Inara updates, bug reports, requests
When you try to link your accounts, you may receive the http error 400 about expired tokens. It's an issue on Frontier's end that I cannot solve on Inara. Fortunately, the solution is simple - please give it a few days and it will start to work later (probably when the access token on their cAPI server expires). If the error 400 appeared later and it worked before, try to reauthenticate as said in the error message (may be just a regular reauth forced by Frontier). Alternatively, you can try to use the workaround below. If even that won't work, it's the problem described above.
Please vote for the issue on the official bug tracker: https://issues.frontierstore.net/issue-detail/21258
Possible workaround: Try to connect the account while you are in the game. It may work.
Game data and imports not available for console commanders and PC players with Legacy game version
Inara supports only the Live game version (so PC Horizons 4.0 and Odyssey) since game update 14, thus all the game data on the site and the commander data imports work only for those game versions.

Geordie_CarlHi all, I'm trying to link my steam and inara together and I've gotta wait as I've tried to many times.
I had misspelt my steam name and hadn't realised till after a few attempts
Cheers
Any idea how long my wait will be
There is nothing I can do, it's a Steam/Frontier security measure. But it seems you have solved it already.
Niam LeesonHi. I'm sure someone already asked this, but can i do anything to update the Signature image? It refuses to show my ship and it's name.
Please set some of your ship as main. You can click the small "M" button on the fleet listing or you can set it in the ship edit.
Arne S. SaknussemmHi Artie.
My Flight Log is not reporting the name of my Sidewinder... she’s the only ship that has this kind of “problem” for me. Is it fixable?
Thx.
Maybe, I will check your journal at that date. It's sometimes difficult to get the exact ship flown on partial journal updates and similar cases. Thanks for the report.
(And I will adjust that manually in your log later.)
AlekseiJust wanted to mention that prices on various things, mostly deep core mined commodity prices aren't accurate.
i.e.
Void Opals at Freeport best sell says 1.3m/unit and updated minutes ago.
The price there for example is about 630k / unit
That's not a thing I can affect, unfortunately. As the prices are auto-updated based on players data, there was such price for at least one player at the given timestamp, so correct. As the prices of some commodities are quite volatile now, it's entirely possible that the price was changed shortly after that (for example when such player sold a tons of the particular commodity at that moment, which affected the prices after being reported).

I checked out Rochon Ring in Nastrond just for curiosity there is no price there for void opals. At EDDB and EDSM the prices are correct. Not here though...
Edit: needed to fix the qouting

Hi Artie
Can you clarify the Updated Date on Prices?
Is it the time of Data-Transfer to Inara or the time when the cmdr docked and opened the market ingame?
Thanks

John Kozak Signature images are cached for fairly long time, try force-refreshing browser (Ctrl+F5 in Chrome).
Thanks for the suggestion, tried it but no change. I did however had to set a main ship, maybe that will resolve it with more time.
ArtiePlease set some of your ship as main. You can click the small "M" button on the fleet listing or you can set it in the ship edit.
I did that, now it shows the ship name on the profile page, but not in the signature. Will wait, maybe it just needs time to update. Thanks!

I am not sure what you have seen, but there was no price for Void opals in Rochon ring in Nastrond received recently via EDDN nor is displayed in EDDB or EDSM (which are consuming exactly same data from EDDN).

The date is the date as in the timestamp in the EDDN message. As the market data files are created at the time the commander opens the market and then such data are usually immediately send to EDDN (at that moment the timestamp should be generated), the date should correspond to the exact time the commander opened the market (let's say with a tolerance of a few seconds).

Now it is correct. I should've done a screenshot, I suppose there is some 'lag'/'latency'.

Yes, please do if do you will notice something like that, because as far as I see in the logs, there wasn't possible to sell Void opals in this station for a long time (and thus wasn't also present in the database), so it's hard to figure out what may be going on (from other reason than it was just an user mistake). But as it is going in the development - odd stuff may happen.

Aunty SledgeNekito StriderSo i recently joined Elite on Xbox, and ive been having a real gas with inara, but as i just made a player faction I noticed that even if i sync my data, despite my confirming its existence in the system, the factions of the system are not updating. am i doing something wrong?
Xbox players need to rely on the Frontier cAPI which doesn't load data in real time, and I'm not even sure if it updates system data (perhaps someone can confirm that?). PC players run ED:MC in the background (I'm sure there are other tools) to update Inara's system data in real time which is really useful for those playing the BGS.
I've just flown to your system and you are now showing on Inara, however you'll need a longer term solution of getting your data updated on a regular basis. Do you have "Import Frontier Data" set to Auto-Update?
Indeed I do have auto update enabled and frequently do manual inputs. Thanks for putting us on the map! Maybe if we manage to enlist a pc player into the squad, or potentially ask our allies pc player to pay a visit every so often. Again thanks for the assist!

NorthpinIs is possible to select multiple states in Systems / Nearest?
I was coming on to request this feature myself.

It's possible that everyone stopped mining.
It's possible everyone turned off ED:MC to create 'honey holes'.
Odds are something is going wrong under the covers though.

Not at the moment, but it's something I want to improve with the general search overhaul soon(ish).
FENWEArtie - Is it possible that EDDN had a bug after the last release? I know that isn't your baby. It's odd the staleness of data. The day of the first release everyone was going to stations to check prices and selling, the day after the second release - stale data.

It doesn't seem that the number of data received over EDDN is lower than usually or stale. Although there is possible that some people may have temporarily disabled reporting to keep "honey pots" to themselves, I think it's just an effect of the recent changes and the significant price drop of the most profitable commodities on the most frequent stations which now aren't listed in "best sell" listings and thus it appear to be deader than before.

I suspect this is down to the recent mining market changes in the last patch. As expected, FDev sprinkled in their special "stupid sauce" when coming up with the change.
Now, if you have more cargo then the station needs to halves the price it is willing to pay for it. Makes no sense I know, but that is currently how it seems to be working, so know your market's demand before landing.
It might actually be more profitable to jettison some cargo before landing. Nice work FDev, have a cookie!
