Interact with Clash Royale API

Overview

The "Search Clans" operation in the Clash Royale node allows users to query clans from the Clash Royale API based on various filtering criteria. This operation is useful for retrieving a list of clans that match specific parameters such as clan name, location, member count, and score. It is beneficial when you want to find clans fitting certain characteristics, for example, to join an active clan with a minimum number of members or to analyze clans from a particular region.

Practical examples:

  • Searching for clans by partial or full clan name.
  • Filtering clans located in a specific geographic area using a location ID.
  • Finding clans with a member count between specified minimum and maximum values.
  • Limiting results to clans with a minimum score threshold.
  • Controlling pagination through "after" and "before" markers to navigate through large result sets.

Properties

Name Meaning
Name Search clans by their name (partial or full match).
Location ID Filter clans by a specific location identifier (e.g., country or region code).
Min Members Filter clans having at least this number of members.
Max Members Filter clans having no more than this number of members.
Min Score Filter clans with a minimum clan score.
Limit Maximum number of clan results to return (minimum 1).
After Return only clans occurring after this marker (used for pagination).
Before Return only clans occurring before this marker (used for pagination).

Output

The output of the "Search Clans" operation is a JSON array containing clan objects matching the search criteria. Each clan object typically includes details such as clan name, tag, description, location, member count, clan score, and other relevant metadata provided by the Clash Royale API.

If the node supports binary data output, it is not applicable here since the operation deals with JSON data representing clan information.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential for authenticating requests to the Clash Royale API.
  • The base URL defaults to https://api.clashroyale.com/v1 but can be overridden via credentials configuration.
  • Network connectivity to the Clash Royale API endpoint is necessary.

Troubleshooting

  • Common issues:

    • Invalid or missing API key credential will cause authentication failures.
    • Providing invalid location IDs or malformed parameters may result in empty results or API errors.
    • Exceeding rate limits imposed by the Clash Royale API could lead to temporary request rejections.
  • Error messages:

    • Authentication errors typically indicate problems with the API key; verify the credential setup.
    • Validation errors may occur if numeric filters like minMembers or maxMembers are out of logical bounds.
    • Pagination markers ("after", "before") must be valid tokens returned from previous queries; otherwise, no results or errors may occur.
