General
Third party clients are welcome to use our HTTP APIs if they provide a benefit to players and creators in the Factorio community. We ask developers to:
- ensure user privacy, e.g. by properly securing account secrets like passwords or tokens.
- respect server resources, e.g. by using exponential backoff in case of errors.
- communicate that their tool/library is in no way sanctioned by Wube Software.
We reserve the right to ban or rate limit abusive clients, IP addresses or accounts. Unless stated otherwise, our APIs should be considered internal.
Categories
