import your exported data IGDB have ability to export your data, which is greate, and it would be nice to have a way to import this exported data back to your account.
2 votesHey there!
Could you clarity what do you mean by data in this case, is it to do with the lists and ratings in particular?
Curious to learn more about such a use case, is there a particular need to re-upload the exported CSV or Excel document rather than use the website?
Thanks!

Hi!
Could you give us more information what you mean in this case? By status do you mean adding a new one along side Alpha, Beta, Early Access, Cancelled etc..?
If so how would you define Dropped, it sounds like it would be similar to cancelled, as in the development has been in definitely put on hold.
Thanks!

Add chapters of games Many games have chapters, which could be listed here potentially alongside a time to beat for each chapter since games can have 30 minute chapters or 2 hour chapters. This would help people get general ideas of where they are in the game, or simply compare playtime by chapter.

Versions of Sonic the Hedgehog When trying to tag my stream as the game Sonic the Hedgehog (the 2006/2007 game for Xbox 360 and PS3), it is impossible to tag in any list or drop down, be it Twitch, Twitch Studio, OBS, Streamlabs, etc. I see that the game is on IGDB, so why doesn't the game ever show up?

Platform_Version missing on platform-version-release-dates A user wanted to sort the release dates of platform versions by date and get the name of the version. But could not since platform-version-release-dates field platform_version is missing.
Example query:
https://api.igdb.com/v4/platform_version_release_dates
fields *, platform_version.name; sort date desc; limit 500;Expected: A sorted list of platform version release dates and the name of the platform version name
Actual: A sorted list of platform version release dates without the platform version data.

Differentiating Titles with Identical Names in Menus This is only a minor pet-peeve and super conditional, but there are times when Titles with the same name are released in the same year. This makes it fairly difficult to differentiate titles from each other when you are adding titles into various lists in the Edit menus. (Bundled Games, Versions, etc.) Most of the time you will see a year of the release in these menus, but there are examples of different versions released in the same year.
I will sometimes add the platform to the title of a game to help this, but this isn't the cleanest look…

Game image catalog naming convention as altenative titles Some of the games don't get results through the API because the names used by ROM (and other game images) documenting organizations have some rules that don't apply to IGDB's main title rule.
Some of them:
If the title starts with an article, it goes to the end of the title. (Legend of Zelda, The)
If there is a non-standard character, like slashes, quotes, etc, they are removed.
The Japanese naming scheme uses double vowels instead of singles ones.It would be good to have as an alternative title option something like: "Alternative title - No-Intro Naming Convention".
I'm pretty…

Game list missing from some company pages On a number of company pages, the game list does not appear, and games associated with the company can only be viewed within the timeline element (which does not display games without a release date, and is slow to reflect updates). This issue seems prevalent among company pages with relatively few games, although that might not be the direct cause.
Examples:
https://www.igdb.com/companies/cecile-richard
https://www.igdb.com/companies/d3t-limited
https://www.igdb.com/companies/kitty-horrorshow
https://www.igdb.com/companies/michael-lutz

Popularity attribute not functional The current popularity value for a game doesn't make any sense.
Please see below examples showing the popularity value with the hypes, and number of user ratings."id": 115278,
"hypes": 1,
"name": "Rune Factory 4 Special",
"popularity": 2090.622837928576"id": 120268,
"name": "Zombie Driver: Immortal Edition",
"popularity": 1431.973719413489As you can see, the top 2 games by popularity both have 0 user ratings. How can these be the most popular games on IGDB?
The docs say 'The popularity number is calculated using usage statistics of game pages at https://www.igdb.com' which can't possibly be true if these games are at the…

We’re not currently supporting popularity unfortunately, the existing hypes in the API are out of date and therefore out of sync, which is very likely why you’re getting those games as results.
We will be updating our documentation to reflect this, but meanwhile we recommend not using Popularity since it isn’t providing an accurate count.

The involved_companies field stopped returning companies of type Publisher I have been using the following fields list on the /games path for several years now to retrieve a subset of data I needed for games:
fields first_release_date,summary,genres.name,themes.name,involved_companies.*,involved_companies.company.nameThis previously worked properly, and I have code to process the variables for "developer", "supporting", and "publisher" on each involved company that is returned. However, I recently noticed that no games ever return results with "publisher" set to true anymore after re-grabbing data for some games and seeing the publisher data I had stored for them disappearing for every game (where previously the same method had received those results). I only ever…

Rating system into a new era https://pedia.watcha.com/en-KR/
This website is a Korean website called "Watchapedia" which is a user review webstie of movies and TV shows. This website is basically based on humongous number of simple user review of each contents. Users easily can rate with 1 to 10 point system into thier watched contents, and using these big data, AI gives each user what to watch next. I think this idea is very useful and also adaptable to game industry too. How about enhancing rating system into next level and making some progress similar to "Watchapedia"?

Revision of the Company Page There is at least one known issue regarding the company page.
(see https://discord.com/channels/114736716505546761/173875325304832000/1113002167096328246)
But maybe you can discuss the company page in general at some point?
