ActionScript 2 API
Deprecated
The AS2 API is no longer being actively developed, and is no longer fully supported
Kongregate's ActionScript 2 API
The Kongregate ActionScript 2 (AS2) API allows you to extend your game to communicate with the Kongregate back-end. The API is automatically loaded for all ActionScript 2 games, so there is nothing to download or install in order to integrate.
Accessing the API and Connecting
In order to access the Kongregate API object, you can simply get a reference to it from the _global
space. It is good practice to call the connect
method as soon as possible, as shown in the code below:
var kongregate = _global.kongregate;
kongregate.services.connect();
The Kongregate API Object
As you can see in the code above, we keep a reference to the "Kongregate API" object and store it in the variable named kongregate
. This is the assumption that is made for the remainder of the documentation, so if you store this reference in a different way, make sure to modify the examples accordingly. For ActionScript 2, you can always just use the _global
reference, and substitute in _global.kongregate
wherever you see the kongregate
variable in the sample code.
Once the API is loaded, you can start using functions from the Client API in your application.
