Developer changelog

Breaking changes ship on a new version path (/api/v2) — /api/v1 keeps its contract so community bots do not break when the game evolves. Additive fields may appear on existing endpoints; parse defensively.

v1.0.02026-08-24

Economics and War API v1 — public launch

  • Added: read-only public API at /api/v1 (mirrored at /api/public/v1 for external callers).
  • Added: API keys with the eaw_live_ prefix, scoped permissions, instant revocation.
  • Added: signed webhooks with unique event_id, retries and delivery logs.
  • Added: single-use Discord verification codes for community role bots.
  • Added: rate limiting — 60 req/min unauthenticated per IP, 120 req/min per key.
  • Note: /market, /eras and /global-conflicts return stable empty payloads until those systems ship.
Upcoming
  • OAuth authorization flow for registered applications (consent screen, no password sharing).
  • Market, era and global-conflict payloads once those systems ship — additive, non-breaking.
  • Higher configurable rate limits for approved community applications.
