Immersive Immersive Technology Solutions	Posted - 2008.09.01 11:42:00 - [1] Originally by: "Empyrean Age 1.1 Patch Notes" Miscellaneous ... 3 new pages EVE API pages have been added to the Corporation folder. Member Security displays a list of all members within a given corporation, their roles (titles NOT included) and their titles. Titles displays a list of all titles that exist for a given Corporation. Member Security Log displays a list of role changes. Each change includes IDs and Names of the characters involved, location type of the roles, old roles and new roles. You must be a CEO or director to access this information. A new API page has been added which displays a container log for a Corporation. This new page will list and display the date, time, item, type, character, location and action taken. The list will also show the last one week of entries. A new API page has been added to show Character, Corporation and Alliance standings. Added a Corporation Shareholders field within the API. This will allow shareholder information to be exported by a CEO or director. The list will display two lists for character shareholders and corporation shareholders. ... Frankly, this is going to make API apps really really freaking awesome!
Eldstrom	Posted - 2008.09.01 12:19:00 - [2] I missed that in the change log, Thanks for highlighting it. Eld

Kazuo Ishiguro House of Marbles Zzz	Posted - 2008.09.01 20:39:00 - [4] Edited by: Kazuo Ishiguro on 01/09/2008 20:39:01 When are these pages expected to go active, and when can we see some documentation for them? Where should I look out for this information?
Johnathan Roark Caldari Quantum Industries RAZOR Alliance	Posted - 2008.09.02 03:28:00 - [5] those are some nice additions. Can't wait to see the documentation for them. I do have a suggestion for the api. I would like to see a share transaction api. It would also be nice if we could import standing list back into game. This would be nice for when a corporation joins an alliance, the alliance provides an export for the corp to import and have standings corrected.
leich Amarr Fritter Transport Co.	Posted - 2008.09.02 12:06:00 - [6] is there any chance of getting a list of dummy charicters setup so that they can have access to things like corp info im not a ceo with my corp so cannot test CEO related Api key type things without getting someone who is a CEO to test it for me.

Easist thing to do is create an alt capable of being a CEO straight out the box and create your own corp.

CCP Lingorm C C P	Posted - 2008.09.02 14:23:00 - [8] We are currently planning a Test API server that will use Singularity to fetch data from so that you can setup your own tests. No eta yet, but hopefully soon(tm). CCP Lingorm CCP Quality Assurance QA Engineering Team Leader Originally by: Lord Fitz Eve is to WoW as Wow is to an 8 player game of Unreal Tournament.

Eldstrom	Posted - 2008.09.02 15:37:00 - [9] after a couple of guesses I think I know the some URLs of the new pages. /corp/standings.xml.aspx /char/standings.xml.aspx Sample <?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?> <eveapi version="2"> <currentTime>2008-09-02 14:11:42</currentTime> <result> <corporationStandings> <standingsTo> <rowset name="characters" key="toID" columns="toID,toName,standing" /> <rowset name="corporations" key="toID" columns="toID,toName,standing"> <row toID="intger" toName="string" standing="signed intger" /> </rowset> <rowset name="alliances" key="toID" columns="toID,toName,standing" /> </standingsTo> <standingsFrom> <rowset name="agents" key="fromID" columns="fromID,fromName,standing"> <rowset name="NPCCorporations" key="fromID" columns="fromID,fromName,standing"> <rowset name="factions" key="fromID" columns="fromID,fromName,standing"> </rowset> </standingsFrom> </corporationStandings> </result> <cachedUntil>2008-09-02 17:11:44</cachedUntil> </eveapi> char version the <corporationStandings> are absent. my corp isnt in a alliance so no idea if the corp xml version holds the alliance standings too or if that has a page of it's own. /corp/shareholders.xml.aspx /corp/ContainerLog.xml.aspx /corp/membersecurity.xml.aspx I believe are the other urls. however not having CEO/director privs can't retrieve anything from this however it does give a permissions error. If anyone is willing to share a pruned down sample of the corp CEO/Directors privileged xml files i'd be grateful Eld

CCP Hypnotic	Posted - 2008.09.02 16:43:00 - [10] Here's a short and simple list of the new page names: Added ../corp/Shareholders.xml.aspx Added ../corp/MemberSecurity.xml.aspx Added ../corp/MemberSecurityLog.xml.aspx Added ../corp/Titles.xml.aspx Added ../corp/ContainerLog.xml.aspx Added ../corp/Standings.xml.aspx Added ../char/Standings.xml.aspx Also added to the API was: Added Clone Name and Skillpoints to character sheet. Added Role and Title lists to character sheet.

Eldstrom	Posted - 2008.09.02 17:17:00 - [11] Thanks Hypnotic
Rynlam	Posted - 2008.09.02 17:58:00 - [12] Yay! Thank you CCP API dev(s) :)
ALoneHobo II	Posted - 2008.09.02 18:24:00 - [13] So this new API data would allow people to quickly and easily setup EVE Bacon without manually inputting too much?

ALoneHobo II	Posted - 2008.09.02 18:58:00 - [19] Hey no worries man. I got bacon a few weeks ago BEFORE i was told i had to enter in all of the standings . . . immediately deleted it :P Just wanted to know if any kind of automatic entry using the new API info would be possible?
Cesar Malari Gunfleet Logistics	Posted - 2008.09.02 19:40:00 - [20] Edited by: Cesar Malari on 02/09/2008 19:44:06 Originally by: ALoneHobo II Hey no worries man. I got bacon a few weeks ago BEFORE i was told i had to enter in all of the standings . . . immediately deleted it :P Just wanted to know if any kind of automatic entry using the new API info would be possible? Assuming the new API thing shows your effective in-game standings, yes, you would be able to change BACON to get standings from that API instead of the standings file mechanism. Shouldn't be too complicated at all. Of course, why you'd want to spend time updating BACON to use the standings API when it can't get the data about who is entering local anymore is beyond me, but hey, you really seemed to want to know the answer.... The real interesting addition here is the container log -- if you pull this data often enough, you should be able to very closely monitor the use of corp loot hangers and identify people who take more from shared hangers than they contribute. I'm actually quite surprised to see this -- I hadn't really seen any call for it on the forums. Can't complain about new API goodies to play with though.
ALoneHobo II	Posted - 2008.09.02 20:41:00 - [21] I didnt realise the problem was with them disclosing info about the local channel :P

I'm actually quite surprised to see this -- I hadn't really seen any call for it on the forums. There's already at least one person for whom this feature will save several hours' work every week; people's participation in the ISGC racing league is verified via container logs. It saves 7 days' worth of logs, so you only need to check once per week to see everything. I expect it'll be cached for 24 hours after each query, like the assets/R&D data. Can we have this one work like the R&D jobs list so that if multiple requests are made, the cached data is re-sent each time? Zzz research towers Direrie NEW: Liekuri 20:1 low-end compression
Immersive Immersive Technology Solutions	Posted - 2008.09.03 01:00:00 - [23] The API is usually shut down for 24 hours following a patch, IIRC.

CCP Whisper	Posted - 2008.09.03 10:59:00 - [24] Originally by: Immersive Edited by: Immersive on 03/09/2008 01:31:39 The API is usually shut down for 24 hours following a patch, IIRC. Also, didn't I read somewhere that the documentation was getting an overhaul? Do we have an ETA for that? We have been working on overhauling the documentation, and I would like us to release it as a downloadable PDF. Have not got an ETA for that yet though, but I will be poking the people in charge of making our downloadable content to get it into the prescribed format once the core documents are complete and have gone through one last check.

Kazuo Ishiguro House of Marbles Zzz	Posted - 2008.09.03 13:19:00 - [25] Edited by: Kazuo Ishiguro on 03/09/2008 13:23:49 I'm looking forward to getting the container log xml working. For now, I'm just getting this: <eveapi version="2"> <currentTime>2008-09-03 13:15:40</currentTime> − <error> A general error has occured, please try again later. </error> <cachedUntil>2008-09-03 14:15:40</cachedUntil> </eveapi> The assets xml seems to be working, though, as well as all the other bits of the api that I've tried so far.

It should be formated like: http://api.eve-online.com/corp/ContainerLog.xml.aspx?userID=1234567&apiKey=<Full Access API Key>&characterID=<CEO/Director ID>

Kazuo Ishiguro House of Marbles Zzz	Posted - 2008.09.03 15:53:00 - [27] I'm using exactly that format (copied your sample and substituted my own details). My corp doesn't have any audit log containers currently in use, and never has afaik (I've checked via the assets API) - could this be causing the problem? Zzz research towers Direrie NEW: Liekuri 20:1 low-end compression

CCP Hypnotic	Posted - 2008.09.03 15:57:00 - [28] You should just be getting a response with empty record sets. Not an error. If you are getting this error right now could you please file a bug report? Thanks for helping me out.

Kazuo Ishiguro House of Marbles Zzz	Posted - 2008.09.03 16:50:00 - [30] Now that I've anchored a container on behalf of the corp and done some stuff with it, it works. So although it's a problem, it only seems to affect people who want to look up empty sets of records. Although this is a non-empty set of people, it's not something I'd lose too much sleep over tbh.

Mr Horizontal Gallente KIA Corp KIA Alliance	Posted - 2008.09.04 08:36:00 - [32] Is it me or did you also add the Corporation Name to the argName1 column of the wallet export? If so THANKS! This has made it fabulous to be able to figure out who's actually paid a dividend via shares. It would have been preferable to have the corporation name in the ownerName1 column and also the corporationID in the ownerID1 column, but I can still fudge it to use the /eve/CharacterID.xml.aspx which also seems to return the corporationID for any named entity (might want to change the description of that too).

CCP Elerhino Minmatar C C P	Posted - 2008.09.04 16:50:00 - [34] Regarding the Container Log problem: we've been investigating it and it turns out that the error is probably performance related. We've therefore taken it down temporarily to make sure there's no impact on TQ because of this. Hopefully we'll have a solution out in the next few days. CCP Elerhino CCP Software - API

Aurora Breeze Gallente Dime-A-Dozen Productions	Posted - 2008.09.05 00:33:00 - [35] I submitted a bug report for the standings API not showing alliance standings. I hope they get that fixed because that would be an awesome tool to have.
Kazuo Ishiguro House of Marbles Zzz	Posted - 2008.09.05 15:23:00 - [36] Does CCP have any plans to publish API usage statistics?

Aurora Breeze Gallente Dime-A-Dozen Productions	Posted - 2008.11.08 19:34:00 - [51] Just in case anybody missed them. Originally by: Patch notes for Quantum Rise EVE API and Static Data Dump * An incorrect columns listing in map/Jumps.xml.aspx within the EVE API has been fixed and will now display properly. * Intermittent errors that were generated when accessing container logs in the EVE API have been resolved. * The EVE API will now show Alliance standings in the standings.xml.aspx. * Certain IP addresses will no longer cause general errors on EVE API pages. * Data changes are now displayed correctly after caching time runs out in the EVE API. * Standings are now showing in the correct format in the EVE API for both characters and corporations. * Stacktrace errors caused by NPCs moving around a system have been eliminated. * dgmEffects.falloffAttributeID has been modified and will not return rows with a value of 0 in the Static Data Dump. * Icons have been added for ships that did not have them in the dataexport, previously blurred icons should be clearer. * The "Caldari Starbase Control Tower_LCO" has had its description corrected. * The static data dump now comes with a T-SQL creation script for foreign keys. It is located at the bottom of ebs_DATADUMP.sql . * Celestials in Black Rise have been added to the static data dump and placed in the correct tables.
