For the time being, most of these docs will be copied from KB's The Backend document that he created right before he left. As these docs get more and more fleshed out this reference will be removed, but you can find the doc here for now.

Some Notes When Developing the API​

  • don't use hyphens in API URLs due to Android compatibility issues
  • try to return objects in consistent formats across APIs
    • sometimes a key is missing, or an object is returned as an ID when an object was expected
    • becomes an issue with parsing if data is returned inconsistently
  • keep in mind how cookies are sent/stored
  • keep in mind handling string encoding when params are passed to EPs
    • ex. in search EPs
