External apps APIs

[aeroniemi]

No matter how much stuff POSCON makes themselves; there will always be people wanting to make statistics; maps; radar screens; websites with SSO login etc. What kind of APIs do you intend to make available to developers outside of POSCON, such as for intergrating into ProjectFly or similar? Will the SSO be accessable to external sites, similar to VATSIM? Will APIs for flight data be available in nearer real-time like IVAO?

This is a question for our server developer, but yes, the idea has always been to provide real-time (or close to real-time) APIs.

Hi!

i think after 2 years i can ask again:
is there an API provided at this time?

I'm interested in writing an online users script for my VA website and would love to have an API.

Thanks in advance!

@Julian Kruchy Yes there is an api and you can find the docs here. The update time is 30s second if I remeber correctly.

Hello guys,

There is any intention or study to implement the WEB UI through the planes using the APIs? Like CPDLC at Fenix A320, To request FL change, Clearance (Squawk code).

I remember vaguely that having been asked on the Discord server. If I am not mistaken the reply was that there are currently higher priorities before that will be worked on

Hey ; 

Yes there is plan a plan!
We have our own protocol for CPDLC currently and we are working on a easy way to use (SDK/ Web API)  tho while this is one of our first priority atm we are focusing on a few other projects needed for our commercial activities.
