All Roblox APIs no longer have the /docs/ page

Hi there,

As of recently none of the web APIs have documentation pages, originally it showed you what APIs there are under each subdomain and a way to test them, an example below:




Today when viewing them it shows either a 404 page or a JSON error saying {'errors':[{'code':9009,'message':'No Service Found'}]}


The current APIs that have no docs are:

You can append an additional / until they fix it

For me it shows 404 still?

This has been reported here but unfortunately no word of a fix yet. Above looks like the workaround, @HealthyKarl might be worth dropping this in the thread below as Roblox has acknowledged it.

Try Swagger UI.

It seems like a double slash makes it works… Very strange

If it doesn’t work, I am not sure… does your browser convert the // back to / ?

SUBDOMAIN.ROBLOX.COM then you add the //

It was one of the first things I tried. It was a guess.

Basically, let’s just say that I believe and thought about how servers redirect, look things up and read your URL. There must have been a misconfiguration somewhere, and I think I just pinpointed it.

The documentation has moved here: https://create.roblox.com/docs/cloud/legacy

The new pages list all API documentation that was previously available via direct docs URLs on the respective API sites, to the best of our knowledge. Please let us know if anything is missing that was available before.

You can find all these APIs in the left navigation. It also calls out on the overview page certain APIs that you can hit with legacy OAuth 2.0 / API key scopes instead of with a cookie.


:warning: Please rely on this new documentation page instead of the old documentation URLs since we cannot offer guarantees that the old URLs will stay available, including any variation (like the double slash workaround), for involved technical reasons.


:mega: While we do our best to alert you of breaking changes, please note that these legacy APIs may change without notice and break your application and do not have the stability guarantees of the newer Open Cloud APIs.

We especially discourage using the endpoints that only take cookie authentication as much as feasible for your use case, as cookies do not offer fine-grained authorization via scopes.


:bulb: We are looking into improvements to the new documentation pages, like having a way to download the openAPI JSON for each surface, and we are investigating what it would take to support “try out”-esque features on this page.


You can let us know here or by filing a new bug report or feature request if you have any feedback, questions or concerns. We’ll do our best to take that into account for any changes we plan to the documentation.

Is there any reason why they’ve changed?

This does not seem to of fixed this issue?

Was the double-slash intentionally thrown in to tell developers there’s nothing here?

It’s moved fully to the docs, Swagger is no longer being used
