Approved Update API endpoints for Trade creation / Item management

[aleo]

Hello,
I am using the DragonByte Shop add-on on my XenForo installation. In the Admin Panel I can see permissions such as:

• dbtech_shop_trade_post:read
• dbtech_shop_trade_post:write
• dbtech_shop_trade_post:delete_hard

However, none of these permissions appear in the official XenForo REST API documentation, and I cannot find any DragonByte-specific API endpoints either.


My Goal:
I want to create a trade post via API (programmatically from n8n).
In other words, I need an endpoint that performs the same action as creating a “Trade” inside the Shop manually from the UI.


Questions:

1. What is the official API endpoint for creating a trade post?
   (Example: POST /api/dbtech-shop/trade-posts or similar)
2. If these permissions (read, write, etc.) correspond to API scopes, what are the exact routes they enable?
3. Does the add-on expose API endpoints for the following operations:
   
   • Creating a trade (trade post creation)
   • Reading a user’s credit balance
   • Reading transaction logs / purchase history
   • Reading user-owned items
4. If no API endpoints exist, does this mean DragonByte Shop does not provide REST API support at all, despite showing API permissions in the Admin Panel?

I just need clarification on the correct API routes so I can integrate this with my automation system.


Thank you.

"Trade post" is posting a message to a trade, it is not "posting a new trade". There is currently no API for creating a new trade.
There is also no API to read or write anything other than trade posts and trade post comments.

I'll see if I can figure out how to generate the documentation, it's been so long since I created eCommerce's documentation I've entirely forgotten how to do so

I'll move this to Suggestions and flag it as Approved so it can be looked into for the next version.
