Inara API

More about Inara API is on the API page, general dev guidelines are here and more detailed documentation about the events and data format here.

Just a note for tool authors using Inara API - please ensure your apps are doing  TWO requests per minute AT MAXIMUM. As I have discovered, many users are using multiple apps at once (nothing wrong with that), but are also updating their profiles from all of the applications at once, which is causing quite serious overhead. For such reason, I have needed to make API requests limits much tighter. For bots and other similar non-demanding apps are requests rates set same as before. If do you need another requests rate limit, please send me a PM.

Inara API update for Odyssey:
  • The header property isDeveloped was renamed to less confusing isBeingDeveloped. You don't need to change anything on your end though, the old property will still work.
  • A new event addCommanderTravelLand for commanders landing on the celestial body was added (should be triggered at journal's Touchdown, DropShipDeploy and similar).
  • The events addCommanderTravelCarrierJump, addCommanderTravelDock, addCommanderTravelFSDJump and setCommanderTravelLocation now contain optional properties for the star system coordinates, celestial body and celestial body coordinates. It's not required to set, it may however help to further precise commander's location when the star system is not in the database, etc.
  • The events addCommanderTravelDock, addCommanderTravelFSDJump and addCommanderTravelLand are now having boolean properties isTaxiShuttle and isTaxiDropship for travelling with Apex or Frontline Solutions ships.
  • New events setCommanderInventory, resetCommanderInventory, setCommanderInventoryItem, addCommanderInventoryItem and delCommanderInventoryItem added. Those are supposed for handling the new Odyssey events like ShipLockerMaterials and similar, you can however use it also for the existing engineering materials or ship cargo instead of the existing dedicated events (but you do not need to, they are not going anywhere).
  • New events setCommanderSuitLoadout, updateCommanderSuitLoadout and delCommanderSuitLoadout for the suit loadouts added.

Martind ForlonGreetings, I wanted ask if there is InaraAPI support for rank promotion? I saw that this information is not automatically added to the Achievement  log. (as temporary solution I uploaded game journal from my last play day and mentioned entry was added)


Mine logged and updated my Empire ranks. As I understand, not everything is updated simultaneously, so maybe you disconnected before it could? Just an idea.

Yes it does. However problem is when you board hop.

Otis B.Thanks for investigating. Next release should be later today.


Any news on next release?

Otis B.There's a bug in EDMC's Inara support that causes it to lose Mission (and some other events) when board hopping. Will be fixed in the next release.
This is fixed in Release 2.47, which also has a fix for registering your sold ship when selling and swapping ships.

Am I the only one with empty pages for the "YOUR APPLICATIONS ERROR LOG" section under settings > api ?
The pagination UI shows 4+ pages but all of them are empty.

It appears that the app is not updating the Inara ranks despite doing missions, combat and trade. As my score has not changed in the last 24/48 hours

Major faction and Pilot’s Federation rank & progress are sent on entering the game or starting EDMC, whichever is later. Rank promotions are sent to Inara as they happen, but progress is only sent at startup.
Does your progress on Inara match in-game?

Note: if you want have updated mission after you ends play (means you are staying on station after are missions handed in), close EDMC (and it will upload to inara all latest updates from the journal).

I was not staying in station after the missions being completed. As I was continuously playing for 3 or more hours doing a total of over 100 missions by taking and delivering/completing  those missions. Missions are being updated but not Inara ranking/score. The inara rank updated when I imported my log for the time I played continuously for over 3 hours.

Did you receive any rank promotions during this gameplay session? If so, which?

Just to clarify, game ranking is working fine. The problem appears to be the inara ranking. This is nothing to do with in game ranking such as achieving "Elite" or Rear admiral" status.

If it is the Inara rank, then it looks it is a problem on my side.
I will check, thank you for the report.
