Ive used this before but I decided that sending requests to the roblox api using the in-built requests package would be easier for my use case. If this awesome package doesn’t suit you then try using the requests module. But make sure you try out this package for yourself though as the devs put lots of work into it.

The requests module is a blanket module that is used for sending API requests, and isn’t particular to Roblox. If you don’t want to use a library that makes it easier and you want to write general Python code that accesses the API, sure, go with that.
However, ro.py allows you to use the Roblox API without using actual ro.py components, and you can send requests without the extra hassle of ROBLOSECURITY cookies, X-CSRF, and other Roblox API quirks. As an example:
from ro_py.client import Client
import asyncio
client = Client("TOKENHERE")
requests = client.requests
async def main():
await requests.get() # GET request
await requests.post() # POST request
await requests.patch() # PATCH request
await requests.delete() # DELETE request
if __name__ == '__main__':
loop = asyncio.get_event_loop()
loop.run_until_complete(main())
All of these requests will be authenticated and X-CSRF will be handled, which means requests will just be made easier, even if you aren’t using ro.py-specific objects.
Consider this if you don’t feel like using ro.py. (I promise, it’s easier than raw requests!)

This is a great library which is the successor to @iranathan’s robloxapi with a bunch more features,
I’m glad you two teamed up to create this and hopefully you’ll be able to eventually expand to every endpoint!

Glad you like it! We do have plans to implement much more in the future. For some context: ro.py was originally created independently from robloxapi and we merged them later on.

I’ve been using this library to give my Discord bot some more features, and I’m very happy with the result. At first I worried it would take a lot of work to implement this into the code which I already have written, as I am using different cogs and have many commands, but it was extremely easy to implement and get to work with my pre-existing code. The “Getting Started” tutorial was informative and the examples in the documentation were very useful. This is an easy to use, overall great resource which will be useful for many different purposes.

I’m glad you found it helpful! We tried our best to keep ro.py fairly easy to understand while also supporting new features, and it’s nice to know that our work payed off.
I’m also working on a tutorial for specifically Discord-Roblox bots with ro.py, which will release soon. I assume you’re already past that point, given you already have a bot, but it might be a nice read when it does release.

Can you get the online or offline status of the player?

I’m still working on Presence - I’ll update you when I’m 100% done, as it should be in less than a week.

Hey! Great module you’ve made, and I’m in need of some help. I’m not that good with Python, so how would I join a game using this? I read the documentation, but couldn’t understand. Thanks in advance!
What exactly is your use case? Why do you need to join a game using ro.py?
That’s still pretty malicious…
Is it, though? All it’s supposed to do is join a game and sit there lol
Yes. Premium pay. I’m sure that’s against TOS

But don’t premium payouts only work for premium users? The client/bot I’m wanting to use doesn’t have Premium
What’s your use case? Why do you want to programmatically payout users?
Someone’s commission, they want a bot that can payout via Discord.
There is a module called robloxpy, it is written in their description that there is a feature to pay out via Code. But the classes are not there in the package, when I print there directories.
Can you please tell that how can i accept / decline Invite Requests from a group with your library?
Are you gonna add a proxy feature too?, since roblox doesn’t like ip’s firing api’s that much

We’re currently in the process of rewriting ro.py, but we do plan to make our ill-faded “URL utility” extend to the entire library, which will allow you to simply replace the roblox.com URL with any proxy of your choice and even change the way the URL is laid out.
