Collection of IDs returned from the Companion API

Community information collected about the FDev Companion API (Frontier API)

See Frontier API for community documentation of Frontier Development's Companion API (Frontier API), including a general walk-through of how to handle the oAuth2 flow.

For example implementations accessing this API please see:

• Python Example (not maintained as of April 4th, 2024)
• C# Example

It has come to light that whilst Frontier's Auth service will happily give you an Access and Refresh Token if you only ask for scope=capi (rather than scope=auth capi), the Access Token now does not contain some fields. This would be fine ... except the CAPI service objects if the auth scope is omitted:

HTTP Status 401 - Access Token expired: {"status":401,"message":"Authentication token incomplete","missing":["email","firstname","lastname"],"tag":"<elided>"}

Thus, for the time being, the auth scope is required even for developers that would otherwise not need to handle auth data.

IDs returned from the FDev Companion API

Notes

• These collections are incomplete - most notably some PowerPlay-specific items are missing from outfitting.csv.
• Player-specific items are deliberately omitted from outfitting.csv - i.e. those items returned from the API with category/slotname "bobblehead"/"BobbleNN", "decal"/"DecalN", "paintjob"/"PaintJob", "enginekit"/"EngineColour", "shipkit"/"ShipKit...", "weaponkit"/"WeaponColour"
• The values in the "name" fields in these files are as shown in-game in English. These are not the same in all cases as the text values returned by the Companion API or used over EDDN.

Additional Powerplay module IDs

I found a couple more Powerplay module IDs:

128671339 is the advanced plasma accelerator
128671344 is the pack hound/ missile launcher

Reserve Levels

I'm looking to contribute ReserveLevel to this collection. I'm honestly not 100% sure if it only applies to rings or not.

ReserveLevel: (Pristine/Major/Common/Low/Depleted) – if rings present

I'm happy to open a PR if this looks like a complete list. Otherwise, how else should I verify it's completion?

Low Temperature Diamond

According to maddavo post #2242 "Low Temperature Diamond" are displayed as "Low Temperature Diamonds".

Ok, found it. They are written with an "s" at the end.
