Hi BambuLab Team
I’d love to suggest a feature that would help creators (like myself) and developers build even more integrations and creative projects around MakerWorld.
The idea
Add either:
- An official MakerWorld API allowing users to fetch their public profile information such as:
- Level
- Total downloads
- Print count
- Likes / favorites
- Followers / following
- Recent uploadsThis would allow us to build cool visual dashboards, integrations for personal websites, or even physical displays (like stat trophies, badges, or progress meters).
OR
- A user-specific RSS feed for example:
- Showing new uploads from creators you follow
- Once-per-day summary posts with current stats (downloads, prints, likes, etc.)
This would be much simpler to implement but still give creators and followers a great way to stay updated automatically.
Why this matters
Many MakerWorld users have been asking for API access for quite some time, and it seems there aren’t current plans for one.
A small step like this would:
- Empower makers to showcase their achievements and activity
- Encourage community-driven tools, dashboards, and integrations
- Bring more visibility and traffic to MakerWorld through shared stats and creative visualizations
Please consider adding either a read-only API or an RSS feed option for user data, it would be a huge boost for creators and the MakerWorld ecosystem as a whole.
Thanks!
