Post questions about the Registration API here. If you can answer a question, please do. If not, Linden Lab will try to provide an answer.

  • Q: Capabilities for the RegAPI expire - how do I know and what can I do about it?
    • A: They expire every 30 days, unless you acquire the capabilities at the point when someone hits the reg page; then those capabilities won't expire. (Glenn Linden, 5/10/07)
  • Q: When are we going to get the ability to: (a) Start users with inventory (b) Use the new default avatar choices (c) Provide additional avatar choices (d) Start a user wearing something (like a HUD) (e) Start users in a group (f) Flag users as only accessing a specific sim, estate, PG / M, or custom list of locations? (g) Get referral bonuses through Reg API for premium accounts?
  • Q: Implementing and providing a custom registration process comes with all sorts of legal implications as outlined by section 2.3.1 (Registration API Additional Terms) of the SL API Terms of Use posted on the Second Life website. However, the RegAPI does not provide a way to indicate "end user agreement to the ToS" to Linden Lab. So, are there any audit requirements that a 3rd party registration site must meet in order to prove ToS was acknowledged and agreed to by each end user at a specific date/time and IP address, etc.?
  • Q: Are 3rd party registration sites required to provide a security image code confirmation function to prevent automated account registration attempts via their sites?
  • Q: There seems to be a contradiction between these two statements posted on the SL site (provided below). Could you please clarify what was actually intended? Can the 3rd party legally retain and record information about users registering through their site?
