API V1 is not working properly.

I thought of creating an application using the Envato API . I referred the documentation here… http://marketplace.envato.com/api/documentation and started building.

On the front page of my application I am pulling latest files on any marketplace using this url as given on the documentation page… http://marketplace.envato.com/api/v1/random-new-files:activeden.json

The link was working properly 1 day before… but, today instead of giving the thumbnail of a file it is giving me something like this… http://marketplace.envato.com//item/color-drag-and-drop-wall-painter/86780 ... which is not at all a link for the thumbnail of an item.

I did not decide to build an application using the API earlier… but I started because I saw this line on the documentation page… all the numbered versions (e.g. v1, v2) can be considered stable and not subject to change.

The link is working properly only for audiojungle and not for the 6 others.

Edge is acting the same way. I think they are doing something with it right now

Yep. That may be true.

The features that are available in the API are not enough. I think there can be more features… like list of sales for every month separately… for charting and tax calculation purpose… etc. What do you think?

Oh the API can definitely be expanded beyond just that. I’d like to have some POST requests so one could actually buy a product, or possibly withdraw money. Other things like provide iimages in th search call. It just seems to be missing things that don’t make sense. Why provide the thumbnail in random files abut not in the search. Just seems odd to me.

Exactly.

I am having the same issue. I have listed 50 recent sales of a user on a page… now I cannot even get the link to the item sold, its thumbnail and number of times it sold.

So, I have tried a long search method to get the link and the number of sales. I am still not able to get the thumbnails.

By the way, I want suggestions on the application I am developing… http://marketplace.envato.com/forums/thread/envato-api-application-using-adobe-air/22802

I wonder when this API will get fixed though. Its pretty broken at the moment.

there were some changes in the las couple of hours, see link

so maybe is some side effect.
