Getting started
Welcome to the Skinport API! Our REST API lets you integrate Skinport, a trusted marketplace for virtual items, into your business or application: prices and stock of items, sales statistics, your account's transactions and balance, and a live feed of listings and sales.
Base Endpoint
All REST endpoints are relative to:
API Key
Never share your API key with anyone. Your API key grants full, unrestricted access to your Skinport account.
Authentication
Endpoints that access your account require HTTP Basic authentication with your API key. Send an Authorization header containing the word Basic, a space and the Base64-encoded string clientId
HTTP Methods
Following RESTful design patterns, the Skinport API uses these HTTP verbs:
Status Codes
| Code | Name | Description |
Errors
Every error response contains a list of errors, each with a machine readable id and a human readable message.
Rate Limits
Every request counts towards a global limit, some endpoints have an additional, lower limit.
