  res.on('data', (chunk) => data += chunk);
  res.on('end', () => console.log(JSON.parse(data)));
});

req.end();

GraphQL AccessALPHA

Access Country Calling Code through GraphQL to combine it with other API calls in a single request. Query only the country calling code data you need with precise field selection, and orchestrate complex data fetching workflows.

Credit Cost: Each API called in your GraphQL query consumes its standard credit cost.

POST https://api.apiverve.com/v1/graphql

query {
  callingcode(
    input: {
      country: "FR"
    }
  ) {
    country
    officialName
    countryCode
    callingcodes
  }
}

Note: Authentication is handled via the x-api-key header in your GraphQL request, not as a query parameter.

CORS Support

The Country Calling Code API supports Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS) with wildcard configuration, allowing you to call Country Calling Code directly from browser-based applications without proxy servers.

Browser Usage: You can call Country Calling Code directly from JavaScript running in the browser without encountering CORS errors. No proxy server or additional configuration needed.

Rate Limiting

Country Calling Code API requests are subject to rate limiting based on your subscription plan. These limits ensure fair usage and maintain service quality for all Country Calling Code users.

Learn more about rate limiting →

Rate Limit Headers

When rate limits apply, each Country Calling Code response includes headers to help you track your usage:

Handling Rate Limits

Free Plan: When you exceed your rate limit, Country Calling Code returns a 429 Too Many Requests status code. Your application should implement appropriate backoff logic to handle this gracefully.

Paid Plans: No rate limiting or throttling applied. All paid plans (Starter, Pro, Mega) are production-ready.

Best Practices for Country Calling Code:

• Monitor the rate limit headers to track your Country Calling Code usage (Free plan only)
• Cache country calling code responses where appropriate to reduce API calls
• Upgrade to Pro or Mega for guaranteed no-throttle Country Calling Code performance

Note: Country Calling Code rate limits are separate from credit consumption. You may have credits remaining but still hit rate limits when using Country Calling Code on Free tier.

Error Codes

The Country Calling Code API uses standard HTTP status codes to indicate success or failure:
