Hey Developers,

We will be removing the api proxy online status endpoint on January 31st, 2023:

Please switch over to the following replacement endpoints on presence api:

Thank you all for raising concerns about the incorrect last online time field in /v1/presence/users. Due to technical constraints, we have decided to deprecate the last online field in /v1/presence/users and introduce a supplementary endpoint which exposes last online date information (/v1/presence/last-online).

#49

Hello Developers,

We will be deprecating the following endpoint on March 8. It has been moved to a new endpoint.

Please let us know if there are any problems or regressions.

Old API:

http://www.roblox.com/build/universes

Optional parameters include:

  • activeOnly: Only returns active universes

  • startRow: Pagination value which specifies the group of universes to show

  • groupId: The group universes to use

New API:

Programmatic access can be found in the Develop API.

For the user’s universes, use:

https://develop.roblox.com/v1/user/universes

For a group’s universes, use:

https://develop.roblox.com/v1/groups/{groupId}/universes

The new APIs differ in the following ways:

  • User and group universes are split into different endpoints
  • The pagination scheme uses a cursor instead of rows
  • activeOnly filter option is removed

You can also get this information in the new Creator Dashboard!

Thank you.

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.
