API:Render service
From Guild Wars 2 Wiki
Jump to navigationJump to search
The render service provides access to in-game assets like item icons, skill icons and more.
Images can be accessed via URLs of the following form: https://render.guildwars2.com/file/{signature}/{file_id}.{format}
Both the file id and signature are required to retrieve the file. Valid file formats are png and jpg.
Example
Endpoints
API version 1 endpoints like e.g. the item_details resource will return the file id and the signature separately while version 2 endpoints like e.g. /v2/items will return the full url (with a png suffix).
Endpoints that provide information that allows access to files include but are not limited to:
- /v2/achievements
- /v2/achievements/categories
- /v2/continents
- /v2/currencies
- /v2/emblem/foregrounds
- /v2/emblem/backgrounds
- /v2/files
- /v2/finishers
- /v2/gliders
- /v2/guild/upgrades
- /v2/items
- /v2/mailcarriers
- /v2/masteries
- /v2/minis
- /v2/mounts/skins
- /v2/novelties
- /v2/outfits
- /v2/pets
- /v2/professions
- /v2/pvp/amulets
- /v2/pvp/heroes
- /v2/pvp/ranks
- /v2/pvp/seasons
- /v2/skills
- /v2/skins
- /v2/specializations
- /v2/traits
- /v2/wvw/abilities
- /v2/wvw/objectives
- /v2/wvw/upgrades
Notes
- While the render service requires both a file id and a signature the file id alone is technically enough to uniquely identify a specific file among all files.
