Auto Online - xyzz/acquisition GitHub Wiki

There are multiple methods that poe.trade uses to detect that a user is online.

  1. The character your currently playing is on the ladder for the specific league you're playing
    • Currently this API is rate limited so it can take up to an hour to actually detect you are online
    • So basically this detection isn't that reliable
  2. You have at least one premium stash tab set to 'public'
    • poe.trade can detect your online status normally within a minute

If you don't have a public stash tab you need to setup 'Auto-Online' in Acquisition.

A few other notes

  • When you see the green 'online' notification in aquisition it can still take a few minutes for poe.trade to notice your online status. So give it at least 5 minutes to notice.
  • Make sure you're contrul URL is using the latest address http://control.poe.xyz.is/...
    • If you don't currently use that re-request you're control ID from in game

Known Bugs

  • Does not work currently with steam streaming client

There is already an existing reddit thread that goes into the details of how to use this feature in Acquisition and I won't repeat the information here:

One thing to note however - Acquisition will look for a running POE process and will NOT mark you as online if it is actively running.
