### Data Package Contents
A data package is a JSON object which may contain arbitrary metadata to enable a client to interact with the Archipelago server most easily. Currently, this package is used to send ID to name mappings so that clients need not maintain their own mappings.
A data package is a JSON object which may contain arbitrary metadata to enable a client to interact with the Archipelago
server most easily and not maintain their own mappings. Some contents include:
We encourage clients to cache the data package they receive on disk, or otherwise not tied to a session. You will know when your cache is outdated if the [RoomInfo](#RoomInfo) packet or the datapackage itself denote a different version. A special case is datapackage version 0, where it is expected the package is custom and should not be cached.
- Name to ID mappings for items and locations.
- A checksum of each game's data package for clients to tell if a cached package is invalid.
Note:
* Any ID is unique to its type across AP: Item 56 only exists once and Location 56 only exists once.
* Any Name is unique to its type across its own Game only: Single Arrow can exist in two games.
* The IDs from the game "Archipelago" may be used in any other game.
Especially Location ID -1: Cheat Console and -2: Server (typically Remote Start Inventory)
We encourage clients to cache the data package they receive on disk, or otherwise not tied to a session. You will know
when your cache is outdated if the [RoomInfo](#RoomInfo) packet or the datapackage itself denote a different checksum
than any locally cached ones.
**Important Notes about IDs and Names**:
* IDs ≤ 0 are reserved for "Archipelago" and should not be used by other world implementations.
* The IDs from the game "Archipelago" (in `worlds/generic`) may be used in any world.
* Especially Location ID `-1`: `Cheat Console` and `-2`: `Server` (typically Remote Start Inventory)
* Any names and IDs are only unique in its own world data package, but different games may reuse these names or IDs.
* At runtime, you will need to look up the game of the player to know which item or location ID/Name to lookup in the
data package. This can be easily achieved by reviewing the `slot_info` for a particular player ID prior to lookup.
* For example, a data package like this is valid (Some properties such as `checksum` were omitted):
```json

"games": {
"Game A": {
"location_name_to_id": {
"Boss Chest": 40
