# Who is in this world (the roster)

`GET /api/v2/members`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://www.onlyworlds.com`
- URL: `https://www.onlyworlds.com/api/v2/members`
- Auth: one of:
  - API key in header `API-Key`
  - API key in header `API-Key` and API key in header `API-Pin`

Any key on the world. One row per membership, active and removed, so every element's created_by resolves to a row: a Narrative's `narrator` is what its writer claims, `created_by` is what the server recorded, and this joins the two. No usernames or emails: a Character is the public face. A Character the world's owner hid from this key is `character: null` on every row that plays it (the owner, the co-builders and the member who made it still see its id).

## Response `200`

The owner row first (id null), then active members by joined_at, then removed members by removed_at. Not paginated.

- object
  - `data` object[], required
    - `id` string, uuid, nullable, required: The membership id (what created_by holds), or null for the owner.
    - `kind` 'owner' | 'person' | 'agent' | 'player', required
    - `role` 'owner' | 'co_builder' | 'contributor' | 'guest', required
    - `character` string, uuid, nullable, required: The Character that is this member (the owner's owner_character), or null.
    - `status` 'active' | 'removed', required
    - `name` string: Agent and player rows only: the agent's or the player's name.

## Other responses

- `401`: Missing, invalid or revoked credential, or a wrong PIN (authentication_error; code key_revoked for a revoked key, invalid_credentials otherwise).
- `429`: Too many failed PIN attempts; see the Retry-After header (rate_limited). Or too many requests: over the request budget (code too_many_requests, type rate_limited): 300 requests a minute per key or account token, 60 a minute per address for a request with neither. Retry after the Retry-After header's seconds.
- `503`: The server is busy: every request slot stayed full for 10 s (code server_busy, type api_error). Retry after the Retry-After header's seconds.
