Always good to sneak some extra stuff into some refactoring work :D
Thanks to web team. Could you slightly adjust the position of the graph so they're both in-line with each other? (useful to compare price and volume on the same date).
yeah we probably should have been more careful there. I am a bit reluctant to change it right now as the system has a lot of churn to recalculate and start raising guide prices which can only rise so much per day in comparison to the actual sales totals that can potentially rocket up.
Also anyone want to sell me a party hat? :P
Is the amount traded in the API at all? If not, can it be added?
I don’t think so but I haven’t checked. Reality of this update was OS had it for years but we hid it for RS until today. So did not really look at the API tbh
Any update to getting it added to the API?
at this time it is not something we have planned to do
A bit unfortunate considering everything else on an items page is on the API. Wouldn't this be better than me scrubbing the entire page just to pull the data? It will become quite expensive if people start doing that.
In an ideal world yep we would have added it when we added the trade totals for Old School years back. The issue is mainly that the GE web module cannot really support more API applications at this time without significant investment - it was already doing trade totals you just couldn’t see it. You can try to scrape the page but I expect you will get constantly hit by rate limiting doing that.
The main focus is Jagex Accounts and supporting the launcher. As nice as expanding the GE APIs would be it has a minimal benefit to most players.
That being said the feedback and suggestions are useful. We have to build the platform around the players.
