How Roll20 APIs works

To use the API, you must get a Pro account subscription. The API works on JavaScript language and returns the result in the JSON format. HTTPS protocols are used in making request endpoints for the scripts.

There are two ways in which you can add a script to your game. Once logged in to your Pro account, navigate to settings then select API scripts. You should choose a script from the dropdown list of script library if the script is already part of Roll20 API.

The alternative method allows you to copy the JavaScript code you want from an external editor. On the Roll20, click on a new script and paste the script. Include a short description of it and add the script.

The API console returns details from the sandbox so that you can see the log information and error that you may have encountered in your script.
