Hi, will this get the current skins so the skin the player is wearing currently because i used this and it displayed a skin i wasnt wearing

I want to program a discord bot that has the same functionality and the bot should find out the epic id and the other platform names. Do you have a code for me?

How you can get the account id for the user you wnat to check his avatar or skin are you using any type of auth ?, if yes what is it , and mybe that need the user to be authenticated

The user most of the time will always have to be authenticated through EOS to have access to those abilities. You could use permission sets and try to pass the correct perms to access READ abilities without connecting to EOS directly.

This would use the OAuth2.0 API. I have a way to use the deprecated grant type password. The grant type has permissions for READ/WRITE/CREATE. Just simply passing the email:pass of the users account in return an access token is passed for all use on EOS including Athena profile endpoints which are needed to check skins on the target account.

Hope this helps this section a little!!

What is the “way” to use the grant type password?

I am making a full checker on my page (not advertisement).

Since Epic banned its use on me public clients that means that private clients still have the same permissions for WRITE abilities.

Accessing private clients means having a dev API key which I was lucky to have an app that is trusted on the epic dev portal and can utilize these permissions with lower request rates and it's get timed out every 250 checks.

I know that if you play with CTFortniteGameClient you can make it work but it times out like a b**** and is practically not usable.

The other way would be going directly through the heart of the login and getting past hcaptcha. But risks are high for detection and patching.

You could use this: get_account_by_display_name.md and from there you can make a GET request to https://avatar-service-prod.identity.live.on.epicgames.com/v1/avatar/fortnite/ids?accountIds=, use the endpoint (get_account_by_display_name.md) to get the account ID, you need to already be authenticated, with a valid access token.

NOTE:

You may need to be friends with the account to get information about their avatar (NOT SURE 100% THOUGH)
