The IP is 66.147.244.107, but it's a shared IP (on bluehost). So if it was banned or something, it's possible there was some traffic from someone else on the same IP, although I don't really know. |

Hi Guys. I am using your api on my project. It seems that there is a problem on the xml in some of my queries. I hope someone from the dev team can help me on this.
Try this link to see the error: cdn.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/api.xml?title=~naruto It appears to happen on titles with well-established franchised. I hope this gets resolve soon. Thanks. Last edited by abarcenas on Sat Feb 02, 2013 12:17 pm; edited 1 time in total |

Here is the error:

I am also using Chrome.
For whatever reason, in that screenshot it is rendered as HTML. May have been a temporary glitch? |

It appears so. I no longer have any problems with it.
Say. Since I am here. Is it possible to include the companies in the api? At least the main studio of an Anime, like Production I.G, Madhouse etc? |

I would like to second that request. I would be great to be able to link companies with particular anime through the api. |

We're not going to include all companies in there. But the main studio, sure. Except... what is the main studio? I guess if I include companies credited with "Production" or "Animation Production" it should do the trick?

Hi there,
Firstly I'd like to say thanks for developing this API. I can appreciate how difficult it is to put together a way of accessing this much data safely. I'm currently developing an Android application which (hopefully) works in tandem with both the ANN API and the MAL API. As part of the UI, I'll be displaying thumbnails of each title alongside its name. However, I also intend to have prominent "featured" titles at the top of the home screen. The problem I'm having is that the image sizes available from the API is too small for what the "featured" titles require - for this to work as I imagine the images would need around 600-800px wide. The vast majority of images served up by the API at the moment are only about 200px wide, and while they're ok for listings, they would be terribly stretched up when taking the entire width of a phone's screen. I am mindful of bandwidth concerns on a site as big as this, and I will be performing sensible caching of both feeds and images. So is there a way of obtaining higher-resolution images via the ANN API or are there any plans to offer images at a higher resolution? If not, could you recommend any APIs or sites which I would be able to reliably obtain artwork from? (with their consent, and ideally minus the possibility of running into adult material) Cheers. |

It looks like today is your lucky day. Maybe I was in a coding mood, because before I knew it I found myself adding different picture sizes to the API. The <info type="Picture"> element can now have up to 3 <img> sub-elements, for small (up to 200x200), medium (up to 500x600), and large images. like this

Brilliant, thanks a lot for that. I take it the larger images will only be available for more recent titles?

Getting 404s for some images. Cross Game (id 10590) is one example:

It entirely depends on what people have uploaded, but yeah there's a higher likelyhood of recent series having larger images.

Hi,
I'm developing a project that uses the ANN API, so thanks for providing the service. What's great about the ANN encyclopedia is that it has much better information about individual releases than other sites. However, there's no way (that I can see at least) for me to access release information via the API - which is a big part of what this project would relate to. It'd be great if I could access release information using the same syntax as for a title. For example, api.xml?release=7287 would retrieve the XML for Jinki: Extend (GN 1) Would it be possible for this functionality to be added to the API? Let me know your thoughts, Cheers. |
