The Hypixel SkyBlock API is an external resource used to access a vast array of SkyBlock-related data beyond the confines of the game itself. As an integral component of the official Hypixel Public API, it provides automated access to various essential features, including detailed information on auctions, Bazaar data, and comprehensive player profiles encompassing statistics, skills, collections, and inventories.
Accessing the API[]
Accessing the Hypixel SkyBlock API is a straightforward process that grants users the ability to retrieve a wealth of SkyBlock-related information. To get started, the official API documentation can be accessed at https://api.hypixel.net/. This comprehensive resource provides detailed documentation on the available endpoints, parameters, and response formats, offering a solid foundation for utilizing the API effectively.
In order to access certain API endpoints and maximize the benefits of the API, acquiring an API key is recommended. An API key can be obtained by going to https://developer.hypixel.net/dashboard/ and clicking "Create API Key". By doing so, users can generate an API key that comes with a default rate limit of 300 requests per 5 minutes, but will expire in 72 hours (3 days). To obtain a permanent key, you must click "Create App" and select "Personal API Key", which will grant you a key that provides the same default rate limit, but will not expire on its own. This key serves as the gateway to unrestricted access to the API's vast array of features and data.
However, it's important to note that not all API endpoints require an API key. Several endpoints, such as those providing static or semi-static data like active auctions or Bazaar data, can be accessed without the need for an API key. This ensures that even users without an API key can still access valuable information and utilize it for their own purposes.
Converting Minecraft Username to UUID[]
Any parameter that represents a player or a SkyBlock profile should be filled with the UUID, not the player name. The official Mojang API can be used to convert a player name to the corresponding player UUID:

Parsing Inventory Data[]
Inventory data in the SkyBlock API is provided in the form of GZip compressed NBT (Named Binary Tag) data, which is then base64 encoded. To work with this inventory data, there are numerous libraries available for most programming languages that simplify the process of handling NBT data. These libraries provide convenient methods and functions specifically designed for parsing, decoding, and manipulating NBT data structures.
SkyBlock Resources Endpoints[]
The SkyBlock Resources Endpoints in the Hypixel Networth SkyBlock API can be accessed without requiring an API key. This means that users can retrieve valuable information about active auctions, Bazaar rates, and other static resources without the need for authentication using an API key.
