Client Roles

Each client may perform one or more roles:

  • End-User Support

    This client allows for end-users (iRacing customers) to login, providing Identity Verification or access to user information from the Data API.

    There may be hundreds or thousands of on-going sessions for end-users.

  • Internal Support

    This client retrieves information from the Data API which is available to any authenticated user; schedules, official session results, and the like.

    There might be just one session to retrieve data for the client.

We recommend that these two roles are separated. This allows for better tracking and control. Please contact us we will issue an additional client_id.
