REST API

Game of Whales REST API allows "server to server" interaction between Game of Whales and your application. A call of every REST API method registers the appropriate event in Game of Whales.

Every request requires game argument. You can find it in Game Key field of Game settings page.

Versions

REST API supports versioning. It means that there may be several independent versions of the same API methods.

You are able to use the selected version or use the newest version every time.

In order to use a specific version, you need to define it in Accept-Version request header. For example,

Accept-Version: 1.0.0

If you want to use the newest version of REST API every time, you need to keep Accept-Version request header empty or not use it at all.

The REST API version in use is returned to api-version response header.

You can find out the newest version of REST API by using the following request:

GET https://api.gameofwhales.com:8488/ 

The response will look like this:

{
    "name": "Game of Whales service",
    "latestVersion": "2.0.0"
}
