The PlanetSide 2 API is now live! The system called Census is a warehouse of all PlanetSide 2 Data from Map Details, to Characters, Outfits, Items and more. It's the same service that runs behind our PlanetSide 2 Data Link here on PSU and the PlanetSide 2 Players Site which was also launched today! They are currently in a beta status, and working to improve the final release of the API:

Welcome to census.soe.com BETA! Over the next several weeks we will be assessing performance and usage and will be making adjustments to the API as needed. We expect to the structure, order and quantity of the data returned to change somewhat as we make improvements.

Users who wish to consume the API Data will need to apply for a Service ID through Sony Online Entertainment:

You'll need to apply for a service ID in order to access the API. Please don't share your service ID with others. SOE may terminate your service ID access without notice if you do not comply with the SOE API Policy. We may also terminate your access to the API if your website or app makes excessive requests or disrupts SOE's games.

Interested users should hit up the Census Info page for details on how to start using the API. Here at PlanetSide Universe we have created a new forum for API Discussion! If you are interested in using the API, have questions about your application, or have an application to share PlanetSide Universe will be your source for API Questions and Discussion!

The Players Site does not contain any Outfit Data but we have you covered!
