi.com/v1/waiting_periods/zips/30313

and you should see the following result:

{ "Georgia":{ "waiting_period_hours":24, "counseling_visits":1, "counseling_waived_condition":"In cases of medical emergency."} }

If you want to run requests like this with the assistance of a GUI, we recommend Postman.

Code snippet (executable code example on GitHub):

var rp = require('request-promise');

var apiKey = 'YOUR_API_KEY';

// Count the number of states that require parental consent for minors

rp({

uri: 'https://api.abortionpolicyapi.com/v1/minors/states',

method: 'GET',

headers: { 'token': apiKey },

json: true

}).then(function success(response) {

if (response) {

var states = Object.keys(response);

var count = states.reduce((count, state) => {

return count + (response[state].parental_consent_required == true);

}, 0);

after running this from the console, you should see something like:

Number of states that require parental consent: 26

Code snippet (executable code example on GitHub):

import requests

apikey = 'YOUR_API_KEY'

url = 'https://api.abortionpolicyapi.com/v1/gestational_limits/states'

headers = { 'token': apikey }

r = requests.get(url, headers=headers)

states = r.json()

limit_at_viability = [state for state in states.keys() if states[state].get('banned_after_weeks_since_LMP') == 99]

limit_at_viability.sort()

message = f"The states that ban abortion at viability are: {', '.join(limit_at_viability)}"

print(message)

after running this from the console, you should see something like:

The states that ban abortion at viability are: Arizona, California, Connecticut,

Delaware, District of Columbia, Hawaii, Idaho, Illinois, Maine, Maryland, Michigan,

Minnesota, Missouri, Montana, Tennessee, Utah, Washington, Wyoming

A Note About Rate Limits:

The underlying database we’re using limits us to 5 requests/second. You may get a 429 error if you try to request data more rapidly than that. We are working on improving this.
