Include Rarity, Won Yesterday, & Won Ever data in BadgeService:GetBadgeInfoAsync() or a new method

[v6FiRE]

As a Roblox developer, it is currently too hard to obtain Rarity, Won Yesterday, & Won Ever data from badges.
For a project I’m working on, displaying this information would greatly improve the badge collecting experience for players. I originally tried using HttpService, but Roblox blocks those requests.

If Roblox is able to address this issue, it would improve my development experience because I wouldn’t need to rely on an external server/proxy to obtain this information.

RoProxy.com - A free, rotating proxy for Roblox APIs

Been running this a few months without really promoting it, rprxy.xyz recently shut down so figured I’d post about it here. A few highlights: Significantly faster than rprxy was. Access to all apis and endpoints, including catalog api. No rate limits. Let me know if you have any suggestions or run into any issues. Disclaimer: I can’t recommend RoProxy (or any public proxy) for production applications. Albeit rare, downtime and slowdowns are inevitable, and you should never rely on third par…

If I’m not mistaken, they don’t want to rely on 3rd party services.

Yep! In my experience, free proxies for me have been slow and unreliable. I also don’t feel comfortable trusting them with anything server-side. Hacks happen.

I also take the personal stance that, if a proxy is needed for any implementation, it’s due to a platform deficiency (a lack of more badge info in this case).
