The API reaches your loot this release. It now reads each player's wishlist and droptimizer freshness, and for the first time your own bot can write a couple of things back, not just read. If you build on your group's data, your Midnight Season 1 loot board is now part of what you can reach.
Loot in the API
Loot was the one big part of your group the API couldn't see. Now it can.
- Wishlists. Each player's wished-for items with their priorities and notes, so you can build your own loot sheet or a "who still wants this drop" view.
- Droptimizer freshness. When each character's sim was last uploaded, with a link straight to the full report, so you can spot whose loot data has gone stale before a raid night.
- The numbers stay at the source. The item-gain tables live in the linked Raidbots or QE Live report. The API tells you a sim exists and when it landed, then points you at the real thing.
Your bot can write back now
Until now the API only read. Two write routes open up, both matching exactly what an officer can already do in the app.
- Push a droptimizer from a link. Send a Raidbots or QE Live report link for a character on your roster, and it lands on their loot board. If the sim site is slow or down, nothing is saved and you just retry, so you never get a half-finished import.
- Set a raider's signup. Your bot can mark a roster member present, absent, tentative, or whatever the event allows, with an optional note, the same as editing their signup by hand.
Getting at it
- Per group, with API sharing on. A group admin turns it on in Settings, then API Access, and creates a key. Creating a key now asks what you're building and how to reach you, so we can give you a heads-up before anything changes.
- Everything's documented. A quick start lives on the developers page, and every route and response is in the API reference.
Around the app
- Find shared notes that fit your roster. The CD Library now filters by composition: dial in the specs you run and it surfaces the notes built for them, with a Flexible or Specific badge so a broad full-raid note isn't buried under narrow ones.
- A list view for the Library. Browse shared notes as a compact list, not just cards.
- Sharper help search. Searching the help center lands on the right page again.
