Hey guys,

where do I find the clone state information in EVE's XML API?

I took a look at AccountStatus, APIKeyInfo, Clones, CharacterInfo and CharacterSheet but nothing changed there.
There only seems to be the legacy clone information available as my paid character is still having the old cloneType "Clone Grade Alpha", so that's not what I am looking for.

Or do I have to look at AccountStatus "paidUntil" for now to see if it is a paid or free account? I hope not as this would require my users to update/extend their access mask...

I need this information for my EVE-Skillplan website coming from XML as CREST/SSO is not an option for me as the skill training/skill management being done there is happening accross multiple accounts very often and SSO is limited to one account at a time.

I hope someone (from CCP) is able to enlighten me on this matter Blink

Best regards,

Legedric

SSO is not limited to "one accout at a time". You just can't log in EVE with multiple account at a time, but you just have to store the multiple access_token / refresh_token for each char and use the one you need.

I also doubt the XML API will be updated for clone states (I might be wrong either) with ESI coming.

Yes that's correct, I could rework my site to use a permanent refresh token for each character but then every user would still have to log into each character (like 30 or so) to get them listed instead of just adding API keys for 10 accounts or so.

In addition a transition over to CREST/SSO would result in a complete rework of my site's API part and (as another result) every existing user would have to readd their characters one by one afterwards. That's like starting from scratch.

I am not saying that this is impossible but that's nothing I will be able to provide in the near future for my users.

On a side note: I was not able to find anything related to skills/skill queues (or character implants even) in the SSO/CREST documentation (or CREST explorer from TQ), does an endpoint even exist in CREST already providing these kind of things?
I know there are scopes for it within SSO but I don't see them being documented in CREST!? Or do I have to wait for ESI on that as endpoints exist for it there (on http://esi.tech.ccp.is/latest/ at least)?

/Edit: Ok, after some digging I found out that I shouldn't start reworking with CREST but with ESI instead as this API will provide the correct information for me.

Well ok... sounds like I've got some work to do. Let's get onto this Cool

Thanks to Althalus Stenory for pointing me into the correct direction!
