Hi creators, this is a follow up on our original post here:

The page based pagination interface on the following endpoints would be deprecated by 6/14/2024. Any attempt to query these endpoints with a query parameter of pageNumber > 1 after that date would result in a 400 status code being returned.

The page favorites by bundleType endpoint on catalog-api:
https://catalog.roblox.com/v1/favorites/users/1264320158/favorites/1/bundles?pageNumber=2&itemsPerPage=6

The favorites list-json endpoint on roblox.com:
https://www.roblox.com/users/favorites/list-json?userid=1264320158&pageNumber=2&assetTypeId=8&itemsPerPage=6

As a replacement, pls use the cursor-based pagination interface like this:

https://www.roblox.com/users/favorites/list-json?userId=1264320158&cursor=2zwAAAAG6Tk09&assetTypeId=8&itemsPerPage=6

For more details please refer to the original post linked above.

We apologize for the small amount of time given for developers to change the way they are calling our public apis, this was because 3 months of lead time was already given in our earlier announcement.

Hi Developers,

As of June 24th, we plan to stop supporting place asset uploads on data.roblox.com/Data/Upload.ashx. After this day, we will start rejecting place traffic on this endpoint. It will still be usable for other assets.

We recommend transitioning to our Open Cloud Place Upload for all future place asset uploads. Detailed documentation can be found here: Usage Guide for Place Publishing | Documentation - Roblox Creator Hub

Thanks for your continuing support and let us know if you have any concerns.

Hello Creators,

We will be deprecating the old purchasing endpoint for Creator Store assets on 10/23. Since we launched real-world currency (USD) pricing for Creator Store assets, we have disabled Robux purchasing through this endpoint and have replaced this with a newer API. This does not affect any other purchasing flows for other products on our platform. This API was not seeing that much traffic and is being replaced with the newer one below.

Old API
POST https://apis.roblox.com/creator-marketplace-purchasing-service/v1/products/{productId}/purchase

New API
POST https://apis.roblox.com/marketplace-fiat-service/v1/product/purchase

Please let us know if you have any questions or concerns.

Hi Creators,

In the coming weeks, we will be updating the Presence API to make two changes to strengthen user privacy on our platform.

Currently, this API returns presence information for all users (both friends/non friends) and last online timestamps.

On November 15:

  • We’re setting new limits on the sharing of presence data for certain users. For users with presence limited to friends only, the presence API will only return their online status to authenticated friends.

  • Additionally, we will be deprecating the last online endpoint, a timestamp of when a user was last online. We will no longer support this endpoint.

Thank you.

Heads-up: The “last online” endpoint will not stop working immediately, but starting around 9AM PT, Friday, Nov 15, it will begin returning an arbitrary value.

This is a temporary measure to avoid disruptions, but please note that we plan to fully remove this endpoint in the future. We recommend reviewing your code to ensure this change won’t cause unexpected behavior (if you expected it to fail, instead of returning a fake value) and prepare for its eventual removal.
