Information

The proxy forwards our requests and takes over authentication.

For the authenticated endpoints we should keep in mind:

• use a separate Steam account (or maybe even this Xbox stuff with a subscription for all 4 games for that (cheaper?))
• generally limit our access to the auth endpoints to a minimum (only what is really needed)

1. even rate-limit our requests

• mimic in-game requests as close as possible

We will need a running instance of a Steam Client for each game. To circumvent limitations (as only holding one login to steam per account on a certain moment in time is needed) we use a proxy to forward our requests on behalf of a certain session.

Usage

Base URL: https://rlink.api.tools.uber.space/relic

You need to get an API_KEY for the proxy from the team members.

Then you can make calls to the proxy e.g. for endpoint /game/news/getNews call:

https://proxy.api.tools.uber.space/relic/game/news/getNews

You need to supply a header with the API_KEY e.g. API_KEY=...

All query parameters that you add to the request will be forwarded to the Relic Link API on your behalf.

Insomnia

Insomnia is a API design platform.

We have created some to use with their client.
