Quick Start

Umami Cloud (API Key)

Umami Cloud: https://cloud.umami.is/ (Get your API key)

import UmamiClient from 'umami-api-client';

const doIt = async () => {
    try {
        const client = new UmamiClient();
        // default is // new UmamiClient({cloudApiKey:process.env.UMAMI_CLOUD_API_KEY});
        const identity = await client.me();
        console.log(`🔑 Api key details:\n${JSON.stringify(identity?.user,null,2)}`);

        const sitesData = await client.websites();
        const filteredSitesData = sitesData.map(({ id, name, createdAt, domain }) => ({ id, name, createdAt, domain }));
        console.log("🗂️ List of Tracked Websites:");
        console.table(filteredSitesData);

        const websiteStats = await client.websiteStats(sitesData[0].id);
        console.log(`📊 Website Stats for: ${sitesData[0].name}`);
        console.table(websiteStats);
    } catch(error) {
        console.error(error);
    }
};

doIt().then(r => {});

Umami Hosted (Self-hosted)

Self-hosted Umami instance with login/password authentication.

import UmamiClient from 'umami-api-client';

const doIt = async () => {
    try {
        const client = new UmamiClient();
        // default is // new UmamiClient({server:process.env.UMAMI_SERVER});
        await client.login();
        // default is // client.login(process.env.UMAMI_USER, process.env.UMAMI_PASSWORD)
        const sitesData = await client.websites();
        const filteredSitesData = sitesData.map(({ id, name, createdAt, domain }) => ({ id, name, createdAt, domain }));
        console.log("🗂️ List of Tracked Websites:");
        console.table(filteredSitesData);

        const websiteStats = await client.websiteStats(sitesData[0].id);
        console.log(`📊 Website Stats for: ${sitesData[0].name}`);
        console.table(websiteStats);
    } catch(error) {
        console.error(error);
    }
};

doIt().then(r => {});

Explicit Configuration (no env vars)

// Cloud mode
const client = new UmamiClient({ cloudApiKey: 'your-api-key' });

// Hosted mode
const client = new UmamiClient({ server: 'https://umami.example.com' });
await client.login('admin', 'password');

API Methods

Authentication

• me() - Get user info (Cloud mode)
• login(username, password) - Login (Hosted mode)
• logout() - Logout (Hosted mode)

Websites

• websites() - List all websites
• selectSiteByDomain(sites, domain) - Select site by domain

Statistics

• websiteStats(websiteId, period, options) - Get website stats
• websitePageViews(websiteId, period, options) - Get pageviews timeline
• websiteMetrics(websiteId, period, options) - Get metrics (urls, referrers, browsers, etc.)
• websiteEvents(websiteId, period, options) - Get events (paginated)
• websiteSessions(websiteId, period, options) - Get sessions (paginated)

Links (Umami v3.x) ✅

• links(options) - List all links (short URLs)
• getLink(linkId) - Get link details
• linkStats(linkId, period, options) - Get link statistics (alias for websiteStats)

Pixels (Umami v3.x) ✅

• pixels(options) - List all pixels (tracking pixels)
• getPixel(pixelId) - Get pixel details
• pixelStats(pixelId, period, options) - Get pixel statistics (alias for websiteStats)

Segments & Cohorts (Umami v3.x) ❌

⚠️ Not Implemented: Segments and Cohorts APIs are not available in this client.
Use the Umami web UI to manage segments and cohorts.

📝 Note: In Umami v3, links and pixels use the websites stats endpoint. linkStats() and pixelStats() are aliases for websiteStats() where the ID serves as websiteId.

Periods

Accepted values: 1h, 24h, 7d, 1w, 30d, 1m

Usage Examples

Links API

import UmamiClient from 'umami-api-client';

const client = new UmamiClient();
await client.login(); // or use cloud API key

// Get all links
const linksData = await client.links({ page: 1, pageSize: 10 });
console.log(`Total links: ${linksData.data.length}`);

// Get specific link
const linkId = linksData.data[0].id;
const linkDetails = await client.getLink(linkId);
console.log(`Link URL: ${linkDetails.url}`);

// Get link statistics (uses /api/websites/:linkId/stats)
const stats = await client.linkStats(linkId, '7d', { unit: 'day' });
console.log('Link stats:', stats);

// Alternative: use websiteStats() directly (same result)
const sameStats = await client.websiteStats(linkId, '7d', { unit: 'day' });

Pixels API

import UmamiClient from 'umami-api-client';

const client = new UmamiClient();
await client.login(); // or use cloud API key

// Get all pixels
const pixelsData = await client.pixels({ page: 1, pageSize: 10 });
console.log(`Total pixels: ${pixelsData.data.length}`);

// Get specific pixel
const pixelId = pixelsData.data[0].id;
const pixelDetails = await client.getPixel(pixelId);
console.log(`Pixel: ${pixelDetails.name} (${pixelDetails.slug})`);

// Get pixel statistics (uses /api/websites/:pixelId/stats)
const stats = await client.pixelStats(pixelId, '7d', { unit: 'day' });
console.log('Pixel stats:', stats);
