Shopping API Key Request

It would take 10 seconds to come into this thread and just say “we are not ready to give out API keys” or “here’s your API key” or some other simple response but they can’t even do that right now.

It doesn’t take 10 seconds to get up to date with stuff on the forum, discover the thread, read the thread, and then respond.

From the release notes:

@james

The Shopping API is for community members who have programming experience. The HTTP API is protected by API Keys. You need to request personalised API keys for both Testing and Live. Keys for Live will only be granted to community members that have demonstrated how the API will be used and that the usage will be shared with everyone in the community. Exposing this first API aims to help the community make new tools and systems around the game. But it is not to allow individual players or groups of players to have an unfair advantage over others.

1. Please PM myself and @blake for a key to the Testing universe.
2. Then PM us with details of how to review your app.
3. Make sure that there is sufficient data coming from Testing to fully test the app.
