Tavern Talk Update Regarding Character API and PoB Auto-Import
Today on the Tavern Talk interview Ghazzy concluded with a question as to whether GGG would make public the API needed to support character import for tools such as PoB. Jonathan was actually outdated in his answer on this --- GGG enabled this API in the 0.1.1g patch on March 28th and the PoB dev team already has a functional dev branch that supports the import.
I know, because I've been using it for the past several days. It's not quite ready for public release, but the good news is that the capability to support this is already there, and fingers crossed we can all use PoB as we used to with auto-import of character updates again when 0.2 releases!

Is this what is needed to get poe2.ninja the information for build popularity?
Cant wait for this feature, its so nice to have on the go to find upgrades
Now we need the “copy item” button back on trade!
Yep we’ve been working on refining it over the past week. It only works to import your own account atm, but that’s fine for 99%of players. We’ll figure out a way to import from other accounts down the line
OH I NEEDED THIS
There's PoB for PoE2 now?
Or just let people play the game and enjoy learning what works and what doesn't on their own...
Jonathan doesn't seem to know a lot
Idk that this is a new feature or not but loved that I could search trade directly from PoB for an item that would improve my build
This is honestly such great news!
Out of curiosity, but is there somewhere to report PoB errors? E.g. it currently applies catalysts to corrupted enchant values while those aren't affected in game.
Would this be applicable to console, as well? I have made due, but being able to import my console character would go a long way
anyone know why GGG cant just fix and do this themselves?
if they cant handle it they should jut hire the pob guys
