[edit] /char/WalletJournal.xml.aspx
[edit] Overview
Returns a list of journal transactions for character.
[edit] Data Caching
This method is cached according to the Long Cache Style.
Note: The cachedUntil value on the first query incorrectly shows a 15 minute cache expiration time, in fact it is 1 hour. Subsequent queries during that period will provide an error message but the correct cachedUntil value.
[edit] Input Arguments
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| accountKey | int | It isn't necessary to specify accountKey for characters because they have only one wallet (accountKey=1000). |
| apiKey | char(64) | Full access API key of account. |
| beforeRefID | bigint | Used for walking the journal backwards to get more entries; see Journal Walking, below. |
| characterID | int | The character you are requesting data for. |
| userID | int | userID of account for authentication. |

[edit] Output Rowset Columns
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| date | date string | Date & time of the transaction |
| refID | bigint | ID of transaction. Guaranteed to be unique with this page call; Was previously subject to renumbering periodically to remain within the limit of a 32bit integer [1]. As of 10/01/2010 the values of refID being seen have exceeded this limit, indicating that CCP have upgraded this field to a bigint (64bit integer), removing the need for further renumbering. Use the last listed refID with the beforeRefID argument to walk the list (see Journal Walking, below). |
| refTypeID | int | Transaction type. See RefTypes. |
| ownerName1 | string | Name of first party in the transaction. |
| ownerID1 | int | Character or corporation ID of the first party. |
| ownerName2 | string | Name of second party in the transaction. |
| ownerID2 | int | Character or corporation ID of the second party. |
| argName1 | varies | See Arguments, below. |
| argID1 | int | See Arguments, below. |
| amount | decimal | The amount transferred between parties (if this shows up in the in-game wallet as green, the number is positive; if red, then negative). |
| balance | decimal | The overall balance in this wallet, after this transaction. |
| reason | string | See Arguments, below. |
| taxReceiverID | int | If the row is related to taxation, then this is the CorporationID of who recieved the tax. |
| taxAmount | decimal | If the row is related to taxation, then this is the amount of tax paid. |
[edit] Arguments
Several RefTypes have special meanings for the argName1, argID1, and reason columns.
| RefTypeID | RefTypeName | argName1 | argID1 | reason | comment |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Player Trading | Station name | Station ID | arg describes where the direct player trade took place. See staStations table. | |
| 2 | Market Transaction | transactionID | 0 | See MarketTransactions API | |
| 10 | Player Donation | 0 | user-entered text | The donating player is free to enter text with the transfer, which shows up in the reason column here. | |
| 17 | Bounty Prize | NPC Name | NPC ID | This was replaced with refTypeID 85 when Trinity was released. | |
| 19 | Insurance | Destroyed ship's typeID | 0 | See invTypes table. | |
| 35 | CSPA | Player name | Player characterID | Player is the person whom you're trying to contact. | |
| 37 | Corporation Account Withdrawl | 0 | user-entered text | Similar to player donations; the donating corporation is free to enter text with the transfer, which shows up in the reason column here. | |
| 56 | Manufacturing | Job ID | 0 | See Industry Jobs API. | |
| 63, 64, 71, 72, 73, 74, 79, 80, 81, 82 | Various contract types | Contract ID? | 0 | ||
| 85 | Bounty Prizes | solarSystemID (see mapSolarSystems table) | NPC ID:quantity killed[,id:qty[,...]] | For each type of NPC killed, its typeID is followed by a colon and the quantity killed. These pairs are seperated by commas, and if there are too many (more than about 60 characters' worth) the list is ended with a literal ",..." to indicate that more have been left off the list. |
The complete refType reference can be accessed with the appropriate API. More information can be found here.
[edit] Journal Walking
The journal is configured to provide up to 1000 entries per request. It is also configured to allow you to view up to one week's worth of data. If the first 1000 entries you view stretch back further than a week, then you will not need to do any walking. However, if you have enough entries in your journal that 1000 is less than a week, you can walk backwards in the log to get more data.
Walking is performed by specifying the beforeRefID parameter as the lowest refID you have seen so far. You will then get another page with entries. This process can be repeated until you have gone back a week. The server will return an error if you attempt to go back farther.
Programmatically, it will be easiest to just loop while you are getting the max number of entries from the server, stopping when the server returns less than the max (i.e. you get 853 entries in a pull), the oldest entry is over a week old, or the server returns an error.
