Overview
Ring Size Converter works through inside diameter in millimetres. A lookup table maps US sizes 3 to 14 in half sizes, UK letters F to Z plus Z+1 and Z+2, and EU sizes 44 to 66 to diameters from 14.1 mm to 23.0 mm. The `size` and `from` parameters are converted to a diameter first; the `measurement` parameter, a diameter from 10 to 30 mm, skips that step and takes priority when both are sent.
For `from=us` and `from=eu`, a size missing from the table is interpolated at 0.4 mm per step, so a quarter size still converts. For `uk` and `au`, the letter must be in the table or the call returns a 400. `jp` input is read directly as a diameter. `ch` input is treated as a ring number equal to the inner circumference minus 40.
From the diameter, `circumference_mm` is diameter times pi, rounded to one decimal. `us`, `uk` and `eu` are the table entries whose diameter is nearest, so output US sizes always land on a half size. `au` is the same letter as `uk`. `jp` is the diameter truncated to a whole millimetre. `ch` is the circumference minus 40, truncated to a whole number. `input_diameter_mm` and `conversions.diameter_mm` echo the diameter actually used, which for interpolated or `ch` input can carry more decimals than the table values.
On the Free plan `eu`, `jp`, `ch` and `au` are removed from `conversions`; the diameter, circumference, `us` and `uk` remain.

Endpoint
One host, one path per API. The block below shows this call in four languages; every one of them is the same HTTP request. Making requests covers the timeouts, retries and parameter rules that apply to all of them. The SDKs wrap the same call in a typed client.
curl "https://api.apiverve.com/v1/ringsizeconverter?size=7&from=us" \
-H "x-api-key: your_api_key_here"const res = await fetch('https://api.apiverve.com/v1/ringsizeconverter?size=7&from=us', {
headers: { 'x-api-key': 'your_api_key_here' },
});
if (!res.ok) throw new Error(`${res.status} ${await res.text()}`);
const { data } = await res.json();
console.log(data);import requests
res = requests.get(
"https://api.apiverve.com/v1/ringsizeconverter?size=7&from=us",
headers={"x-api-key": "your_api_key_here"},
timeout=15,
)
res.raise_for_status()
print(res.json()["data"])package main
import (
"fmt"
"io"
"net/http"
)
func main() {
req, _ := http.NewRequest("GET", "https://api.apiverve.com/v1/ringsizeconverter?size=7&from=us", nil)
req.Header.Set("x-api-key", "your_api_key_here")
res, err := http.DefaultClient.Do(req)
if err != nil {
panic(err)
}
defer res.Body.Close()
out, _ := io.ReadAll(res.Body)
fmt.Println(string(out))
}Replace your_api_key_here with the key from your dashboard. When the inputs arrive as a list rather than one at a time, batch requests run up to 200 of them through this same API in a single call.
Authentication
Send your key in the x-api-key header. That is the only auth step — there is no token exchange and no per-endpoint scope to configure. Authentication covers creating, rotating and revoking keys.
A 401 means the key is missing, invalid or expired. A 403 means the key is valid but not permitted here — blocked by a key restriction or an IP allow-list. Running out of credits is a 429.
Parameters
Sent in the query string. Premium parameters are accepted on every plan but only take effect on plans that include them.
| Parameter | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
sizeRequired | string | The ring size to convert |
fromRequired | string | Source regionusukeujpchau |
Response
Every API returns the same three top-level keys, so one response handler covers your whole integration: status, error and data. Only data changes shape. Response format covers the envelope, the other output formats and how premium fields are withheld.
{
"status": "ok",
"error": null,
"data": {
"input_diameter_mm": 17.3,
"circumference_mm": 54.3,
"conversions": {
"diameter_mm": 17.3,
"circumference_mm": 54.3,
"us": 7,
"uk": "N",
"eu": 52,
"jp": 17,
"ch": -22,
"au": "N"
},
"note": "Sizes are approximate. For accurate sizing, visit a jeweler."
}
}
Response fields
Paths are relative to data. Premium fields are absent rather than zeroed on plans that do not include them, so check for presence instead of comparing to 0.
| Field | Type | Example | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
input_diameter_mm | number | 17.3 | Ring diameter in millimeters |
circumference_mm | number | 54.3 | Inside circumference of the ring in millimetres |
conversions | object | {...} | The equivalent size in every supported sizing system |
diameter_mm | number | 17.3 | Inside diameter in millimetres |
circumference_mm | number | 54.3 | Inside circumference in millimetres |
us | number | 7 | US ring size |
uk | string | "N" | UK ring size |
euPremium | number | 52 | EU ring size |
jpPremium | number | 17 | Japanese ring size |
chPremium | number | -22 | Swiss ring size |
auPremium | string | "N" | Australian ring size |
note | string | "Sizes are approximate. For accurate sizing, visit a jeweler." | Caveat that sizes are approximate and a jeweller should confirm |
Errors
Read the HTTP status first, then error for the specific reason. The body names the parameter that has to change. Error handling covers the full status list and which of them are worth retrying.
| Status | Meaning | What to do |
|---|---|---|
400 | Input was rejected | Read error; it names the parameter. |
401 | Key missing or invalid | Check the header name and the key value. |
403 | Key valid, but not permitted | A key restriction or IP allow-list; see key scoping. |
429 | Rate limited, or out of credits | Read error to tell them apart; see rate limits. |
