API endpoints that allow editing

Feature Upgrade · Api · Created by goncalojoaoc

API endpoints that allow editing of articles for example, would go a long way towards allowing stuff like mobile apps and deeper Discord integrations.

The Team's Response

I am not sure why this was submitted as a request since the API project is already in the roadmap for 1 year now. But yes, when we reach that point there will be full CRUD endpoints.

    Editing through API would allow to plug a language corrector software to the article and clean my world that became way too big...

    That would be very good to have API endpoints to _edit articles._ Most important for me is an ability to post new version of an article.   Project Oracle feels like a welcome addition, when it will be ready.

    Reading data from API is only the first step. Writing is coming at some point, but I guess Dimi has lots of other things on his plate right now. Just give it some time.

    I think most API related tools are being worked on by higher ranked guildmembers who know how to make APIs, and those projects may be on pause or still being worked on in some way.   This does sound neat, though I'm not sure how Dimitris or someone else would make this work.

    I was on my way to the WA discord to ask if this was possible. I want to edit statblocks via API
