I have a workaround that makes FRCLinks still work, but unfortunately Excel will keep running into that HTTP Referer issue, since it tries to access the data directly at that https://my.usfirst.org URL that FRCLinks redirects to. |
So rather than actually provide an easy way for the community to get to the information, they've intentionally obscured it.
Dear Frank,
Please get your IT guys straightened out and provide a method for FIRST developers to get their info! Thanks,
All of FIRST
