No Economy API Documentation

I know this probably belongs in engine bugs but it won’t let me post there.

I am in need of the “economy.roblox.com” Economy API for Roblox, however, when I go to https://economy.roblox.com/docs#!/v1 or https://api.roblox.com/docs?useConsolidatedPage=true there is no documentation/guide for this API.


Does anyone know why this is or where I can find information on the Economy Api?

Why do you need this information? What are you actually trying to accomplish?

It’s very useful, I am trying to use it for my group’s sales revenue.

The docs for the Economy API were removed on June 3rd. https://twitter.com/jmkdev/status/1400576897503870979

Hmm, I mean it still works because the few things about it I have tried do work, like /currency. So the API isnt gone just the documentation.

Doing some digging into that tweet, I found an archive here, Roblox-API-Tracker/Economy v1.json at 8eafb4f6027c8eff8627950425cb031523d91733 · Roblox-Trackers/Roblox-API-Tracker · GitHub, thank you for your contributions.

Can any Roblox staff comment on why they’re starting to hide more and more APIs? They’ve already hid countless APIs under the auth service and now they’re hiding the entire economy service? I don’t really understand the argument about it being to help with abuse as I’m sure anyone who’s smart enough to abuse these endpoints is also smart enough to use their browser’s developer tools or software like fiddler to monitor the requests made by studio or player to find these endpoints anyways. All it does is make it harder for developers with legitimate use cases to use them.

I couldn’t agree more to be honest man, I think this whole ordeal is stupid.

I am putting this active again because the economy page is still blank.
It only shows V1

GET
/v1/user/currency
Gets currency for the authenticated user.
