Commanders having Elite from Epic games store with http 400 error
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.

BeardedHonusI'm not sure if this is the right thread to post in, if it isn't please forgive me. What can I do if the system I am currently in doesn't show up in the search results?




There are 2 reasons why this could happen that I'm aware of.

1. You misread a letter/number. Try swapping a 0 for an O or similar things if that appears in the system name.

2. The system genuinely doesn't show up in third parties. I have no idea why this issue exists or where exactly Inara pulls that data from. But other sites and the Fuel Rats IRC run into it too so if the above doesn't help just try looking for a system next door if possible. (this mainly helps if you're trying to look for something nearby or use a route plotting tool)



I copied the system name over from EDSM, but even typing just a part of the system name, it won't show up in the drop down selection and Inara also won't update my current location like it usually does. I'm bouncing around in deep space, so maybe it isn't in Inara. I'd like to know how to add it and it's planetary information.


Inara covered inhabited space, if you are out in the black you won't find Inara as useful. It just can't handle every system in the galaxy.

As said by Aunty Sledge, Inara doesn't have all known systems in it's database, but primarily focuses on inhabited systems. The closest Inara has is selecting a certain galactic region in the searches to get somewhat nearby results.
I believe EDSM and maybe eddb.io track uninhabited systems.
11 Feb 2021, 10:02pm
Yep, exactly this - I am storing just the star systems having some importance (there is some station in or it's relatively close to the inhabited places and so on). I do not bother storing all systems just because somebody flew there three years ago and nobody else was there since then. Partly because it has benefits for the performance (especially as the list of star systems is still growing), partly because it simply doesn't worth to be stored (as 99% of searches, etc. made are covered).

So for the searches far outside the Bubble/Colonia the region selected is good enough, otherwise some closer star system needs to be selected.

Are there any plans to implement the ability to put personal notes on stations or systems pages?  Would be nice to have the ability to make our own little notations for personal reference - similar to how you can on EDSM.  



Maybe have them also show up in our Notes section as well. (https://inara.cz/cmdr-notes)

Sometime today all the engineering on modules disappeared from all my ships on Inara. I'm not quite sure when exactly it happened but I'm wondering if it's an issue for anyone else. Updated logs via EDMC as well as Frontier import after going to outfitting, engineering still isn't showing up. Stored modules look like they're all fine.

Fixed, it was just a temporal display issue. Thanks for the report.

Maybe. Actually, I was just thinking about revamping the notes a few days ago. The option to add notes to stations was there a few years ago, but it was not very used so it got removed. Maybe there is a time to give it another shot (and with more options).

I noticed today that My Fleet contains a mixture of my two commanders' stable of ships. It used to track whichever commander was logged in and playing. The total Assets is inflated because of this. Reloading Inara, logging out and in of the commander does not help.

It seems you have linked an incorrect game account lately (Dr. Smith) or your Steam-Frontier link changed on Frontier's server, which is causing this problem. Please link the correct game account back again and remove any excessive ships.

I suspect allowing player factions to add notes to systems that only their members could read would be really use to their BGS co-ordination. It might also be useful if all those faction added notes could be read in one place in the faction page so they could centrally managed. Colour coding might also be useful as BGS tasks often have a priority rating and/or short and long term objectives.

A minor update to the best trade routes section - it now includes also round trips, for even bigger profits (and also station distances, for the more informed decisions).

Hmmm.... that quite copies the current missions and it serves the similar purpose, but I will think about that.

This is clearly a troll squadron that takes advantage of the pending alliance tag. Please remove it.

Thanks for the quick fix, as always

Another update - I will keep it short, as certainly everybody's busy playing.
  • Various improvements were made to the Nearest searches. You can now set more parameters there and further refine your searches. As the forms can get quite overwhelming due to these improvements, there were also quick searches with the most common stuff added. If you would like to have further (and generally useful) parameters in there or if you have any suggestions for additional quick searches to make things more comfortable, please place them here as usual. Also, for convenience, the Search section was extended for the nearest and outfitting searches, too.
  • A new full-text search was added for the discussions.
  • As mentioned a few days ago, the best trade routes in the market were improved and they now contain also round trips. More profit! Yay!  ;)
