Auction House API request

API Discussion
1

Hello fellow Azeroth traveler ! I’m her to ask for help to use Blizzard API to collect data !
I’m a student in Data Science and I want to create a Python application with machine learning to find the best moment to sell an item.
But first, I’m stuck in the part where I use my Client ID to collect the data (from the API to a SQlite Database). I’m a bit unexperienced in Pyton, only school experience, so I seek your help !
so my questions are:

  • How can I collect all the Auction House data for (if not all) EU region ?
  • Is there a time limit for Auction house archive ? like item sold last 6 month etc
    Thanks you !

  1. Make a request to the “realm index” endpoint using the EU namespace.
  2. Iterate over all the realms to get the realm slug
  3. Use each realm slug to fetch AH data using the “Auction House” API
  4. Parse and store the data as you wish

There is no historical data in any of the endpoints, the AH data is a snapshot of the current listed items within the hour. The data is refreshed on a fixed interval of 1 or 2 hours I think.
