SentinelShare developer docs

Download .md

SentinelShare is a shared ban network for Arma Reforger communities. Server staff file bans for cheating, exploiting, duping, racism and DDoS threats, other communities verify them, and every member community can use the list. These docs show your developers how to bring that list into your own tools.

Before you start

Your community needs to be on SentinelShare. A SentinelShare network admin adds your community and makes your server owner a Server Owner account. Ask a SentinelShare network admin.
Your server owner creates an API key. They sign in at sentinelshare.com with Discord, open API keys and press Create key. Keys start with ssk_, are read-only, and belong to your community, so they keep working when staff change.
Give the key to your developer privately. Anyone with it can read every ban on the network, including players' IP addresses. Keep it in server-side config, never in a browser, a public repo or a screenshot.

The API in one minute

Base URL: https://sentinelshare.com/api/v1/integration
Send your key on every request: Authorization: Bearer ssk_…
GET /bans returns bans created or changed since your last call. Store them by id, replace on repeat, and call again with since=<next_cursor> every few minutes.
GET /lookup?arma_uid=… (or discord_id, ip, name) returns one player and all their bans.
300 requests a minute per key.

Giving these docs to an AI assistant

Every page has Download .md and Copy as Markdown buttons. To hand the whole set to an AI coding assistant in one go:

Download all the docs as one file and attach or paste it into your assistant, then describe your panel: framework, database, where players join.
Tools that read llms.txt can start from sentinelshare.com/llms.txt.

A good prompt to start with: "Using the attached SentinelShare docs, add a scheduled job to my Laravel admin panel that syncs SentinelShare bans into a sentinel_bans table, and flag players on join whose Arma UID has an active ban."
