ApiGateway (apis.roblox.com) doesn’t have an index or public docs. If for whatever reason you want an example page from it: https://apis.roblox.com/health

Will there eventually be support for messaging service? I feel like a lot of opportunities could arise by letting developers preform publish async calls through third party programs

#107

What libraries on node.js could I use to replicate this?

I have been trying to use different libraries but I haven’t been able to replicate what the .digest() function does

#108

Are we ever going to get official support for creating developer products, currently we have to use the client API to do this which does not work very well especially when it involves the usage of cookies.

While trying to create a key, I stumbled accross this error. I am using Aiohttp library for asynchronous code.

{'error': 'INVALID_ARGUMENT', 'message': 'Invalid content length, it should be positive.', 'errorDetails': [{'errorDetailType': 'DatastoreErrorInfo', 'datastoreErrorCode': 'InvalidContentLength'}]}

Full code below:

async def create_key(self, datastore: str, key: str, data, scope=None):
        params = {"datastoreName": datastore, 'entryKey': key}
        if scope:
            params["scope"] = scope
        
        encoded = str.encode(json.dumps(data))
        checksum = hashlib.md5(encoded).digest()
        checksum = base64.b64encode(checksum)
        #print(checksum,"md5")
        #print(type(checksum))
        headers = self._H()
        headers["content-md5"] = str(checksum)
        headers["Content-Type"] = 'application/octet-stream'
        print(len(encoded))
        headers['content-length'] = str(len(encoded))
        CS = aiohttp.ClientSession(headers=headers)
        req = await CS.post(self._objects_url, params=params, data=encoded)
        await CS.close()
        #print(req, "REAL REQ")
        req = await req.json() 
        print(req, "rrl")
        return req

I am unsure why this is happening.

#110

Why are you setting content length?

Using aiohttp, the API returns Invalid content length

#112

Content length usually gets set automatically though??

#113

Not with aiohttp tho, it apparently doesn’t set it

#114

I used crypto to change my information to md5 64-bit.

No API to remove particular version (similar to RemoveVersionAsync)?

#116

No OpenCloud does not support that endpoint.

#117

Hi,

Can you explain the use case for programmatically access developer products? Why that’s import to you?

#118

Hi, this can be useful for systems where instead of the user having to purchase multiple gamepasses and or products by repeatable hitting confirm you could program an API function to create(or find) a developer product that matches the total making it much more user friendly.

We do now have a way to create them using Develop Api but no way to find them (there is a undocumented method that returns the incorrect ID type [Action Needed] Sunsetting api.roblox.com - #8 by Julli4n). And with API keys becoming a thing using Open Cloud it would provide a much safer option to do these actions.

Now personally, I would use a Open Cloud version for my open source purchasing hub that allows users to purchase RBXM files using Robux (No real currency involved) within our cart system to make it so you no longer have to provide a cookie which could pose a security risk.

#119

Are there any plans to increase the rate limit for larger games? We’re hitting 429 (have about 16k CCUS) as we’re not able to transfer datastores we allow players to transfer their data over to the new game but we seem to be hitting the limit quite often, we even purchased another server but still not luck.

#120

Are OrderedDataStores going to be added? In particular, I (and I’m pretty sure that others as well) would like to see the GetSortedAsync added.

The API works great and I’ve been using it to manage some of our DataStores, but there is no workaround on how could we get a key (or keys) with the highest (or lowest) value.
ListEntries might sound like a valid workaround (even though very bad) for some people, who don’t store too many entries in their OrderedDataStore, but this isn’t viable for people who store many entries in their stores.

Thanks for sharing!

Are you talking about building a website that allow users to purchase passes and products with better UX?

Why you need to hit the API to create dev products instead of using the web UI or Studio?

It seems like you’d need ways to upload asset to user’s account after purchase, and an API to charge Robux, correct?

#122

Hi, have you tried to use multiple API keys? Although less convenient but you can get more quota this way.
