[BUG] In game API using Summoner Name instead of Riot Id

[HeyPalmer]

Bug Description
The In game API does not currently support Riot Ids

Problem Description

Using one of the following only yields summoner name without the tagline as needed for the Riot Id

https://127.0.0.1:2999/liveclientdata/allgamedata
or
https://127.0.0.1:2999/liveclientdata/playerlist

Expected Result
/liveclientdata/playerlist should include Riot Id

Actual Result
Only Summoner Name is available from the result.

Repro Steps
Start a game. Go to /liveclientdata/playerlist. Find only a "summonerName" field but not one for "tagLine" or "riotId"

I bump this. activePlayer(Name) webservice has different summonerName than playerList

Hey there. Developer Relations doesn't own the in game API, but we've raised this and if we hear more information we'll provide an update.

The response changed to include the #tag. However, allPlayers was not updated yet unfortunately. Would be great if that can still be fixed. Although we can already split by # and tell with relative certainty that two players are equal.

https://127.0.0.1:2999/liveclientdata/playerlist
https://127.0.0.1:2999/liveclientdata/eventdata
and others needs tagline.

if same summonerName in a game, can't divide who is it

Hey there - We sent a follow-up on this to the team earlier this week, but unfortunately it's unlikely we'll hear any updates until after the new year. If something changes I'll let y'all know

Hi @tisbells, any updates on this ?

[tisbells]

Hi @tisbells, any updates on this ?

Unfortunately no updates yet - This work is still being prioritized. I will check in with them and provide more info as I get it

[MWstudio]

Hi @tisbells , this issue is forgotten from riot?

[tisbells]

Hey there - Apologies for the long wait on this. Progress was made this week and you should see some updates for this in PBE today and I believe live with patch 14.10 on May 14. If something changes, I'll provide another update.

[MWstudio]

@tisbells thank you for update. i checked some apis, but only /liveclientdata/eventdata api return summoner name without tagline

[tisbells]

@MWstudio Thanks for letting us know - Are you seeing that in PBE? And are the others returning the Riot ID as expected? Here is a list of the APIs that were supposed to be updated:

"/liveclientdata/activeplayername"
"/liveclientdata/playerlist"
"/liveclientdata/gamestats"
"/liveclientdata/playeritems"
"/liveclientdata/playerscores"
"/liveclientdata/playersummonerspells"
"/liveclientdata/playermainrunes"
"/liveclientdata/activeplayerrunes"
"/liveclientdata/allgamedata"
"/liveclientdata/eventdata" (I will let them know this one is still missing the Riot ID)
"/liveclientdata/activeplayer"
"/liveclientdata/activeplayerabilities"

You should see fields in the response for riotId, riotIdGameName, and riotIdTagLine

[MWstudio]

@tisbells yes i tested it in PBE Server. other APIs return riotId, riotIdGameName, and riotIdTagLine. but only "/liveclientdata/eventdata" is not updated

[tisbells]

Thanks for confirming, I've let them know!

could you also update the documentation at https://developer.riotgames.com/docs/lol#game-client-api_live-client-data-api? It still uses summonerName for the query parameters.
