Netflix API Developer Blog

As Netflix continues to grow internationally, the emphasis of our engineering efforts is to satisfy a growing member base and a growing number of devices.  To better focus our efforts and to align them with the needs of our global member base, we will be retiring the public API program.  Effective on November 14, 2014, public API developers will no longer be able to access Netflix content.  All requests to the public API will return 404 errors.

Through the process of ending the program, we will be partnering more directly with a small set of developers whose applications have proven to be the most valuable for many of our members.  Those applications will continue to operate beyond November 14, 2014.  The following is a list of these applications:

• Instant Watcher
• Fanhattan
• Yidio
• NextGuide
• Flixster
• Can I Stream It?
• FeedFliks
• Instant Watch Browser for Netflix

Thank you to all of the developers who have participated in the ecosystem throughout the years.
