Overview

API Docs

To get started, go to the settings menu and enable the public API from the Extra tab. You can generate an API key if one is missing.

Once you have enabled the API and have the key, you can start sending requests by adding the query param apiKey=API_KEY. Replace API_KEY with your actual API key, and you should be good to go! Nearly all of the backend should be at your disposal.

Examples
