Creating API Client

How do I generate an API client?

The link in apiary points to https://beta.online-go.com/developer/, and I can’t find anything there. The Application Manager link points to an overview of games being played.

Edit:
After trying some things I found that querying online-go.com instead of beta.online-go.com works. Now I’m having a little different problem. When trying to get the access token I get “The requested URL /oauth2/access_token was not found on this server.” when I try the example from apiary. Did the API move somewhere else?

Use /oauth2/token instead.

Thanks Nathan. We used to be able to POST to /oath2/access_token, but now I get HTTP 405 response. Any tips or links to docs that match the current api?

EDIT: turns out I was missing the trailing slash, so the path should be /oauth2/token/

Now I get a 401 :slight_smile:

How did you end up generating an API client? I am pretty new to this. Any hints on how I should query https://online-go.com/ ? Thanks in advance!

Take a look at GitHub - flovo/ogs_api: python library to access the APIs of online-go.com

I think I found it. After I signed in on https://beta.online-go.com/developer, clicking on Application Manager transfered me to https://online-go.com/oauth2/applications/.

Hello,

I read the whole thread but still don’t understand how I’m supposed to get client_id and client_secret keys.

Could you guys please explain the process ?

Edit:

First, sign in to your OGS account
Then, visit the developer docs page and click on the OAuth2 Application Manager link.
If everything works as intended, you should be prompted with a form which allows you to register a new app, and fill in you client_id and client_secret keys.
