Which notifications, to which discord?
If you could explain further I would be able to get a more correct answer.

What do you mean by VMEnhancer calculates the total points?
Do you mean the potential points?
Its calculates the training data and estimates the potential points from that, to see where on the scale he is (or could be).

There's a potential point table floating around the forums, that could help show if they are bottom promising, top promising, low formidable, etc.
It might give a better understand of the player and what/how he can perform.

.JSON access to

Would be great, I'd use my own discord channel / bot as the one in the discord is only in Danish doesn't make sense updating it to English as the international channel is not used at all.

I'd use it to get notified on private messages / bid offers, new bids on players you've got on auction etc that way I can react reasonably instant.


Discord also offers a webhook to allow messages to be sent directly to it however, it would be more work on your end to customize what notifications you actually want to receive. .JSON access to the page would be the easiest update to offer on your end.

For squads, you do have: https://www.virtualmanager.com/clubs/1285767.json
Which shows your club and yours players. Finding the ones at 23 or below, would give you youth squad.

All of the endpoints you list here, are only available ones you have logged in, compared to the current json we have, which are all public afaik.

I will, however, write it up, so the developers can see the wish.

For the squad overall page it was more the area where it lists which players have become talents etc on that day.

With regards to being behind a login page. Multiple ways to verify a user (API access tokens) being used mainly on a site I run to give users access to things that register verification.

Either way, thanks for pushing it forward for the Devs to take a look. It's appreciated
