Scratch APIs

Idea partially from this.

We should try to find as many APIs under /site-api/ as possible - the wiki definitely doesn't document all of them!

Projects

General project data
http://scratch.mit.edu/api/v1/project/[project id]/?format=json

Comments on any given project project
http://scratch.mit.edu/site-api/comments/project/[project-id]/?page=[page number]

Studios
Comments on any given studio
http://scratch.mit.edu/site-api/comments/gallery/[studio id]/?page=[page number]

Projects in any given studio
http://scratch.mit.edu/site-api/projects/in/[studio id]/[page number]

Studios the logged-in user curates
http://scratch.mit.edu/site-api/galleries/

Users

User list
http://scratch.mit.edu/api/v1/user/?offset=[user number to start at]&limit=[number of people to show]&format=json

User activity
http://scratch.mit.edu/messages/ajax/user-activity/?user=[username]&max=[how many]

User profile comments
http://scratch.mit.edu/site-api/comments/user/[username]/

User's featured project
http://scratch.mit.edu/site-api/users/all/[username]/

Miscellaneous
Friend activity
http://scratch.mit.edu/messages/ajax/friends-activity/?max=[how many]

Your Backpack (must be logged in)
http://scratch.mit.edu/internalapi/backpack/[username - must be logged in]/get/

Sending Data
Following request - PUT
http://scratch.mit.edu/site-api/users/followers/[username to follow]/add/?usernames=[your username]

Follow/unfollow topic
http://scratch.mit.edu/discuss/subscription/topic/[topic id]/[add/remove]

Not many of these have been found by me - I'm just compiling everything I find.

I started a topic about this after this topic was posted. The two have since been merged. Below is my original topic post, if anyone cares to see it:
I'm going to try to compile as many of the /site-api/ urls as possible. If you don't know what that is, then this topic really won't help you. If you do know, hopefully it will.

Site-api Unofficial Reference


Receiving Data
Gotta get me some json…
And apparently ajax happens too.

Many of the below posts are from the topic I made. If a few posts below are confusing, that's probably why.

Please let me know if you know of any other site-api urls!

Why not include some ajax requests too?

http://scratch.mit.edu/messages/ajax/user-activity/?user=Superdoggy&max=1000 //user activity
http://scratch.mit.edu/messages/ajax/friends-activity/?max=1000 //friends activity

And here's some links from other similar / duplicate topics:

https://scratch.mit.edu/api/v1/project/47293584/?format=json //lots of info regarding project with specified URL
https://scratch.mit.edu/api/v1/user/?offset=0&limit=200&format=json //first X number of users, starting at user offset
https://scratch.mit.edu/site-api/projects/in/353712/1/ //nth page of projects in studio ID

http://scratch.mit.edu/internalapi/backpack/[username]/get/
The above returns the contents of a users backpack, however only the backpack of the logged in user can be accessed.

Perhaps the two topics should be merged.

Ooh, shiny! Didn't know about those. I'll add them when I get the chance.

Awesome! I'll add that as well.

@Everyone For now, I have to do math homework, but I'll update the topic soon.

A merge would probably be best. Is that okay with you?

I've already requested the mods to check it out and decide (since mine looks like yours, so a merge would have duplicate posts)

K. Srry I didn't see yours first. However, this one seems to be getting quite a bit more attention than yours did, so… yeah. Merges. Yay!

Edit: O_o Quoted before your edit.

Possibly just move all the replies from this over?

A merge seemed like the best solution - perhaps you can make sure that the first post has all the information from the other topic and then maybe later request that the redundant posts be removed.

I believe I've added all of the APIs in PullJosh's post.
