Profiles

Profile tags

Requires Authorization.

GET /v1/tags

Response:

Array of ProfileTagLanguage.

Get a profile by ID

Requires Authorization.

GET /v7/profiles/{id}

Response:

Get multiple profiles by ID

Requires Authorization.

POST /v3/profiles

Body:

  • targetProfileIds — array of strings with numeric ids, max profiles number per one request is 150

Response:

Update own profile (full)

Requires Authorization.

Profile object, fully replaces the current version. This is the only endpoint that persists the free-text fields displayName and aboutMe; the partial Update own profile (partial) endpoint ignores them.

Because the profile is replaced fully, every editable field must be sent on each request, including fields not exposed in the edit UI such as approximateDistance and profileTags.

displayName and aboutMe (plus custom gender/pronoun display text) are run through banned-terms moderation. A successful update answers with an empty body; rejected fields come back in a BannedTermsResponse, and the offending field is not changed.

PUT /v3.1/me/profile

Body:

Profile

Response:

  • display_nameBannedTerms, Present when displayName was rejected. or null
  • about_meBannedTerms, Present when aboutMe was rejected. or null

Update own profile (partial)

Requires Authorization.

ProfilePatch object, only updates the specified keys. Applies structured fields only (e.g. genders, pronouns, grindrTribes, tribesImInto, profileTags, sexualPosition, and the showAge/showDistance/showPosition/showTribes flags).

The free-text fields displayName and aboutMe are silently ignored here even though ProfilePatch includes them — they are only persisted (and moderated) by Update own profile (full).

PATCH /v4/me/profile

Body:

ProfilePatch

Profile tags suggestions, WIP

NOTE

This endpoint hasn't been researched yet

PUT /v4/profile-tags/suggestions

Profile tags translations, WIP

NOTE

This endpoint hasn't been researched yet

GET /v5/profile-tags/translations

Headers:

  • L-Locale — string

Upload media

Correct request's Content-Type header is required.

POST /v5/chat/media/upload

Query:

  • length — long integer
  • looping — boolean
  • takenOnGrindr — boolean

Body:

Binary file.

Response:

Upload media (legacy)

Requires Authorization.

You must ensure thumbCoords's width and height dimensions are equal, i.e. y2-y1 must equal to x2-x1. Submitting non-square thumbnail won't trigger any errors and it will be uploaded to CDN, however attempting to use such illegal thumbnail dimensions image in Edit profile photos will result in it being silently dropped/skipped.

Also there is a legacy POST /v3/me/profile/images.

POST /v4/media/upload

Query:

  • thumbCoordsRectF
  • takenOnGrindr — boolean

Body:

Binary file.

Response:

  • hash — string
  • imageSizes — array of objects
  • mediaId — integer

Edit profile photos

Requires Authorization.

Setting both primaryImageHash and secondaryImageHashes to null works. But setting primaryImageHash to a hash value while setting secondaryImageHashes to null causes HTTP status 400 Bad Request error. It's recommended to just use [] for secondaryImageHashes rather than null.

Supplied images must have square thumbnails, otherwise they will be silently skipped. See Upload media.

Repeating primaryImageHash value in secondaryImageHashes array will result in secondaryImageHashes's entry being silently dropped from supplied request array. Repeating secondaryImageHashes values will result in successfully saving the array as-is to the server, however official mobile client seems to drop repeating media when processing secondaryImageHashes response.

PUT /v3/me/profile/images

Body:

  • primaryImageHash — string or null
  • secondaryImageHashes — array of strings, max. length: 5 or null

Response:

Empty.

Delete profile photos

Requires Authorization.

This endpoint removes photo from your profile as well as deletes the media from CDN.

DELETE /v3/me/profile/images

Body (yes, body, not query):

  • media_hashes — array of strings

Response:

Empty.

Get my profile photos

Requires Authorization.

GET /v3.1/me/profile/images

Response:

NOTE

POST /v4/profiles/reachable

Body:

  • profileIds — array of strings with numeric ids

Response:
