BOID to design ID?

fin-lego

I just loaded inventory via API and now I need to convert BOID to Lego ID's. Could you let me know the options to retrieve this data?

Also I will need to color conversions. Is there a ready made code snippets available for this?

I can give you some hints on how to do this, but it is a lot of work to get correct, because there are a lot of edge cases, missing data, multiple variants, no matches, ed.

Feel free to install my InSpaceSync app, the tools are free to use (only FullSync mode is a paid service). It can convert from BrickOwl to BSX with a single command, and will show you any convertion issues.

If you want to do it yourself because coding is incredibly fun, go for it

ID Lookup
GET https://api.brickowl.com/v1/catalog/id_lookup
Retrieve the possible BOIDs for another ID such as a set number or design ID

- This lets you lookup IDs for BOIDs.

Color List
GET https://api.brickowl.com/v1/catalog/color_list
Retrieve a list of the colors

- This list contains the color IDs

Thanks!

I'll have a look to your app.

Yes, coding is fun till finding serious problems :-)

Should BO admin turn this on to access ID Lookup's?

No, you should be able to access it.
