Getting the Item Generated Hash

Hi guys,

I was wondering how the user can get the Item Hash, that will transform into the JSON from the API.

In the example we have the hash: COGHsoAIEgcIBBXIGEoRHYQRdRUdnWyzFB2qXu51MA04kwNAAFAKYJMD

But it generates one per item, so, my question is, how can the user get this hash in-game?

They cannot, it is web specific.

So it will be used only for getting the items equipped on the user?
We won't be able to get the info on the stash?


That is correct.

Is there a particular reason why we cannot? I could see a need to be able to share the items you have in your stash with your friends or even other people.


There are several reasons and most of the involve privacy. There was a larger debate about this a few months ago, you can find it in the WoW Community Platform API forum.
