Looks like all the posts about API development have been dormant for months. I seem to recall reading months back that the APIs were being reworked. Any word on v2 progress or potential release/testing availability?

So, no updates in 3 months then.

Stefan Larimore.6872:

Hi all. Yes, we are still working on the v2 APIs. It has been a little bit slow going for me due to having been pulled aside for higher priority items over the last few months. But progress is being made.

Thanks for the update, Stefan.

Is there any chance you’d let us help speed things up? I’ve been working with the API almost every day over the last few months, and I’m sure there are others like me. We know exactly what we want, and we’d love to implement it ourselves if given the opportunity. I’m thinking you could make parts of your SDK publicly available, just enough for us to try and reduce the backlog for v2 and submit the results as patches.

Helari.2416:

Or maybe you can give us a slight preview of your plans about the API’s evolution so that all the developers we are can begin to think about new tools and functionnalities for the existing tools ?

That would be very nice

What about a GitHub repo so that we can discuss over there and eventually send pull requests?

Shhh, i think there’s something coming our way: https://api.guildwars2.com/v2

A dev gave some insights in reddit: http://www.reddit.com/r/Guildwars2/comments/28bhht/api_v2_release_imminent/

v2 API doesn’t add much over v1, mostly cleans things up & adds TP listings and exchange rates. We’ll see about building out more later.

Tivac

They’re all built, though /v2/characters and /v2/accounts aren’t going to be ready for a while.
Planning on enabling the rest “soon”, once the /v1 APIs going against the new backend have stabilized.

Tivac

You mean a way to authenticate and then view just your listings? Don’t know, we would need to solve a few other issues first.

About the worlds and world_names APIs that are not working properly:

Tivac

The new API interface uses the same backing servers for the data source, so no updates on that sorry. I’ll bug the programmer who owns that and see if he has any time to investigate.

StevenL.3761:

Well, I already implemented the details that we know about by reading over the /v2 txt document. But what about response objects? When will we know how responses are serialized?

Skimmed thru the linked reddit page. Saw that someone has already asked about the idea of querying one’s buy/sell orders. It may be an unknown for now but here’s to hoping that the v2 API will expand on it. I guess for the time being, we’ll have to settle for price queries. I await the day when I can load up an app and check on my buy/sell offers w/o having to jump in-game.

StevenL.3761:

Neither /v2/commerce/exchange nor /v2/commerce/listings recognize HTTP POST requests. This is a clear indicator that these will be read-only APIs. So nothing that you couldn’t already do using unofficial APIs.
