Garland Tools API Document

Final Fantasy XIV Non-Official Garland Database API document
This one is In English. The next post is Chinese one.

apiBase = "https://garlandtools.org/api/"
It will be abbreviated as ./ in this post.

I can’t type ‘$’ in code section. So I will use ‘&’ instead, which meant it was the parameter that you passed in before.
My English sucks. If you have any problem reading this, just ask me at the garland discord server in #void channel. I’m CyanClay#3305, active at 2 A.M. to 8 P.M. of UTC+0, or 9 P.M. to next day 11 A.M. of UTC-5, which was 10:00 to 24:00 in UTC+8.

There are Contents in the left section of the page on Desktop webpage. Use it in your way to navigate.

Core

Some data are used frequently so they are extracted as Core data.
The core data can be accessed by
https://garlandtools.org/db/doc/core/{languageCode}/3/data.json
https://garlandtools.org/db/doc/core/en/3/data.json
./get.php?id=data&type=core&lang=en&version=3

The core data is consisted by these things:

current patch number and all patch names.
exp required for each level to upgrade.
job indexes.
dye indexes.
gathering node bonus indexes.
place name indexes.
weather indexes.
quest genre indexes.
retainer venture indexes.
action category indexes.
achievement category indexes.
item category indexes.
some crystal item datas.

Get the core data , reformat it and see what it contains, will be much more efficient than me speaking or listing them here.
