Got it working after I posted that. Turned out to be mojang’s API was down that day for several hours. Probably having to do with the 1.16 release and stuff or something. Works great. Using it to put bans up on our website! ——— Kat

Well I just tested, the script is working fine: <?php require 'mc-api.php'; $uuid = 'e9464e86-daf1-4414-900b-2b08e8710459'; $name = uuid_to_username($uuid); var_dump($name); Maybe it's your host? I heard some hosting services like OVH are often blocked by Mojang's API, due to too many requests made by the same host. — You are receiving this because you commented.
