Help using the api? - how to get number of today's available lessons

WaniKani API And Third-Party Apps
1

So i want to get the number of today’s lessons via the api. I’ve done that for the reviews by calling https://api.wanikani.com/v2/assignments?immediately_available_for_review=true and just getting the total_count, but if i do that for the lessons with https://api.wanikani.com/v2/assignments?immediately_available_for_lessons=true i get the number of all the available lessons in the lesson picker.
I only want the number of lessons that are set for today (so the number that is displayed on the wanikani lannding page), is that possible to get?

I was Inspecting the WaniKani landing page and the div that shows available lessons… the following link seems useful. I’m not super familiar with how I could interact with the api to test, but hope it’s what you’re looking for:

https://www.wanikani.com/todays-lessons?utc_time_at_start_of_day=2024-03-24T00%3A00%3A00.000Z&timezone=Europe%2FLondon

The full turbo-frame HTML that contains this if you want to cross-check is quoted below!

Don’t think it is possible with the api. That’s a fairly new feature, I don’t think it was included yet, ir it’s even planned.

None of the new features in the past year or so have made it to the API (except for the kana vocab, but that’s just vocab). And if course they gutted the review API

I think it’s fair to assume that the API code is collecting dust.

Ngl, I kinda get it. It what I hear about the development is true, they don’t have a whole lot of active devs working on WK. And if that’s the case, I’d much rather have them working on feature improvements than the api

I don’t disagree, the issue for me is that the base website is lacking many features that I consider essential, so with the API degrading the overall experience gets worse for me. The new lesson interface is cool and useful though, I’ll give them that.

But hey, I’m level 60 now, I’ll be done soon enough anyway…
