Backend API Call to get all games associated with a user? #2217
-
|
Greetings, I'm creating a backend dashboard for go students with OGS accounts and want to be able to pull a list of their games so I can attach notes + reviews + videos associated with those games, etc. I've perused the resources on https://ogs.docs.apiary.io/#reference/user-specific-resources/ but I can't seem to find a way to get all of the games associated with a particular user. I've gotten as far as calling http://online-go.com/api/v1/players/ to get the "related" "games" response which gives me "/api/v1/players__{playerID}__/games" but don't know what to do with that. Would someone familiar with this kind of thing advise? Thanking you in advance. |

Sounds like a great project! That is indeed the endpoint, simply do a web request to it and you'll get a JSON blob back. You'll probably want to apply the same filters as we apply in the interface to filter out any uploaded SGFS and whatnot, that looks like: Replacing PLAYERID with whatever user id you want of course. You can view that url in the browser and it'll give you a pretty interface with the JSON dump, when you do a request from a non web browser (your application for instance), it'll come back as just plain JSON so you can parse it easily. |

Thank you so much - I just didn't know what protocol was being used to call the api (http) :). This worked. Really appreciate your quick response and enthusiasm. :) |

Also FYI you don't need to follow any related links or anything, those are just informational. Doing a request for the above URL is sufficient, and most reads like you're probably going to do don't need any authentication. |
