==Rate limits==
The access to the interface is limited by the number of calls an VA can make each hour and each day.  An airline with a gold account can make 100 calls each hour and 1200 call each day. An airline with a platinum account can make 500 calls each hour and 6000 call each day. If an airline has multiple members then those limits are added together for each premium account.  Example if an airline has one platinum member and two gold member there limits are 700 an hour and 8400 per day.  Functions related to pilots booking flights do not count against the rate limits.

Site key:  This key is to be used by your main website/service and may be use the full rate limit allowed by your VA.  After one hundred calls using a site api key, the key will be locked to the IP address used.  If in the future you need to change the IP address all you need to do is delete the old key and create a new one.

Several of the functions require that the pilot calling be logged in.  Previous versions of the interface required the call passed the pilots username and a hashed password as parameters.  That method has now been discontinued, in this version you will need to call the ''pilotLogin'' to create a token that can be used to call functions for that pilot.  Unlike other calls in the interface, the ''pilotLogin'' function is also a HTTP POST call rather than a GET call.  Here is an example of calling the ''pilotLogin'' function.

The XML-Interface is the core of the VA Integration Kit. It has been designed to give VA Administrators with the knowledge of dynamic web techniques the possibility to create their own layout and perfectly integrate the information into their own website using data from FSAirlines.

This version of the XML interface is now released as official.

Changes from the previous version

Compared to the previous version of the XML-Interface the following change were made.

  • Change from domain registration to API keys.
  • Rate limits added.
  • Json output format added.
  • Output properly supports UTF-8 character set.
  • Additional functions for packages added.
  • All array keys are now in lower case.

Rate limits

The access to the interface is limited by the number of calls an VA can make each hour and each day. An airline with a gold account can make 500 calls each hour and 6000 call each day. An airline with a platinum account can make 2500 calls each hour and 30000 call each day. If an airline has multiple members then those limits are added together for each premium account. Example if an airline has one platinum member and two gold member there limits are 3500 an hour and 42000 per day. Functions related to pilots booking flights do not count against the rate limits.

Access Restriction

In order to be able to access data from the Data-Interface you need to create an API key, this can be done using the 'Api Key Management' page. To find this page on the website go to your VA Overview page and then in the options select 'Edit VA Settings' and then 'Api Key Management'.

There are two types of API keys that can be created.

Site key: This key is to be used by your main website/service and may be use the full rate limit allowed by your VA. After one hundred calls using a site api key, the key will be locked to the IP address used. If in the future you need to change the IP address all you need to do is delete the old key and create a new one.

Developer key: This key is used to help you create and test your website on a different machine than your main site. It will not be limited to a single IP address but will be limited to the number of calls each day your VA is normally allowed each hour. Usage of the developer key does apply against your VA's total rate limit.

Basic Usage

The data can be received using HTTP calls to the interface script and add the desired function to the parameters. Here is an example request:

http://www.fsairlines.net/va_interface2.php?function=getPilotList&va_id=7&apikey=xxxxx

As you can see there is the interface script va_interface2.php, the function getPilotList and the parameters va_id=7 and apikey=xxxxx. Some functions require additional parameters, these can be appended after the other parameters.

The result of the request will be given in xml format with the base-tag being <fsa_output>. This tag has the attributes version and success which show the version number of the interface and if the request succeeded or not. In case of a failure the success-attribute shows the error message. The following example shows the return text of the above function:

<fsa_output version="1.0" success="SUCCESS">
  <data id="1" name="Konrad" surname="Pustka" va_user="SNA101" location="EDDM" lastactive="1287330550" budget="198144" />
  <data id="2" name="Claudio" surname="Gusmini" va_user="SNA102" location="EDDM" lastactive="1286366261" budget="216405101" />
</fsa_output>

Inside the fsa_output-tag there are the data-tags which contain all the information.

When calling using this method the default output format is XML, you can get the out in JSON format by adding a format=json parameter to the request. Example:

https://www.fsairlines.net/va_interface2.php?function=getPilotList&va_id=7&format=json&apikey=xxxxx

The output will be:

{
    "status": "SUCCESS",
    "data": [
        {
            "id": 1,
            "name": "Konrad",
            "surname": "Pustka",
            "va_user": "SNA101",
            "location": "ETSE",
            "lastactive": 1600285079,
            "budget": 2400628
        },
        {
            "id": 2,
            "name": "Claudio",
            "surname": "Gusmini",
            "va_user": "SNA102",
            "location": "LIMG",
            "lastactive": 1605458811,
            "budget": 216631042
        }
    ]
}

If you need something to get started here's a small example PHP-script showing a list of your pilots' names. Just replace the va_id by your own.

<?php
  $ch = curl_init("https://www.fsairlines.net/va_interface2.php?function=getPilotList&va_id=7&format=json&apikey=xxxxxx");
  curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
  $http_status_code = curl_getinfo($ch, CURLINFO_HTTP_CODE);
  $http_text = curl_exec($ch);

  $objDOM = new DOMDocument();
  $objDOM->loadXML($http_text);

  $dataNodes = $objDOM->getElementsByTagName("data");
  foreach( $dataNodes as $node )
  {
    $name = $node->getAttribute("name");
    $surname = $node->getAttribute("surname");
    echo "{$name} {$surname} <br/>";
  }

Here is a sample of a PHP script reading the same data in JSON format.

<?php

    $ch = curl_init("https://www.fsairlines.net/va_interface2.php?function=getPilotList&va_id=7&format=json&apikey=xxxxxx");
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
    $http_status_code = curl_getinfo($ch, CURLINFO_HTTP_CODE);
    $http_text = curl_exec($ch);
    $json_data = json_decode($http_text, true);
    if ($json_data['status'] == 'SUCCESS') {
        foreach($json_data['data'] as $node) {
            echo "{$node['name']} {$node['surname']}<br/>\n";
        }
    }

Here is a sample of a Python script reading the same data in json format.

    #!/usr/bin/python
    import requests

    r = requests.get("https://www.fsairlines.net/va_interface2.php?function=getPilotList&va_id=7&format=json&apikey=xxxxxx")
    json_data = r.json()
    if json_data['status'] == 'SUCCESS':
        for node in json_data['data']:
            print('{} {}'.format(node['name'], node['surname'])

Pilot Login

Several of the functions require that the pilot calling be logged in. Previous versions of the interface required the call passed the pilots username and a hashed password as parameters. That method has now been discontinued, in this version you will need to call the pilotLogin to create a token that can be used to call functions for that pilot. Unlike other calls in the interface, the pilotLogin function is also a HTTP POST call rather than a GET call. Here is an example of calling the pilotLogin function.

<?php

$post = [
    'user' => 'username',
    'password' => 'xxxxxxxx'
];

$ch = curl_init("https://www.fsairlines.net/va_interface2.php?function=pilotLogin&va_id=7&format=json&apikey=xxxxxx");
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $post);

$http_text = curl_exec($ch);
$data = json_decode($http_text, true);

if ($data['status'] == 'SUCCESS') {
    $fsa_token = $data['data']['token'];
} else {
    die("Login failed");
}

The data returned in this request includes:

Parameter Meaning
token The pilots login token.
alt_code The alternate ICAO code of the airport they are currently located based on there default simulator.
budget The pilots current budget
default_sim The pilots default simulator.
location The FSA offical ICAO code of the airport the pilot is located.
