So, I'm documenting the Scratch API's functions. I was doing fine until I ran into the 5th from bottom: get_latest_project. It said it requires an authentication key. What is this authentication key?

Where is the API source code? I'll take a look at it.

I was just reading through the function but couldn't find any description of the authentication key. Anyways, the source is here, and that function is on line 1062.

Just taking a guess based on the parameters one would expect, couldn't it be the user's ID -- that series of numbers that were outputted by the authenticate_user.php page?

It's a constant...

So, why are you looking at Scratch's API again?

Why does it matter why? Anyway, he's creating a documentation for it so it's easier for developers to use.

Developers, or just people wanting to know some of the random stuff the API gives, like, what second a project was uploaded. wink
