ZKillboard (short: zkill) is a public killboard. That means it collects killmails and publishes them for everyone to read. The Eve Online community uses it for many purposes. Probably the most common purpose is to check how much was destroyed in a fight thus who the "winner" is. Further it is often used to gather intel and check out what fits people use.
For a killmail to be registered on zKillboard one of the entities that can access the killmail have to give zkill the right to access it in its name. A killmail is sent to the victim, the pilot who landed the killing blow, and their corps [1]. As zKillboard is the most popular killboard most corps or individuals do so. Because of this zKillboard isn't only important in its killboard function but also as a killmail database that can be accessed through an API.
zKillboard provides a search function. You can search and thus filter for
- character, corporation, and alliance names - ship types and classes - solar systems and regions. (But afaik not constellations.)
Where reasonable you can narrow down to kills, losses and solo.
Further it is possible to filter for certain categories. Known categories are: awox, ganked, ...?
Those kind of filters can be combined if you maniulate the url. Let say you want to know all Velator losses by the uni. You search for EVE University [E-UNI] and the result will have the url "https://zkillboard.com/corporation/917701062/" because 917701062 is the corresponding corp ID. The search for Velator results in the url "https://zkillboard.com/ship/606/" because 606 is the ship ID for the Velator. If you now combine those two urls to "https://zkillboard.com/corporation/917701062/ship/606/losses/" you will see all Velator losses by E-UNI.
- ^ really corp or is it alliance?
