Goozex API version 1.0 - May 12, 2008

All API are for accessing data on the Goozex system in read-only mode. The possibility to add data (add games in queues, write reviews, send PM, etc) may be added in a future release.

All Goozex API are REST-like commands sent over HTTP to the api.goozex.com server. The server responds with XML-formatted data. XML field representation is consistent (to the extent possible) across different API commands, to make it easier to understand each value returned.

Some API commands return results in Javascript (useful for integration on web pages) or redirect the response to a specific result page on Goozex.com (useful for web integration). 

Authentication is not required at the moment, although it may be added in a future release (either as basic HTTP authentication, or a more secure challenge-response mechanism).

Each application needs to specify a unique ID (provided by Goozex upon registration). Registration of the application is highly recommended: Goozex may update the API every once and while, and will send notifications only to all registered application owners. To register your application please refer to the About page. A sample registration ID can be used for testing purposes: "test". Please register your application before going to live production.
