Get live players

A game’s players this second, its rank on Roblox and its 24-hour high. Light enough to ask every 15 seconds, up to 12 times a minute in all, and it doesn’t count toward your daily calls.

Parameters

gamestringRequiredPath

The game: its universe ID, its name (like grow a garden), its Roblox link or place ID, or its roterminal.co link. A name picks the most played match.

Example

curl https://roterminal.co/api/v1/games/7436755782/live \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $ROTERMINAL_API_KEY"

import RoTerminal from 'roterminal'

const rt = new RoTerminal({ apiKey: process.env.ROTERMINAL_API_KEY })

const { data } = await rt.games.live('grow a garden')

from roterminal import RoTerminal

rt = RoTerminal()  # reads ROTERMINAL_API_KEY

data = rt.games.live("grow a garden")["data"]
