LLM](https://microlink.io/docs/api/getting-started/data-fields.md "Copy content for LLM") \| [View as Markdown](https://microlink.io/docs/api/getting-started/data-fields.md "View content as Markdown") When you send a [url](https://microlink.io/docs/api/parameters/url) to Microlink API, the following data fields are detected by default: - `author` (e.g., 'SpaceX')\ A human-readable representation of the author's name. - `date` (e.g., 2018-01-24T18:39:47.000Z)\ An [ISO 8601](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_8601) representation of the date the article was published. - `description` (e.g., 'First static fire test of Falcon Heavy…')\ The publisher's chosen description of the article. - `image` (e.g., https://cdn.instagram.com/…/171196260320789.jpg)\ An image URL that best represents the article. - `video` (e.g., 'https://cdn.instagram.com/…/26867070.mp4')\ A video URL that best represents the article. - `lang` (e.g., en)\ An [ISO 639-1](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_639-1) representation of the url content language. - `logo` (e.g., 'https://logo.clearbit.com/instagram.com')\ An image URL that best represents the publisher brand. - `publisher` (e.g., 'Instagram')\ A human-readable representation of the publisher's name. - `title` (e.g., 'Manufactures Advanced Rockets & Spacecraft')\ The publisher's chosen title of the article. - `url` (e.g., 'https://instagram.com/p/BeV6tOhFUor')\ The URL of the article. When a data field is media content, the following contextual data will be also returned: - `width`: file width in pixels. - `height`: file width in pixels. - `type`: file type extension. - `size`: file size in bytes. - `size_pretty` file size in a human readable format. Moreover, if the media content is playable (such as [video](https://microlink.io/docs/api/parameters/video) or [audio](https://microlink.io/docs/api/parameters/audio)), the following fields will be added as well: - `duration`: source duration in seconds. - `duration_pretty` source duration in a human readable format. You can customize this behavior via [meta](https://microlink.io/docs/api/parameters/meta) and/or [data](https://microlink.io/docs/api/parameters/data) in order to add specific data rules over the target URL. Additionally, Microlink gives you some HTTP information over the target URL, such as: - `statusCode`: The HTTP status code associated with the url response. - `headers`: The HTTP response headers associated with the url response. - `redirects`: A collection of HTTP redirects, where each entry contains the status code and URL for redirects followed from the original URL. The service also returns a `status` field to represent the stage of the current transaction. You can read [format](https://microlink.io/docs/api/basics/format) section to know more about that.
