2024 API Wishlist
-
We're excited to see what's in store for the websites and API in 2024! Here's a quick list of some things we'd love to see next year.
Game Log API - as MLB The Show does more with e-sports, adding a game log API could be beneficial. This would allow event hosts to build custom websites/dashboard promoting their events and would allow competitive players to do deeper dives into their own stats. Currently, the only way to get this information is by scraping - which isn't fun for anyone.
Captains API - some kind of API or addition to the API that shows which captains a card is eligible for.
How to Acquire Data - would be nice to have the "how to acquire" data as part of the player item API.
Content / Programs API
-
A user inventory API would be very helpful. A field for where the card originated (which program, pack, etc.), if they are going to reissue the Incognito cards, include the players name in the API.
These are all things Showzone has worked into their database, but it would be nice to have it come from an API.
-
Franchise data would be awesome as well. Would love to put together stat tracking and any sort of data display for a players career etc...
-
i would also like to be able to actually call the api from an application without CORS errors
-
@dubiouscentaur CORS error gotta be on your end man, I can call it on my computer no problem.
Are you attemping to call it directly from a frontend? Or a backend setup?
-
@sheyworth it's not i'm pretty sure - i can call the api directly just not via angular or any modern framework - the api returns no headers so i think that's the issue. It errors with a "fetch data" call even. What method are you using? thanks.
[Error] Fetch API cannot load https://mlb24.theshow.com/apis/listing.json?uuid=xxxxxxx due to access control checks.
