I have searched up and down google, reading documentation, and not landing where I needed to.

What I am trying to do is make an XML call to read all of the assets from a character into something parseable in MATLAB. I can call eve-central just fine, worked out how to get the information I wanted, but when I search to poll eve for a characters assets, I am hitting a wall. There are a lot of sites that are dead or outdated in information.

If I have to learn JSON, and by extension program in a different language, I guess I will. But I am hoping someone could link a current, relevant link that says "This is the api xml call to get all the assets from key ID, verification code, character". At least enough so I could import it in. Once I have the call, then I will work on tearing it apart.

TL;DR: I want to know how many runs of an inputted BP I can run at present. Need an API call to get inventory.

Thank you in advance for any replies.

Hello,

For simulating different calls you can use the online service: http://games.chruker.dk/eve_online/test_eve_api.php

The XML documentation is located here: http://eveonline-third-party-documentation.readthedocs.io/en/latest/xmlapi/index.html

And the particular call you're looking for is: http://eveonline-third-party-documentation.readthedocs.io/en/latest/xmlapi/character/char_assetlist.html

Kind regards,

Thank you. I was finally able to make the call. Apparently, I don't need the {} in the call, which took a little while to figure out.

now, to rip that XML structure apart in MATLAB and figure it out.
