Please provide a basic overview of your proposed use of the API.
Any request lacking this information will be denied pending an appropriate response.
Please do not request keys as end users of another project, as those projects should request and properly implement their own keys. Key requests of this nature will be removed in the interest of more efficiently handling project requests. Assistance may be available upon contact for projects experiencing issues utilizing the current API.
I just realised my code pointing to the old version of the API has been returning nothing for a few months
Can I please get a key, it would be for non-commercial personal and friend use. Building a metadata scraper that I'm calling Vapour, haven't got any sort of Git going at this stage.
Looks like you guys are super conscious about abuse of the API too - I'd like to assure you that I put measures in place to try to limit the amount of calls to your API - once it has data it doesn't re-acquire the data for that game; and if the game is not found it doesn't try to check for that title more than once a week.
You've been granted an API key which you can access through this page.
if you ever go public with your project please let us know.
please check the Announcement forum on regular bases to ensure compliance with any changes or updates.
Since you're using the old api, you can try the legacy subdomain while you transition to the new api, note that we do plan on removing the legacy api all together as some stage, so you should only use it temporary, if required.
