Issues with Destiny 1 API and 404 Errors for Player Search Endpoint

[Daar0nat0r]

Hello,

I am currently working with the Destiny 1 API to retrieve specific player statistics, but I am encountering 404 errors when attempting to search for players via the API. Specifically, I am using the SearchDestinyPlayer endpoint to find players by their Bungie Name, but it returns a 404 error with the message "Endpoint not found."

Here’s an example of what I’ve tried:

Endpoint URL:
https://www.bungie.net/Platform/Destiny1/SearchDestinyPlayer/{membership_type}/{player_bungie_name}/
For example: https://www.bungie.net/Platform/Destiny1/SearchDestinyPlayer/2/Deej/
Membership Types: Xbox (1), PlayStation (2), etc.
Bungie Names: "Datto", "Deej"
The response returned is a 404 error, indicating that the endpoint was not found, and the message suggests that the service is unavailable.

I have verified that my API key is correct and included in the headers of my requests.
I’ve also confirmed that the Bungie names I used are valid (e.g., "Deej", "Datto").
Could you provide some guidance on what might be causing this issue or if there are any changes to the API endpoints? Additionally, any examples of how to correctly search for players and retrieve statistics from Destiny 1 would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for your assistance!

Can you try switching from /Destiny1/ to /Destiny/ and let me know if that works for you. For example:
https://www.bungie.net/Platform/Destiny/SearchDestinyPlayer/2/Deej/

Alright I did this and the api actually found the different profiles, but all of them came up with 0 Destiny 1 Cota's End clears as the output. Despite the profiles I tested having more than 0 Destiny 1 Crota's End clears.

Looking at the docs, it appears SearchDestinyPlayer is obsolete; if you try using SearchDestinyPlayerByBungieName, does that give you the results you expect?
