I am trying to get a users avatar cost outside of roblox. I already have a roblox api key and all the stuff I would need to make the requests, but I dont know where to go to get the cost of avatar items other than in roblox.

there is no workaround other than scraping the roblox website which is not really scalable

#

i already looked through the api docs

#

dang alr

#

hmmm

#

nothing on it

zenith igloo
#

if there is no api that gets the cost of an avater item then there is no way to do it reasonably

#

is there an api that gets items based on asset id

#

you could use multiple apis, get key form user, use get for next call

#

lowk

#

i can just resort to that then

#

hmmmm

#

so here is what im thinking

#

i just make a massive list of all the roblox default free items for when u first join the game

#

and just make a loop which loops through all of that stuff

#

and checks if at least 4 items on the player are roblox defaults

#

or check if their avatar has 0 items on it

#

that should be good enough to see if someone is a bot

zenith igloo
#

the business logic idk about

#

that seems like an overeach for bots

#

the list could work if its reasonable

#

hang on let me show u sm

#

give me a second

#

this is the data i have access to rn

#

i can get more if i wanted lel

#

one of these says avatar_currently-wearing

#

right

#

it will js loop through that

#

max stuff u can be wearing at once if like 10
