Hello !
Thank you for the report. Unfortunately, the API is using official Blizzard pages for data, and it seems the users can't be found on these. You can try yourself here : https://overwatch.blizzard.com/en_US/search/
I tried all the names you shared, and FunkMëMommy#2867 is actually the only one working for me 😅
Let me know if I can help you on anything else 👍
Do the players/{player_id}
endpoints do a search to find the profile, then get the information from the profile? I thought it somehow fetched it directly based on the battletag alone
Not directly, but it uses it to gather data about the last time a profile was updated, and the player namecard (which is not on the profile page).
I also noticed that if a profile can't be found in Blizzard search, it's not available if we try to use the url directly.
Are the profiles you're trying to use public ? If that's the case, I'm afraid I can't do anything to help on this issue 😕
I don't know if they're public, I just know that I get that error back so I assume the API doesn't know yet
If profiles can't be found on Blizzard pages, the API won't be able to resolve them 😕 It can happen for private profiles, or sometimes for some public profiles for some reason. It's not related to special char issue, I already had this feedback a few months ago.
Oh, weird! Thanks anyway :)
