Hey y'all,

• typed_tags Set to true to return typed tag information. The tags value returned is a dictionary with each tag type as a key and then a list of tags of that type.

(From the API documentation)

I've tried to call this API call with &typed_tags=false and it gives me a dictionary of types containing lists of tags. I doubt this is intended, as typed_tags hasn't been set to true.
Even using &typed_tags= without anything displays the typed tags. Only removing the = (&typed_tags) shows the default tag list.

Could that be a bug in the API? Maybe a mod/admin knows more about it?
_{PS: Using e926 in example links because at work lol
PPS: I'm trying to write a Python3 API Wrapper, that's how I noticed this "bug" :P}

There are a bunch of oddities with the API. This specific value however simply checks if it is present in the params list and not empty, so you should OMIT typed_tags from the list of you don't want typed tags.

Well, that's not how checking for true works tho :/
It shouldn't just be "is it present?" whether or not it's false. Passing false should be considered by the API as a false value and therefore show the tags as a list and not as a dict of types with lists of tags.

But okay, at least I know how it works now and will try to adapt.

Coming back to this thread as a new issue has arised for me:

https://e621.net/post/vote.json?id=1789239&score=1 "redirects" me to this atrocity _{(the Hex value 0x000000060177e0 changes every time)} and displays "This post does not exist" on red background.

I pass a custom User-Agent (e621.py | Version 0.0.1 | by t.me/(my tg-handle)) and my login= and password_hash= but the request still fails.
Printing the response from the server I receive this error (requests.exceptions.HTTPError: 403 Client Error: Forbidden for url: https:// e621.net/post/vote.json*) even though I can't see where there is an issue.
^{*space to prevent hyperlink and have inline code working lol}

I have given the API the exact values as per the documentation and it just doesn't work.

POST method is required for any call that modifies state.
