Note to other forum users, no, this is not “hacking”, “cheating”, “illegal”, and doesn’t infringe on copyright

So for the past month I’ve been working with a friend to look into the Halo 4 Stats website on http://app.halowaypoint.com/. And finally, after a lot of work, we’re ready to release the Source Code, how to access and use the internal API and a small example website to show off basics of what can be done.

Developers

  • We have a wiki of information on how to Authenticate Endpoints, and send requests - We have examples on how to use the API.
  • .NET Wrapper on GitHub.

Users

  • We have a couple of examples that are ready for users to use
  • AuntieDot
  • LeafApp

What other kind of statistics can you get?

Just a reminder but please don’t post personal information on the boards. I’ve removed your email for you so you don’t get an influx of spam. :slight_smile:

That was my email that I give out when I don’t want to give out my private one, but thanks anyway.

All the endpoints exposed by the API (including example responses) can be found here: http://api.auntiedot.net/index.php?title=Reference/Endpoints

This looks really good, thanks for sharing.

What are you hoping to achieve with this? To help fellow website developers develop a halo stats website, or to get people using one you’re developing?

I tried looking at the endpoints page but don’t really understand any of it as I’m not a webpage developer, but I like the example you linked to, it looks smart.

Get people developing, our site is just an example of what can be done.

I was considering starting the very process you (and your friend) performed in creating an “API” or a list of services.

My current line of work is in software design, so come Halo 4 release… well lets just say half the fun is being able to play with the data yourself!

I think I may try to setup a process to fetch all my matches to a local database… and go from there.

PM me if you would like some help, want some feedback, a proofreader, or to just what I end up doing with the power of mysql, python, gnuplot, etc. (This ought to be fun!)

Just wanted to say I am sincerely thankful someone got around to listing out these web services (so far) and providing a brief overview of the authentication token process.

Again, message me in game, PM me, etc if you would like another helper.

Cheers!
