Hello,
I am having a hard time to find out what the manifest really is. I saw the post on the frontpage which says that you can find some kind of sql-lite database. I managed to get a look into this, but i dont know how the information in there is useful..
But my actual question is: Where can I find a documentation of the services which are provided under manifest/... ? For example:
http://www.bungie.net/Platform/Destiny/Manifest/InventoryItem/XXX/
this gets detailed information about the given Item. But I couldn't find any documentation about Manifest/InventoryItem/. I just saw it in an example. Is this documented somewhere? Are there more services I can access like InventoryItem? http://www.bungie.net/platform/Destiny/help/ just provides pretty basic information. Like /Manifest/{type}/{id}/ - and here is my problem that I cannot figure out what {type} is. I hope you can see my problem here and can bring some light into my darkness here.
All other services documented under /help/ are easy to use and understand. Thanks for any answers in advance!

I haven't seen the names of the tables in the manifest externally documented so it seems you have to download the sqlite manifest file to even know what {type}s are available. Basically, whatever hash you want to look up, there is a DestinyBlahBlahDefinition table and the BlahBlah part goes into {type}. Like http://www.bungie.net/Platform/Destiny/Manifest/Class/2271682572/ gets the json defining the Warlock class from the DestinyClassDefinition table in the api's copy of the manifest. But then if you already have the manifest you might as well just do your queries there.
