during the FS Weekend in Lelystad one of my Aerosoft colleagues had contact with one of the SimBrief guys and was told that it should be possible to query more than the latest OFP via the SimBrief API.
But going through the offical docs, I don’t see any instructions on how to actually do that.
Going through the https://www.simbrief.com/api/xml.fetcher endpoint works without an issue for the latets OFP, but we’d also like to access the data of more than the latest, if possible.
So my question is: is this possible and if yes, how?
As you have seen, the XML fetcher endpoint doesn’t currently support retrieving older flight plans.
Is your app able to implement Navigraph authentication, as described on this page? If you’re able to implement this and obtain Navigraph access tokens, I can then send you details on SimBrief’s new API. With the new API, it is possible to get all of a user’s recent flight plans.
I will look into the authentication process. But just to make sure I understand the basic process correctly: the refresh token will have to be provided by the user itself, correct? We store it and re-use it to generate the access tokens to ask for data from the several endpoints?
