Render Service isn't working
by peekaay.3471 in API Development
I'm trying to load files via the render service, and it keeps throwing file couldnt load error.
Is the service down?

ChieftainAlex

@ChieftainAlex

all of the pvp build template items given for free when you equip a build template should be whitelisted (they aren't)

Magic Find
by Dash.3179 in API Development
Is there any way to view a characters/Account-wide Magic Find?
I feel like this should be in "v2/characters", or at least have the account's base stat under "account", but I can't see it anywhere.

mkalte

@mkalte666

heya. im facing something weird: im playing around with the v2 items and characters endpoint. characters returns me ids for bags, and i cannot resolve the starter backpack against the items endpoint. the rest does work (some 10 slot bag, invisible bag, etc.). Is this due to the whitelist wipe i read about?

darthmaim

@darthmaim

yes :(

mkalte

@mkalte666

damn :/

how does one rediscover the starter backpack then

darthmaim

@darthmaim

since no one really acquires the starter backpack because its already on the character when you created them, it can't get auto whitelisted

it was manually whitelisted before the wipe

mkalte

@mkalte666

ahh

thanks for the info

Teamspeak auto-verify through API
by ClaraFee.2579 in API Development
Hi friends! I recently played on a WvW Teamspeak that has an auto-verify feature that works with the GW2 API. This was Fort Aspenwood specifically, but I know Blackgate has something similar too.
I want to add this to the Teamspeak server that I run. Do any of you have any links to this resource and/or instructions on how to do it? Thanks for your time.

Hmm, has anyone figured out the possible enum values for the state property in /v2/guild/:id/teams? 🤔

seems they aren't documented, but so far I've seen "Active"

[Suggestion] Ability to capture an event when an API key is deleted.
by peekaay.3471 in API Development
Basically an event or via a web hook, to subscribe to a API key delete. (or more kinds of event, if any)
Is this a possible feature?

Archomeda

@Archomeda

^ what lol

Ryan Mast

@nightlark

I guess they want a notification when an API key becomes invalid

if you attempt to access an API with an invalid key, does the error message tell you the key doesn't exist?

Archomeda

@Archomeda

if you request an authenticated endpoint, yes

it returns { "text": "invalid key" } or something along those lines

and it uses a HTTP 403 response

so i don't know why you would want a webhook for this

just handle the error properly

Ryan Mast

@nightlark

I guess they want to get sent a notification instead of polling

Jeppe Vennekilde

@vennekilde

Just as a general comment about what you should do, once you receive an "invalid key" error. I recommend not deleting it, but have it time out after a while. I remember previous api issues, that caused valid keys to return invalid key

But i agree, i don't really see the real need for a push notification when a key is invalid

Ryan Mast

@nightlark

It is a pretty boring notification. Notifications for events like character creation, level up, guild creation, member joining would be more interesting.

@ChieftainAlex

So that_shaman has successfully generated a replacement set of API compatible map tiles and is struggling to find somewhere good to host them

how about getting Anet to host his tiles on their api tile server ;<

ChieftainAlex

@ChieftainAlex

https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Widget:World_map_test + I've got a small scale working test version for the gw2 tiles on the wiki - same method as I did for gw1 way back

Silver Golden

@Silveress_Golden_gitlab

@ChieftainAlex how intensive is it to host them? Are they images or whatnot?

Silver Golden

@Silveress_Golden_gitlab

(would still be best if Anet hosted them but I aught to be able to provide the plan C option)

smiley

@codemasher

@Silveress_Golden_gitlab just to give you an idea: the 8 zoom levels for the gw1 tyria map (png) are ~600MB https://smiley.codes/maps/for/gw1/

small maps, like the battle isles or the pre-searing are like 30MB each

that_shaman

@thatshaman

They're rather large, PNG version is 2.88GB and JPG at high quality is 326.8 MB. Anyway, if you want to give these tiles a try consider this a pre-release: https://thatshaman.com/files/maps/beta.php

Do whatever you see fit with these files

Silver Golden

@Silveress_Golden_gitlab

2.88gb in total?

or each?

Silver Golden

@Silveress_Golden_gitlab

because if its just 3.1gb between png and jpg then I aught to be host it easially enough

and as regards traffic as long as its 19tb or less per month it aught to be fine

GoogleSheets Script - WvW Pip Reward Track
by Butters.2807 in API Development
Hi guys, first time poster on here. I was wondering if anyone knew anything about google sheets script?
I currently have a WvW Skirmish Ticket helper spreadsheet.
We don't have API endpoints for pulling pip progress so I currently enter the following into a spreadsheet:

Pip Chest Type (eg wood, bronze etc), selected from a drop down

Tier

Current Pips earned

Average pips per tick

Amount of Skirmish Tickets (currently I use the API to pull this directly so theres no need to enter)

@asuranec123_twitter

Is there any way to get Healing scaling on skills via the API? I only see raw healing in the returned json, but I feel like I must be missing something.
