REST API

Server Address is passed to the Web applications in "api_server" parameter.
method can't be passed as an attachment in photo upload methods, but must be passed as query parameter only.
While it is recommended to use "api_server" parameter, you can use the default address for non session requests : https://api.rbkgames.com/.

Common request parameters

NameRequiredTypeDescription
application_keyYIntegerThe application identifier associated with the calling application. If you specify the API ID in your client, you don't need to pass it with every call.
sigYStringAn MD5 hash of the current request and your secret key, as described in the Authentication and Authorization section.
formatNStringFormat of method response, can be JSON ot XML. If not specified, JSON is used.
session_key-StringThe session key of the logged in user. Session key can be required, optional or prohibited depending on method.

Response format

Response can be obtained in one of the two following formats: XML or JSON, as was mentioned above. If not specified, JSON is used.

There is a certain subtlety that one should keep in mind when calling methods that return lists of data. If the list returned by the method is empty then:

  • XML response format: the tag will not contain any elements within itself.
  • JSON response format: will return null.

Error handling

If server fails to handle request, HTTP header invocation-error contains error code. In addition response contains details in XML or JSON format.
