Click
Clicks a user's cow in your application.
Note: An application can only call this method after a user has clicked on their current cow in your application. Retrieve the cow image with the User method first.
Endpoint
http://api.cowclicker.com/api/
Parameters
passed via HTTP GET
name | type | description |
action | string | Must be set to the literal value "click" |
appid | string | Your application's unique identifier |
uid | long integer | The user id of the user to click |
sig | string | Must be a valid request authentication token |
Returns
JSON object with the following members:
name | type | description |
success | Boolean | True if the click was successful; otherwise False (e.g. a click issued before the timer has elapsed). |
next_click | integer | Seconds remaining until the user's next eligible click in your application. |
click_url | string | URL for feed click mooney awards. Useful for action links in Facebook feed stories. |
error | string | A JSON string with a description of the error. Only returned if an error occurs. |
Notes
User id is a standard Facebook user identifier. Implement Facebook's API or integrate with your existing Facebook application. |
The Click operation must be initiated by the end user, and it must entail the user clicking (tapping, or otherwise activating) their currently selected cow. Use the User method first to retrieve the cow image. Applications that call click without cow clicks will be disabled or removed, Steve Jobs style. |
Cow Clickers tend to expect that their cow will moo audibly when clicked, but only if the click returns successful. If your cow does moo audibly, it should implement the official Cow Clicker moo. Get the moo files here. |
