API Key Request
Hello, I would like an API key to populate my price guide software with new games as they are released. Please also point me towards your API guidelines as well, so I can ensure I am following the rules. Thank you.
Re: API Key Request
Hi there,
You've been granted an API key which you can access through this page.
if you ever go public with your project, please post in this thread notifying us of that.
we don't have a specific guidelines, you're limited to 1000 request per user (if you're a site, it's just 1000 request), so we recommend caching an batching your calls as much as possible to reduce call count.
please check the Announcement forum on regular bases to ensure compliance with any changes or updates.

Re: API Key Request
It's publicly accessible but no one uses it. http://www.vgspotlight.com.
Re: API Key Request
Also, 1000 request per what? Day? Hour? month?
Re: API Key Request
it's a monthly allowance.
ideally since you're hosting a site you'd cache the results so you won't have to request the same information twice, then rely on update api to keep your cache/mirror up to date, we do plan on providing a private key with a finite request limit with enough limit to mirror the entire site if needs be, but I haven't gotten around it it yet.
