So how the hell do i actually input api info? I click login and put in my api but it just says 'invalid user api key' even though its an access mask 256 and i even tried with an api with everything on it...

Is there some page where you can register and api or something? If so it don't see it

Also when you click on a character it opens to link to it twice, so that needs fixing.

Most of reported bugs are fixed.

- API auth bug - is fixed - now it accepts account`s 256 API key as well as character`s 256 API key.
- two tab(window) bug after clicking on 4-way suggestion is fixed
- language bug after API login is fixed, now system will remember your browser language and save it to your profile, language in profile ignores your browser language priority
- minor UI fixes
- We are increasing the number of filters avalible for PvP-active users up to 3

Here's an update on bugs and problems discovered during first phase of the beta test for http://eve-prism.com/, the new tool that we introduced to you some time ago

Bugs:
- The bug with the error that sometimes appeared on login (system not accepting APIs) has been fixed
- The bug with CEO not being able to view details on other corporations until assigned himself as his corp tactician has been fixed.

Thanks to w1ndstrike’s advice (we really appreciate his suggestions that were both interesting and helpful):

Start page:
- List on the upper right is automatically sorted by time (latest kills are shown at the bottom)
- Added map popping at mouseover showing the location of the event (in the same list on the upper right)
- You now can turn off news display on the main page in you profile
- Region of the event was added to the information displayed at mouseover

General:
Changes in abbreviations:

ECM=>EWR
DST=>DD/T3D
INC=>CEP
T3=>T3C

New features for the CEO-mode:
- Corporation’s activity is now sorted by systems
- Relations to other organizations based on the amount of joint episodes (most ~valuable allies~)
- The ability of the corporation to field doctrine ships (the amount of pilots that are able to fly certain doctrine based on the intel for the last 90 days)

Thanks for your feedback! We are reading all your answers and mails and will continue trying to make the system more comfortable for you to use.




0. Trying to localise reported problem whith the killlog.
1. We'll think about that
2. Yeah, we are working on it
3. Documentation IS a jump-in tutorial. The true capabilities of this tool is up to you to discover ;) But... ok. Here is the basic list of the tool's features:

1. Home page
Shows current PvP situation in EvE via kill feed on the left, showing place and time of the event as well as the parties involved. In your profile you can adjust filters, so the events of your interest (involving certain number of pilots in fleet/area/alliance etc) will pop up in the centre and then move to the right up column (it is possible to turn on sound for the notifications). You can get detailed information on the events stored in the right column by clicking on them. If no filters are active or you are not logged in pop-ups will be random and serve only decorative purposes. Graphs and numbers in the lower right corner show current server online, countdown for the next server shutdown, overall stats on PvP activity, number of new characters created and some other stuff (detailed explanation can be found in documentation). And finally in the centre of the screen there is a search field that can be used to search for pilots, corporations, alliances and systems.

2. Pilot page
Information about an individual pilot. Other than kill feed shows things such as sec status, areas of activity (high/low/null/wh), K\D ratio, mass balance, solo/group ratio, cyno indicators etc. In “Details” tab you (surprise!) can find more detailed information, such as regions that the pilot is active in, fittings he uses, his estimated monthly budget, time zone etc. There are also special marks, such as awoxing for example.

3. Corporation page
In many ways is similar to pilot page, with the addition of PvP ratings for it’s pilots. “Details” tab is currently under development and for now the only things you can find there are fittings uses by the corporation, command-suitability (see glossary) rating for it’s pilots, area of corporation actyvity by systems, alyes and enemys organisations.

4. Alliance page
Features the same things corporation page does, but lists corporations instead of characters. “Details” tab is non-existent for now (sadly)

5. System page
Shows what alliance controls the system, organizations that are most active there, route to nearest trade hub and standard activity graphs (gate jumps, NPC killed, ships and pods lost). In different tabs you can finds fleets last seen active in this system, their compositions and victims. “Structures” tab shows structure, deployable equipment and fighter kills.

6. Fitting tool
A tool for searching for specific fittings with wide variety of settings. Can search for both PvP and PvE fittings. Can sort fittings by the effectiveness of the pilots they are used by. You can choose areas/fleet size/cost/exclude or include specific modules etc for the fitting you are searching for.

7. Related
Yes we do have one ;) Features up to 3 sides, timelines, ship types, graphs, analysyses and other cool stuff. Can be accessed by clicking on a “summary” tab (right up) in any kill report on EvE-Prism (if you have trouble finding the kill on prism, you can put a link to zkb into the search field on the home page)

8. Fleet optimizer
This feature is currently accessible only to corporation tacticians (this role can be assigned by the user that entered the CEO API for your corporation. It can be assigned to any member of your corporation).
This tool can help you get your fleet ready for a fight/roam. Serves the purpose of optimizing your fleet composition based on previous PvP-activity of it’s members. Gives FC data on what and how well can members of his fleet pilot, so that he doesn’t have to waste his time asking a 100 times “who can do a ceptor” etc.
Warning: some errors may occur due to use of skill injectors/extractors

9. Operative report
This page shows most PvP active systems in EvE - low and null entrances. Also shows prediction for +1 and +2 hours for low sec ones, top-100 most active systems for the last 90 days with their current activity and 10 fleets last seen active. There is a tool for setting a destination that can be adjusted for your liking (activity, sec status and such).

This is a pretty cool tool but logging in with the API key is cumbersome, can you add SSO too?

Removed a post for the above reason.
