26 EASHL Clubs Website and APi

Same problem here...

Hey, everyone. I'm looking into this and will let you know when I have an update.

Hey, everyone. I'd like to get the following from you all:

• League name
• URL
• IP
  
  

You can send this in a private message if you like. Thanks!

Sent.  Are they blocking now and only whitelisting specific sites for access?

We haven 't blocked anyone. Appreciate you sending over the requested info. I'll post an update when I have one.

Providing an extra bit of info, if it helps.

I too also started having this issue a couple days ago. However, only on one of my PCs. When I tried to access the API via my Windows 11 machine, it was giving me the 403 error code. But, I have a bot that I'm developing to run my own league, that bot is running on a separate machine, connected to the same network as my Windows 11 PC, but that machine is running Linux (Ubuntu). That bot is able to access the API just fine.

Using the same headers on both.

Very strange.  My API and discord bot is running Linux ubuntu and getting blocked but i can access the api in chrome on the linux box.  

Can you show the headers you're using that works?  

Hey, sorry for the late reply. This is what I'm currently using:

I never used headers at all and it just worked.  It was just a simple curl GET request and got the JSON response from the EA API.  Thanks for sharing the headers, I had similar headers but I tried yours and same result (Access Denied) on Linux Ubuntu... So frustrating .. 

Below was my CURL request that worked for years until now..

$url = "https://proclubs.ea.com/api/nhl/clubs/search?platform=common-gen5&clubName=M%20E%20N";
$curl = curl_init();
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUEST, 'GET');
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);

$result = curl_exec($curl);
$status = curl_getinfo($curl, CURLINFO_HTTP_CODE);
curl_close($curl);

Results >>
Access Denied
You don't have permission to access "http://proclubs.ea.com/api/nhl/clubs/search?" on this server.

I'm pretty good at troubleshooting these issues but this one really doesn't make sense when it works on my chrome browser (Linux) but not with my PHP CURL request or POSTMAN.  Works for your Linux but not Windows .. So confusing.

Thanks 

Finally got it working! 

I got it working with these headers below.  Hopefully it helps you guys out too.

$headers = ["Cache-Control: no-cache",
                "Content-Type: application/json",
                "User-Agent: PostmanRuntime/7.46.0",
                "Accept: application/json",
                "Accept-Language: en-US,en;q=0.5",
                "Connection: keep-alive"];

You might need this as well in headers:

Accept-Encoding: utf8
