Official XBOX Live API?

I have been searching for a while now on how to access user data from XBOX live.

Unfortunately, all I found was this which only allows 2 API calls per minute.

Is there an offcial XBOX API that I can access for user information ?

Solution

  • Hey as the owner and Developer of XboxAPI, I can tell you that the old v1 is discontinued. With regards to the latest version of the API (v2) this doesn't limit you to 2 requests per minute, its requests per hour depending on your subscription. Here are the hourly limits and costs per subscription.

    • Free (£0 per year - 120 API requests per hour)
    • Silver (£2 per month - 400 API requests per hour)
    • Gold (£5 per month - 1,000 API requests per hour)
    • Platinum (£10 per month - 3,000 API requests per hour)
    • Titanium (£40 per month - 20,000 API requests per hour)
    • Uber (£100 per month - 50,000 API requests per hour)

    XboxAPI runs off of an official API that powers the desktop and mobile applications. The reason that I created this API is because its not very user accessible.

    If you wish to get the official API yourself, then you need to be a member of ID@Xbox and this is for Indi Game Developers only who are already established, and wish to launch on the Xbox console.
