Re: EASHL API Disabled?

Lol just came to post this as my web guru was like BAM stats are BACK!!

Awesome, thanks for finding a solution! Is this a standard curl template that you tried and happened to work, or were you able to determine the solution from the error message after attempting the command in my OP?

It looks like Akamai (EA's CDN provider) is blocking a ton of IPs from data centers likely in a way to cut down on aggressive/malicious bot behavior. Unfortunately it's a widespread block so clean or unused IPs get picked up in that net.

I have access to servers in multiple locations (Montreal, Dallas, Tampa, Utah, and Virginia). I used a few servers in each to test API calls - including from IPs that have not been used for outbound network in years - and they were all effectively blocked. I ended up tunneling my requests through a paid VPN service and it works great.

Can't thank you @PlayoffError  and @Georgeandpfunk enough for your work you guys have done.

As an aside, any chance either of you have figured out a workaround for fights being double-counted in skpims? I've only been tracking club & skater stats for about a week now but any fighting majors show as 10 minutes and not 5 in the skpims field. I am not sure if other majors are counted correctly.

Hey, thanks for the kudos.

I've never noticed the issue with fighting PIMs being double counted. If it were me, I'd just do some cleanup after receiving the data like:

PIM = PIM - (#Fights * 5)

Anyone having issues with this recently? I'm using the API to pull game/player data for clubs using PHP. I'm able to get it working just fine on my localhost, but as soon as I upload the same code to my server it returns a 403 - Forbidden HTTP Code. It looks like there seems to be a slight difference in the header size being sent from my localhost compared to the one being sent from the server.

Any idea if anything has changed with it recently?

I just ran this script and it works fine, just grab the stuff you need from it.

Any new updates for NHL 24?
