I haven't given personal feedback on it because what I know about the internal workings of API keys could be written in large capitals on the back of a postage stamp. I know what I want it to show but how to achieve it is beyond my skill set LOL.

tyvm.  No need to generate a new key; just having one out there is enough for us to look at the data!

Yup, will get that closed tomorrow as well.  Many thanks, Koda.

Koda, this buglet should now be closed - ie the tournament key should only work for /TournamentCombatReport/ and should now return an error message if applied to /CombatReport/ if you want to retest it.

Am now working on getting the outcome data to consistently return.

Not completely correct, as it's not currently generating the win/loss/casualties section correctly (so I've commented it out); but try this endpoint:  - /External/TournamentCombatReport/[Key] ... to see if that's closer to the spec.

Will get the win/loss/casualties working (including retrospectively for already issued reports) tomorrow.

Cheers,

Ah kk; that's the wrong endpoint - /CombatReport/[Key] shouldn't be returning any data for a tournament key, and I'll get that fixed.  

Will provide the tournament-specific endpoint URL in the next day or so; once I think it's working correctly.
