OAuth Update
Ekhetrima.9651:
I’ve been watching and waiting for an update on AuthO since Cliff mentioned it long, long ago.
I saw this link on reddit this morning which has some details on it so I thought I’d share it.
Highlights:
Larimore tells ProgrammableWeb that the OAuth2 implementation itself is basically complete. However, ArenaNet is currently developing APIs that take advantage of OAuth2. The first set of new authenticated APIs will use Guild Wars 2 Character and Account information.
“I hope to have an initial release by end of the first quarter of 2014, but there are still some unknowns about performance and scalability which might push this back a bit,” says Larimore.

Yeah…nothing different from when I prodded Stefan 2 months ago.
The world holds it breath.
JRoy.7180:
I’m eager for OAuth2 support! I’m assuming a validated user will be able to see their own bag/bank inventory information, known crafting recipes, etc.

We need this.
Now.
