More info?? What VTT are you wanting to use PF2 in? Try sending a message to that company and asking them if they are doing anything to import the data?

EDIT: Apologies, I missed the line that said it wasn't finished for PF2.

Isn't the API only available for Starfinder? Which is why they are asking any word on the release of the API for PF2.

I plan to write my own but last I heard the pf2e api isn’t yet complete, hence the query. As soon as complete I can get started.

Hi Zimrathon, what VTT are you planning to write an integration module for? Wouldn’t happen to be Foundry (hint, hint) ?

Rob, I'm developing a converter for Foundry VTT, and here's what I've come across so far:

• Perception not exported
• Class Key Ability not exported
• Heritage only exported in some cases (Harsk has it, many others, including many of my personal PCs do not)
• Gender, age, height, weight, hair, skin, eyes
• wealth
• PFS Faction Rep
• rogue racket "thief" not exported
• dedications don't always export (ex: rogue with cleric dedication)

More to come as I discover them

You can find my code here:

At this moment, I'm thinking of moving over to the API. Looking at docs.

Hey BoomerET, can you take a look at the attached JSON and XML file and see why so much of the JSON content is missing from the XML output?

You should probably contact him via github by filing an issue

Is there a timeline for when Pathfinder 1e will come to the API?

I'm waiting desperately.

I REALLY would like to use Hero Lab as my character- and NPC-Adminstration Tool. That way, I can do all the character (and encounter-)building and adminsitration in one single app.

But that only works well, if you have any kind of interface (API) with common VTTs. More an more gamers use VTTs, so this should be a market.

With a propper interface I could administrate my PCs in Hero Lab and send rolls to Roll20 and Foundry, for example. That would be awsome.

Pathfinder 1E, Pathfinder 2E and Starfinder should all be supported by that API.

Maybe you could lunch a crowdfunding-campaign to get this done.

Best scenario: We have alle the Pathfinder 1E adventurepath-material in Hero Lab and can send rolls oder character sheets to a Roll20 game. No more tiring setup in Roll20. Just set up maps and lighting and "roll for it" :-)


Thanks!
