About the WoW API

Blizzard has provided the community WoW API as a way for developers to get access to information about a wide variety of subjects within the World of Warcraft universe. LibWowAPI takes the provided information and creates strongly-typed classes that should be familiar for .NET developers to work with.

Blizzard requires that you authorize your applications through their Mashery site. All requests require a key, so be sure that you get your key from Blizzard before using the API.

Data is accessed via SSL, so make sure that you are able to send requests on TCP Port 443.

While all regions are available through the API, some of the more recent resources are only made available to some regions first. Therefore, not all of the classes contained within the library are available in all regions.
