Clash Royale

Interact with Clash Royale API

Overview

This node interacts with the Clash Royale API to retrieve information about players, clans, cards, tournaments, and other game-related data. Specifically, for the "Players" resource and the "Get Upcoming Chests" operation, it fetches the upcoming chests that a player will receive in the game. This is useful for players or community managers who want to track or display the sequence of rewards a player can expect, helping with strategic planning or content creation.

Practical examples:

  • A player wants to know which chests they will get next to plan their gameplay.
  • A community website displays upcoming chests for featured players.
  • A bot sends notifications about upcoming chests to a Discord channel.

Properties

Name Meaning
Player Tag Tag of the player without the # symbol. For example, "8L9L9GL". This identifies the player whose upcoming chests are being requested.

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the upcoming chests for the specified player. The structure typically includes an array of chest objects detailing the type and order of chests the player will receive next.

If the API supports binary data (e.g., images), the node would handle it accordingly, but based on this operation, the output is purely JSON describing upcoming chests.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential for the Clash Royale API.
  • The base URL defaults to https://api.clashroyale.com/v1 unless overridden by credentials.
  • Proper configuration of the API key credential in n8n is necessary to authenticate requests.

Troubleshooting

  • Invalid Player Tag: If the player tag is incorrect or does not exist, the API may return an error or empty results. Ensure the tag is correct and does not include the # symbol.
  • Authentication Errors: Missing or invalid API key credentials will cause authentication failures. Verify that the API key is correctly set up in n8n credentials.
  • Rate Limits: The Clash Royale API enforces rate limits; excessive requests may result in temporary blocking. Implement delays or retries as needed.
  • Network Issues: Connectivity problems can cause request failures. Check network access and proxy settings if applicable.
