Q:

Is it possible to see the gold and items waiting to be picked up at the Trading Post?

One of the things I do is compute my “net worth” by calculating values of items bought and sold and in my inventory. It would be nice to see the items and gold waiting to be picked up at the auction house (to combine it with my buys/sells orders to calculate amount of money that’s not on my character).

Thanks!

Sorry for bumping the old post, but is it possible to get a dev response/link to a previous response if this topic has been covered before? I wasn’t able to find an official response within the first 11 or so pages of forum.

I’ve been developing a discord bot for my guildies and I thought a nice feature would be having users (who have submitted appropriate API keys) be notified in discord if they have pending gold/items in the trading house window.

It’s not currently possible, but opened a tracking issue. There’s a few difficulties with the implementation that are probably going to make it not update correctly when you’re logged in (or might cause it to only update when you’re logged in, not entirely sure yet), so I’ve kind of been punting on it.

make it not update correctly when you’re logged in

Personally, this wouldn’t diminish the usefulness of this endpoint since it’s information that is literally impossible to get currently in game for people with over 100 items in their TP queue (unlike most endpoints that make obtainable data far more convenient).

Whichever limitation ends up being true, the edge cases who want this niche functionality are likely willing to work around it, either by doing calculations when logged in or not logged in as appropriate (being required to not be logged in would likely be useful to a larger range of people).

If double counting becomes an issue, implementations can choose to exclude the endpoint from their aggregate wealth assessments.

Awesome to have a reply! Thanks for taking a look into this for us.
