I am playing with crest for the first time. I've been trying to avoid using the SDE, is there a way to get which character attribute is the primary and secondary attributes for a particular skill from Crest?

ie, if I want to see how many SP I am earning an hour, I would look up the skill:

https://crest-tq.eveonline.com/inventory/types/3411/

then get the character attributes from the XML API:

/char/CharacterSheet.xml.aspx

but the Crest Item endpoint returns a dogma reference for the primary and secondary attributes (respectively):

https://crest-tq.eveonline.com/dogma/attributes/180/
and
https://crest-tq.eveonline.com/dogma/attributes/181/

which only tells you the name of the attribute (primary or secondary attribute) not the value for that particular skill.

Is there a way to get this using crest?

Yes.

{
"attribute": {
"id_str": "180",
"href": "https://crest-tq.eveonline.com/dogma/attributes/180/",
"id": 180,
"name": "primaryAttribute"
},
"value": 165
},
{
"attribute": {
"id_str": "181",
"href": "https://crest-tq.eveonline.com/dogma/attributes/181/",
"id": 181,
"name": "secondaryAttribute"
},
"value": 166
}


If you look at the primary and secondary attribute dogma objects, notice the "value" at the bottom. In this case it is 165 and 166

You can use these dogma values to lookup what dogma attribute those are. Ex.

https://crest-tq.eveonline.com/dogma/attributes/165/ which would return:

{
"description": "The intelligence of a character.",
"unitID_str": "120",
"displayName": "Intelligence",
"name": "intelligence",
"iconID": 1380,
"unitID": 120,
"iconID_str": "1380",
"id": 165,
"id_str": "165",
"highIsGood": true,
"stackable": true,
"defaultValue": 0,
"published": true
}


Thus meaning value 165 relates the the Intelligence attribute.
