Use filters on the appID requests

Open Sighery opened this issue 8 years ago • 1 comments

I should switch to using filters so only the needed elements from the JSON are requested, resulting in an overall improvement of speed. Syntax example: http://store.steampowered.com/api/appdetails?filters=categories,platforms,genres&appids=115110

After some research this isn't possible. Steam won't accept the following arguments as parameters:

Some of which like the type, name and other arguments not listed there like is_free are needed for the program to work and won't appear. An usual request for the program would be something like: http://store.steampowered.com/api/appdetails?filters=type,name,is_free,categories,packages,packages_group,fullgame&appids=115110

So no luck here, but this could still be useful for the RaChart™ Enhancer so I'll keep it open.
