myTBA API?

[Noah Richardson]

I'm working on a project and someone had asked if I could import teams from myTBA. Are there any plans for an API to do something like this?

[Zach Orr]

Hey Noah -

MyTBA data is exposed via an API, but the API is designed to only be consumed by official TBA clients (like our mobile apps and the website) since the API uses an OAuth token from Google for authentication. I'm not aware of anyone planning to expose this data via a public API, but this could be a project for a contributor.

Is the API documented? If not, what general section of the code should I be looking at?

[Zach Orr]

It's the clientapi https://github.com/the-blue-alliance/the-blue-alliance/blob/master/clientapi/clientapi_service.py

The issue isn't the API documentation though. Even if you know how to call it, you won't be able to access it without the proper authentication credentials.

Thanks for the quick reply. I figured it'd be behind an OAuth token, but it's good to know there is an API built.
