Diablo 3 Character/Profile API "Planned" For Later This Year.
Though we had a good idea that it was coming, Straton over on the World of Warcraft forums confirmed that the Diablo 3 API is planned to be ready later this year. Though he can not confirm everything the API will give us, he did say it will include information on hero profile data ! This comes as great news for people wanting to make fun web apps that would require an API from Blizzard! We will sure to have a few fun things made with this API for the community when the time comes.

Artwork from the Book of Cain
Jean-Baptise Monge, an artist used to help create the beautiful illustrations in the Book of Cain shared a couple of his sketches that he did for the book. There is some great concept art and a look behind the final products. You can check out blog here.
some people complain about WoW's, and we mod it...everyone's happy! for some reason blizzard did not give us this option for D3 and boy, oh, boy are there not a lot of fans for the new skill UI
For basic terms, its a way for us to get data from diablo 3, such as Character information/level/achievements Maybe what banners you have..ect Basically all the info that would be on a character armory, we would have access to in order to make our own web apps and websites...ect
I thought that's what that was. Was digging around and didn't want to be a straight up noob and ask.
Nah, not at all. Unless you program and deal with that stuff you have no reason to know what a API is. TBH A lot of the people that Know what it is, dont even know what it stands for, just not important =P
Im surprised you havnt brought it back under a difffernt name
We don't know if it was the name though :/ Never heard back from them why lol.
An emphatic amen to this.
Is it bad of me to want to hack admin and fix it?
Like the sketches, and hope to see more Diablo-based art from Jean-Baptise Monge. :Thumbs Up:
This is just my personal opinion, but I'd be surprised if Blizzard allowed any game addons for Diablo III. I have a feeling they'll just keep the API restricted to website stuff.
It just doesn't make any sense. Why allow it for WoW but not for D3?
