We're proud to announce that you can now use our platform natively in Microsoft Excel.

Making our product as easy to use as possible has always been important to us. That's why we've developed a native integration of our service into Microsoft Excel.

You may have used our Excel genderization before. Without the native extension, you had to save and upload your Excel file to our platform. An assistant guided you through the process of enriching this file. After our server processed the file, you were able to download your file with added gender information.

But now, it's easier than ever to process an Excel file. You can install our Excel add-on through the Microsoft store and you can enrich your file directly within your sheet.

Our team has done a great job creating a step-by-step guide on how you can enable the add-on. You can find the complete guide here.

You can now view our complete API documentation in Swagger. With Swagger, you can view all our API endpoints in detail. The tool lets you inspect every request and every response. You can view every variable, its type and description. And awesomely, Swagger allows you to try and play with every API endpoint. You can provide custom data and execute the queries directly from the tool.

You can also download the OpenAPI definition file, which Swagger uses internally. You can directly import this file in various tools like Postman.

Genderizing a name is now more accessible than ever. Easily integrate our service into your Zapier workflow. Zapier allows end-users to integrate the web applications they use. They offer an easy solution to combine multiple apps and APIs into a single workflow.

Conditionally run

With Gender-API.com in your Zapier workflow, you can build conditional runs based on the result of our API. With Paths you can have one automatic workflow carry out different tasks, depending on the data our service provides.

Only if

You can use "only if" paths to continue only if the gender matches a specific condition. Filters allow Zaps in Zapier to only perform actions on the items you want. Filters help you to set a specific condition, and the Zap will only continue if the data from our integration meets that condition.

Within the last months our team has worked very hard, to put a big update together.

To provide you a better user experience we've upgraded the API as well as the entire web page.

We put a list together to give you an overview of the new features.

Improved CSV and Excel upload

We've made several adjustments to our CSV and Excel upload to improve results under rare edge cases. Also, the assistant now scales better on devices with a smaller screen like tablets and smartphones.

Completely rewritten usage statistic

We've rewritten the usage statistic in your account. The widget now also better scales on tablets and smartphones and gives you a faster overview of the spent requests.

All new authentication token manager

The token manager in your account now works more intuitively and has been better integrated into the existing system. You can generate different keys to access the Gender-API.com for different projects. This keys can also be deleted at any time.

Fully redesigned list of recently processed files

The list of processed Excel and CSV files in your account got a full redesign and is now much more responsive. You can now see if a file is still being processed and download or delete your files here at any time.

Improved dark mode

You can choose to use a dark mode on more and more browsers and devices. The Gender-API.com website supported the browsers dark mode flag from the beginning. We're making continuous improvements here to make this experience even better. Also, we've replaced our contact form with a completely rewritten one. The widget now better supports the dark mode browser setting.

Thanks to all our customers to make this possible. Stay safe.
