Authenticated [Idea / request]
Reincarnated.1754:
At the moment only Guild Leaders (Owner / top Rank) can see Guild Authenticated API endpoints.
Some guilds I’m in (sure it would be the same for others) have members in the second to top rank that they would like to have access to the API results, and they don’t want to put them in the owners rank. (obvious reasons)
I just thought it would be a good idea if the top 2 ranks had access to the Authenticated API, or have a rank option to allow a rank to be given access.
Comments?

I was thinking about writting a request concerning this endpoint too. The whole thing is way to restrictive. In game most of the information is accessible to most members (the only difference is that they are read-only / not modifiable) so it makes no sense at all that in the API it’s only restricted to guild leaders.
Furthermore the endpoint should have a place to query guild functionnality access for a given appkey / accountname similar to what tokeninfo does. Currently it’s working on hit or miss (either the account has access or it does not) but we cannot tell that before hand without querying part of the endpoint and trying to figure out if the query failed or not.

There have been a number of threads about this specific issue already, I think the best approach discussed was a special permission added but I’m not sure of anything that happened beyond that.
Check the threads up until end of Dec for some of the discussions.

FWIW, that’s still the goal.
