API Access

[rasc42]

Hey there, I've found your repository on google, and I'm wondering how do you get the API key for LOCG? I've been searching online, but haven't found anything in google or the website =)

Thanks a lot

Bump. I have precisely the same question.

I too have yet to find an official method of getting a Client Id and API key for LOCG.

The only way I managed to find the 3 endpoints this uses, and a valid Client Id and API Key was by decompiling the app years ago before it's v2 make over.
They've since migrated to using flutter for the app and I've been unable to decipher these details again. The only other place I can think would be if its in the requests/responses of the website.

I does still work, however League of Comic Geeks, doesn't yet have a public way to get ClientId and ClientSecret and without those you will always raise an AuthenticationError

I had a look at the website requests and it doesn't seem to use the /api routes from what I can see, just regular routing that returns mostly html.

I guess the other option would be to try inspect the network traffic for the mobile app on Android since I suspect it would use the API directly. I might give it a go in the near future as I wanted to use Himon to download a bunch of cover art pragmatically. If I do and have success I'll post the results here

i wanted to use the api or some kind of scrapping tool to acces my reading stats. Using the gaphql api of Anilist i get my data and create a time plot of my stats. I wanted to do the same thing using my stats oh Hq read using LOCG

@RNGMonk @Buried-In-Code Any news on this? I am interested in using their api, but also don't know how to get a client id and secret

[Buried-In-Code]

@Ashkan-san No updates on it as far as I'm aware, I don't think they have any plans to make the api public
