Description

Hello!
When I try to import my build into Path of Building, it says my account is private—but it isn’t. I’ve checked and unchecked all the boxes in Path of Exile, yet it still doesn’t work. I’m not sure whether the problem lies with Path of Exile or Path of Building.

I’m on version 2.54.0, and I’m using my account name rather than my character name. I’ve also tried using the POESESSID number, but that doesn’t work either.

Research direction

Reproduce the account import failure described for Path of Exile accounts on Path of Building 2.54.0, using both an account name and a POESESSID. Trace the account-import request and its handling to determine whether the private-account response comes from Path of Exile or Path of Building; done means a valid public account imports successfully or the external limitation is documented.
