ISACC2 API
Whether you want to build a browser extension, a custom Discord bot, or a live OBS widget for your streams, the new real-time JSON endpoint gives you all the data you need to tap directly into the mainframe.
What is the ISACC2 API?
Located at (thread_api.php) this endpoint returns a highly structured, rich JSON payload containing live data from across the site.
Here is what you can track:
- Absolute Max Counters: The true highest Thread ID and Post ID on the site. Perfect for building "Dubs" tracker extensions!
- Rich Latest Post & Thread Data: Deeply nested objects containing the absolute newest replies and threads, complete with author avatars, hex colors, threat classes, and smart 150-character excerpts.
- Live Site Statistics: Total users, total posts, and exactly how many people are online right now.
- Newest Member: Automatically track the latest user to join the grid.
What will you build?
A friend of the site is already using this to build a Firefox extension that tracks when the next "Dub" (matching ID numbers like 333, 444, etc.) is approaching on the timeline.
You could also easily use the content_excerpt and absolute_url fields to write a simple Python script that pings a Discord Webhook every time a new thread or post is published. The possibilities are endless.
Happy coding.
