title: Floodgate API
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
Floodgate has an API to extend what is possible and allow servers to get information about the Bedrock client. It also allows other plugins access to [Cumulus](/geyser/forms/)
|
|
|
|
This page will contain information about class FloodgateApi.
|
|
See the sidebar for more information about other parts of the API.
|
|
|
|
### Accessing the Floodgate API
|
|
See [here](/geyser/getting-started-with-the-api) for how to include the Floodgate API in your project.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The Floodgate API has changed in Floodgate 2.0. The most important change is that the API methods are no longer static and instead instance-based, as shown below.
|
|
|
|
The class FloodgateApi is the base class of the API and you need to use it to access any part of the API.
|
|
To access it, you simply type:
|
|
```java
|
|
FloodgateApi.getInstance();
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
After you got the instance, you have access to all the methods.
|
|
Use the documentation in the API module to see (and get info about) every single method available.
|
|
Most [API methods have a simple explanation](https://github.com/GeyserMC/Floodgate/tree/master/api/src/main/java/org/geysermc/floodgate/api).

#### We'll highlight a few to get you started quickly:
|
|
`FloodgateApi#isFloodgatePlayer(UUID)`
|
|
Used to check if the given UUID of an **online** player is a Bedrock player.
|
|
|
|
`FloodgateApi#getPlayer(UUID)`
|
|
Used to get the FloodgatePlayer instance of an **online** player.
|
|
Click [here](/floodgate/player/) to get more information about the FloodgatePlayer class.
|
|
|
|
**Note**: You don't need to wait until the Bedrock player is online to use the getPlayer and isFloodgatePlayer methods.
|
|
You can even use them in the pre-login events.
|
|
|
|
`FloodgateApi#getPlayerLink()`
|
|
Used to get the PlayerLink instance used by Floodgate to check for linked accounts.
|
|
Click [here](/floodgate/linking/) to get more information about the PlayerLink class
|
|
|
|
`FloodgateApi#sendForm(UUID, Form(Builder))`
|
|
Used to send a form to the Bedrock player with the given UUID.
|
|
Click [here](/geyser/forms/) to get more information about Forms.
|
|
|
|
### Using the API on backend servers
|
|
In order to successfully use the API on backend Spigot servers when using a proxy, `send-floodgate-data` must be set to `true` on the proxy Floodgate's config, and the `key.pem` file must be identical between all Floodgate instances.
