WoW API < QueryAuctionItems

Will return information about items in the auction house. There must be a delay of about 0.3 second between regular queries and 15 minutes between getall queries. Use CanSendAuctionQuery() to determine if a query can be done.

QueryAuctionItems(name, minLevel, maxLevel, page,
  isUsable, qualityIndex, getAll, exactMatch, filterData
)

Arguments[edit]

name
string
A part of the item's name (or the complete name) or "" for no retrenchment. Must be 63 bytes or less.
minLevel
integer (or nil)
Items below this level won't be returned. Either a number or nil for no restrictions.
maxLevel
integer (or nil)
Items above this level won't be returned. Either a number or nil for no restrictions.
page
integer
What page in the auctionhouse this shows up. Note that pages start at 0.
isUsable
boolean (or nil for false)
Is useable by the player.
qualityIndex
integer
Can be one of the following values:
0 - No restriction
1 - Common Quality (white) or better
2 - Uncommon Quality (green) or better
3 - Rare Quality (blue) or better
4 - Epic Quality (purple) or better
getAll
boolean
Download the ENTIRE auction house as one single page. Only allowed when CanSendAuctionQuery() returns true as its second return (~every 15 minutes). May disconnect people with low bandwidth. Also see notes on client-to-server traffic in GetAuctionItemInfo() (Added in 2.3, though initially disabled. Appears to be enabled as of 2.4)
exactMatch
boolean
Should the name be used as an exact match or should it match substrings of the auction items.
filterData
table
The old invtypeIndex, classIndex, and subclassIndex roled into one.


This is the code that builds the filter value(s) for filterData:
local filterData;
	if categoryIndex and subCategoryIndex and subSubCategoryIndex then
		filterData = AuctionCategories[categoryIndex].subCategories[subCategoryIndex].subCategories[subSubCategoryIndex].filters;
	elseif categoryIndex and subCategoryIndex then
		filterData = AuctionCategories[categoryIndex].subCategories[subCategoryIndex].filters;
	elseif categoryIndex then
		filterData = AuctionCategories[categoryIndex].filters;
	else
		-- not filtering by category, leave nil for all
        end


The following commands will return the currently selected category and subcategory:
/dump AuctionFrameBrowse.selectedCategoryIndex
/dump AuctionFrameBrowse.selectedSubcategoryIndex

Examples[edit]

Note: AH window has to be open before you click the macro.

Finds twink gear, blue armor between lvl 10 and 19:
QueryAuctionItems("", 10, 19, 0, false, 3, false, false, nil)
Finds battle pets that you haven't learned:
QueryAuctionItems("", nil, nil, 0, false, 0, false, false, AuctionCategories[10].filters)
Finds anything on the AH with the word 'Nobles' in it. Useful for hunting down that elusive last and final Darkmoon Card. :)
/script QueryAuctionItems("Nobles", 0, 0, 0, false, 3, false, false, nil)

Notes[edit]

If name is longer than 63 bytes, you'll be disconnected from the server.;;If any of the entered arguments is of the wrong type, the search assumes a nil value.
