Using Rolimons API, how can I get a Roblox Limited's Value / Rap?

What do I want to achieve?

I want to be able to get the catalog from ROBLOX’s inventory, and get all the data from it too including the ‘RAP’, ‘Value’, ‘Name’, and the Image of the item. I want all of this to be done using Rolimons API.

What have I tried?

  • I’ve tried getting the table from the API provided below, and typing out possible arguments for what I want. This doesn’t seem to work.

  • I’ve tried to use a module specifically made for Rolimons, but it doesn’t seem to work for me.

  • I’ve tried using this API, but I’m unsure of how to use it to get an items properties. I know this is how you get the data for the Limited, but I just don’t know how.

You can get the RAP of a limited from one of Roblox’s official API endpoints, specifically one which belongs to the economy directory.

https://economy.roblox.com/v1/assets/16652251/resale-data

This is a sample request to that API endpoint with the ID of “Red Tango” used. As we can see from the returned JSON data, the field “recentAveragePrice” can be fetched to ascertain the recent average price of the limited in question.

Question though, if I’m going through the entire collection of limiteds then won’t that much API requests cause an over exceeding amount of requests limit?

I wish there was a way to get the entire Collectables category, with all of the prices instead of individually requiring an API on every single item.

Sadly there is no such API that would give you the best resale price of every limited at once. And if you’re deciding to use Roblox’s APIs in-game then you would have to create a proxy API since you are not allowed to make HTTP requests directly to Roblox’s APIs using HttpService. And every Roblox API also has its limits on how many requests you can make in a given timeframe (to prevent DDoS attacks or overloads).

The “value” of a limited is only provided by external sites and not Roblox so you would want to get the public API for the site that provides such data (like Rolimons/RBXcity).

And I already replied to you in private on how to utilize the module I made which should give you ‘RAP’, ‘Value’, ‘Name’, ‘Acronym’ etc.

Hopefully, this clears confusion and solves your problem.
