Exchange Apps

I code apps for fandom exchanges because the AO3 interface is atrocious.

Automagic App Generator


Exchanges can generate their own apps automatically via https://autoao3app.fandom.tools.

If you want to search for requests across all exchanges, use https://autoao3app.fandom.tools/#/everything.

Bugs?


Please leave a comment here, stating which app/exchange, what the bug is, and steps I can take to reproduce it. It helps if you leave me your browser type, but I don't necessarily need it. Thanks! :)

Requests


If your exchange operates in a way that needs more features in the app, please leave a request here detailing what that might mean!

I currently only code standalone apps for Yuletide. If you are a mod who needs non-app code, feel free to DM me here or on Discord.


Caveats


Apologies in advance if I am slow in responding: I generally am not fandom active except around the Yuletide season. Thanks for understanding!

Known Issues


Nothing major at the moment.

Announcements



Due to AO3 rate limiting changes as of 24 Feb 2025, scraping might be unsuccessful more often, but should still work eventually.

Not a bug, but I just noticed the example CSV links at https://autoao3app.fandom.tools/#/help?goto=sheets still use the herokuapp URL instead of the fandom.tools one.

Edit: Or... my mistake, I didn't realize the CSV endpoints were hosted on a different domain that doesn't also serve the app's HTML UI (?). It might be good to mention that on the help page, since it's kind of unusual and there are probably quite a few people who remember that the app used to be hosted on a different domain but have forgotten what it was 😅 Sorry for the confusion, thanks for all your hard work!
