POST EDIT: I didn't check B&I forums; as WinterValor noted: Splent said he's on vacation right now but is coming back tomorrow, it'll be the first thing he fixes tomorrow so we should be good.

 

 

Leaving the rest of this post as-is because it does contain some info that might be useful to others - and crossing out the rest.

 

 

Heys,

 

As it stands, the API endpoints for Elimination aren't yet accessible. Since the competition hasn't started yet, I first want to say I don't want to rush anyone - I'm already grateful we have the API that we do.

 

I've attached some screenshots of endpoint requests below.

 

--> My question is essentially: will these API endpoints be available for this year's competition?

 

 

The alternative to Elim endpoints (and what we're using for Discord server verification) is the /user/{id}/competition endpoint, but iterating over e.g. all active users is going to take a looooot of API calls and I expect that the load from Elimination-specific endpoints is much preferred, since those inherently won't pull anything about people who aren't competing.

 

I'm open to suggestions to minimize load, in any case, and I'm not gonna start blasting these requests until I know they're actually necessary. Out of solidarity and respect for our infra gods, I would suggest others also don't start blasting yet.

 

 

As a side note, this new api-playground.torn.com is fucking awesome. Key saving is 10/10 functionality, the search works great, and all in all it improves on Swagger functionality in ways I couldn't have dreamed. Thanks a million for setting up up/making it available - it's an actual playground.
