Risingson	Posted - 2011.08.17 08:49:00 - [1] Intended? When i query http://apitest.eveonline.com/eve/CharacterInfo.xml.aspx with a character bound key (kid 428) that should only show public char info (am 16777216) i get the private info delivered for the char the key belongs to. // Eveeye.com
Risingson	Posted - 2011.08.17 10:51:00 - [2] Edited by: Risingson on 17/08/2011 10:53:51 Process of creating predefined keys in matters of userfriendlyness: If i send a user to create a specific key i want him to do nothing much but eg. choosing the char and clicking "create". The way it's done atm will drive away some users or making them mess up ;) to achieve that we would have to be able to additionally pass a name of key and expiry date. the representation should be reduced to minimum in case of predefinition. could be as easy as this ... https://supporttest.eveonline.com/api/Key/CreatePredefined/16777216/?name=Eveeye.com%20Character%20Authentification should send the user to this imo // Eveeye.com

When i query http://apitest.eveonline.com/eve/CharacterInfo.xml.aspx with a character bound key (kid 428) that should only show public char info (am 16777216) i get the private info delivered for the char the key belongs to. What info exactly? I can't reproduce that :( reproduction steps: create a key for public char info only and use it to get your character info. when i try: keyID 428 got access mask 16777216 for CharacterInfo public only. http://apitest.eveonline.com/eve/CharacterInfo.xml.aspx?keyID=428&vCode=xxxx&characterID=778488407 info it should not contain but does are accountBalance ,skillPoints, lastKnownLocation, etc // Eveeye.com

Risingson	Posted - 2011.08.22 19:34:00 - [6] Originally by: Desmont McCallock The "userID" (which is in fact the "accountID") has to be included in a non-restrictable API call, like the Characters or the APIKeyInfo call. If i get this right this would enable you to know Alts. Isn't it a good thing of the new api that users can decide what to share? I would vote for not showing a userID bound to a char anywhere unless the user allowed the key to see it. // Eveeye.com

While you are at that section set the expiry date to something that won't make the key expire at creation since all testers generated a key that instantly expired. proper userfriendly predefined landing page please take off your coder monocles // Eveeye.com
