The World of Warcraft API, or WoW API, is a set of functions provided by Blizzard to interact with and modify the World of Warcraft interface and behavior through the use of addons and macros. The list of functions below is incomplete and kept up to date by user contributions; Global Function List is a more complete (but undocumented) version of this list.

If you're considering contributing documentation, please read How to edit API pages. In summary: do not create empty stub pages, update this page (and the linked pages) as needed, and discuss any large-scale changes on the Discussion page.

If you need help reading the documentation, see API notation and conventions. You can also examine the existing UI code to find examples of how the various functions are used by the default UI. Function names could be prefixed with the following tags:

  • PROTECTED - This function can only be called from secure code. See the Protected Functions category.
  • UI - This function is implemented in Lua (in FrameXML) but was considered important enough to appear here.
  • REMOVED - This function has been removed from the World of Warcraft API (and should also be removed from this list). For historical purposes, see the Removed Functions category.
