API things

    So I was thinking that I wouldn't mind starting to develop my own little queries on the API. Just ones to download my opponents team data etc.

    Is it hard? I have a fair amount of experience with c/c++ and VBA so am no stranger to coding.

    Anybody want to point me at a "How-to"?! :D

    I wouldn't say its hard, especially since you have coding experiences/ only looking to download opponents data...

    I know my biggest problems have come in the XML conversions and various small things like that.

    In regards to How Tos? the API documentation is the best place to start, and if you have any problems the developers lounge can also be used for questions...

    Sh!te.

    Between part time masters and work I just haven't had a chance to look at it. I have drifting desperately close to one click status.

    What does one need to do work with the API? What language we speaking?

    Excellent. Time to upgrade the tactics.
