EnderDuck247 0 Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 So I want to make a discord bot that scrapes buy orders and sell orders from backpack.tf. Is it possible to use something like selenium if I already have the API key with elevated access, or do I have to learn how to use their API? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mengh. 818 Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 No need to use Selenium - you can GET sell order and buy order information with your API key using the Classifieds Search API. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Do you know a good Python wrapper for this API that can do the same thing? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mengh. 818 Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 Out of the ones I've recently seen, this one is the most well documented: https://github.com/davidteather/BackpackTf-API Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Mengh. 818 Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 You can also just make your own wrapper function to call the API using Python Requests A Delicious Cashew 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
