[SOLVED] Ranked war report

How are the number of attacks counted in the War Report response?

For example, are attacks on a faction outside of the war counted in the report as well?

Comparing this to the result I get from the Faction/Attacks endpoint (filtered by the war start and end date timestamp), I see a slight difference in value.

The report you see in torn only includes war targets. Unless you look at chain reports - those separate out war hits. Or you can use Debriefing https://www.torn.com/forums.php#/p=threads&f=67&t=16306621&b=0&a=0

that what i know so far, but when i fetch the faction attacks logs from api v2. i notice missing logs from response and sometimes extra hits. is there a way to check which attack logs linked to war reports? 

Api returns all faction attacks (100 for faction/attacks and 1000 for faction/attacksfull, you have to use from / to to get more). If you use faction/attacks, there is a war multi in the modifiers. 2 is war hit, 1 is non-war hit.

i know all of this, and that is what i'm using right now (faction/attacks endpoint) to compare logs with ranked war report. for calculating war hit, i'm filtering result by checking "is_ranked_war" property value from api response 

Check the war modifier instead / as well. I'm not sure is_ranked_war shows the correct value on stealth attacks (never used it personally).

Checked right now, the results are the same as my method. and yes, it shows the corrected value with stealth attack, here is a sample:
"result": "Attacked",
      "respect_gain": 8.79,
      "respect_loss": 2.2,
      "chain": 1088,
      "is_interrupted": false,
      "is_stealthed": true,
      "is_raid": false,
      "is_ranked_war": true,
      "modifiers": {
        "fair_fight": 2.53,
        "war": 2,
        "retaliation": 1,
        "group": 1,
        "overseas": 1,
        "chain": 1.51,
        "warlord": 1
      },

Ok, so what is different from the report? I get exactly the same data as the report in Debriefing.

The difference is that there are missing records from faction/attacks response compared to the number of hits in the war report.

p.s: I included the possibility of a timestamp issue, meaning that an attack initiated before the war began and ended after it was declared. However, that did not resolve the issue.

Have you tried the same approach with API v1? Also, have you tried adding +- 1 hour to the war start / end, and filtering the data afterwards? I believe the timestamps refer to attack start, not end, so keep that in mind as well.

It's working now! Thanks so much for this.
