Hi all, with summer here I need to do at least something productive so I thought I’d actually try and code something rather than read another book and not actually put anything into practice. I am stuck between writing a wrapper in C# for the API or writing an actual dashboard type program for GW2. I was wondering if there are any limits on the amount of requests we can/should send in a certain period of time? Second, is there a tool/resource where I can see the list of used item ID’s or at least what numbers they range from? Third would anyone actually be interested in a C# wrapper for V2 of the API?

Thanks!

There is no limit per se, but the devs have asked that we try not to overwhelm the API servers with requests and cache our data whenever we can; and you can easily see all the item IDs just from the items endpoint
