Useful APIs. Many of these are undocumented and you probably didn't even know they existed. Thanks ostrichSized for the first link.

I left out some of badge and friend APIs because they only work in-game. These APIs should function out of game.

http://api.roblox.com/docs

Catalog API
http://wiki.roblox.com/index.php/Website_APIs

Image APIs

User Info APIs

Great list. I"m sure we'll find this quite useful later. :)

Here's the ROBLOX API in Lua form:

And the Catalog in ROBLOX Lua Form (JSON)

Someone with a wiki account should write a page on web APIs and put all of this useful information in it.

@Julien Psych, gordonrox24 tweeted this a few minutes ago:

@MerelyRBLX I've got a wiki writer with a pretty large list that may be public soon. Interested in how they will compare.

Hm, how would we get information from those APIs in-game then? Without having to use restricted stuff which will only work in edit mode D:

We cannot change the baseurl for InsertService J:<

@Quenty, lul, I did the catalog stuff too some weeks ago. But it was 100% slave-work for some hours, and I don't want to spend time making a bot auto-update it. And learn how to make one in the first case >_>

- As, what I said some posts above ^! In-game APIs plox!

I was going to make a gear notifier API, then I decided to many LMaD'ers would abuse it.

@Garnished,

Isn't there already a catalog notifier (not on roblox, some program, I don't know about...)?


- As, why do people scream at the Tech Forum? I just took a look D:

@Merely Is any of this accessible in game? If not, it should. A HTTP request for Roblox website only.

^ That method is made. But it's restricted to completely unrestricted script security contexts :P (Also known as level 7), which are external Lua files from the ROBLOX domain to ex. start a server, handle KO/WO data transfer, giving tix to a game owner ect.

game:HttpGet()
game:HttpPostAsync()
