Gamertag availablility #32

Closed pyronlaboratory closed 5 years ago

pyronlaboratory commented 5 years ago

Hi Alan/XboxTeam,

Thanks for your reply on my previous post.

I'm creating a new issue, since last one was closed.

Could you possibly share a small snippet demonstrating how to check if a gamertag is available?

I would really appreciate your help.

Thanks, Ronnie

If you want to check if a gamertag is valid, you just make a request against it. If its a valid taken gamertag, you will get the XUID. However if its available then you will get a 404. I didn't write the Python wrapper, so the maintainer will have to explain what (if any) exception is thrown against a bad gamertag when requesting the XUID.
