I want to work on a libary that works with the newest version of snapchat.
I notice this repo is still using really old endpoints such as /bq/login.
I want to create a new libary to use with the newest version of snapchat, currently 9.2.1.0. This includes all the new endpoints and a way to avoid detection.
I have both the newest endpoints and the means needed to avoid detection.
Would you like to work with me on this? Please leave a message below with your skype ID.
I would like this. My account got locked rather quickly. (I'm not a dev here, but rather a user.) Could you just fork it and fix what you can, Snowlav? Or make a pull request.
Edit: Changing timeout from 5 to 90 (randomly selected) stopped my bot from getting blocked.
I am afraid not, we must make one ourselves

Is there a disclosure online on the new API like Gibsec's http://gibsonsec.org/snapchat/fulldisclosure/ on the old one?

I think there's a lot of people that would appreciate a new library. If you do host a page with documentation such as Gibsec, could you also post simple explanations on how Snapchat communicates with the API? I understand it's through POST requests and then parsing the reply, but is the actual snap data stored in the reply?
Using the new API is definitely worthwhile (my IP has been blocked a bunch of times too) but I'm not sure I have the time to work on it in the immediate future.
It'd be awesome if you decide to work on it @Snowlav -- you can either fork this library or make a lower-level API client library that SnapchatBot could use instead of pysnap.
Cheers, -A
I've just been doing some research and I believe it's possible to manipulate the chat on Snapchat with loq.
Maybe route the connections through Tor to avoid IP's getting blocked? I'll probably make a PR with that now that I think about it.
Evan it's not needed now that I have found a way to avoid detection :)

Yes and no. I want to build a new library but my coding skills aren't great. What I can do however is reverse engineer and that besides a lot of networking is how I found out some exploits and how to avoid detection.
I got in touch with some clever minds. And if any of you want to contribute to building a library along with me and those people, again, feel free to leave your skype and I will contact you :) On Feb 24, 2015 12:27 AM, "N07070" [email protected] wrote:

Even if you could even make a document with the new endpoints, that would be super helpful too!

To anyone interested, I don't think Snapchat sends chat messages through the API as you would've expected; the endpoint when interacting with the chat is "chat_typing". It looks something like this:
{
"timestamp" : timestamp,
"recipient_usernames" : [users],
"username" : "username",
"req_token": token,
"features_map" : data
}
There's no parameter for message content and thus renders chat communication impossible (from what I've seen).
@robert bq_typing is doing exactly what it says, it only indicates that you are typing, it's not holding mac / payload.

What does datacontain ?

Yeah I understand that, I'm just saying that chat_typing is the only endpoint I've seen so far when interacting with the chat. It's used to give a heads up notification that someone is typing (to the recipient) - when sending messages there is no interaction with the API.
Then you missed another endpoint completely :) /loq/conversation_post_messages is called twice after /bq/chat_typing and is triggered by the button, to post a message. (if you are talking about the latest version though, this might be different, I haven't checked the latest version yet)
But the endpoint /loq/conversation_post_messages should be working with this repo, and an updated user-agent.

Ahhh, I believe I am using the latest version. I haven't seen conversation_post_messages at all and I've thoroughly tested it.
I do also agree that this library needs a bit of updating (implementation of /loq/ and it shouldn't require pysnap, it should directly implement it (with the appropriate credits).
I could see them moving to XMPP or a similar protocol (either over raw TCP or over WebSockets) for chat as it's more efficient than the constant polling of an HTTP endpoint.
@krissrex, I'm just starting to implement this library, can you explain a bit what you mean by setting the timeout from 5-90 randomly? Is it per request? or overall, adding a delay?
@ObjectiveTruth I may be wrong however how I interpreted his edit is that he changed the default timeout to 90 for his bot, instead of 5, which allowed his bot to not get blocked.
I am interested in contributing to more API research and also the development of the updated library.
@Sh1eld, I just noticed its a constant and someone seems to have made the edit already by setting it by default to 15. Thanks for the quick reply!
@ObjectiveTruth You can either change the default for yourself or you can do bot.listen(timeout=90) (I think) as shown in the reflectorbot example.
The timeout just delays how often the bot runs a check (get snaps and monitor friend activity).
If you guys are interested in working on a library leave your Reddit or Skype usernames.
I'm not a python expert, but looking over the code, looks like there needs to be more entropy to the calls.
The instant fire back is a pretty dead give away of a bot, same with the sleep(timeout) regularity is pretty suspicious too.
My 2 cents..
@Rob-- @ObjectiveTruth We should add a more natural way of getting snaps. Maybe even try to simulate the function of the apps. I think more lag would be me stealth.
