Can wowup get addons from wowinterface?

Let me preface this by saying I would be happy to pay money to have a site do all this for me. Call it an anti-rewards program. I don't want money for posting my addons. I want to give other people money to maximize what limited time I have making addons and minimize my time dealing with posting them to as wide an audience as possible; if wowinterface is considering any new business model around that.

That said, can wowup get addons from wowinterface without entering a URL in the app?

This thread from a few months ago suggests no:
https://www.wowinterface.com/forums/...ad.php?t=59047

But the app has a checkbox for wowinterface that suggests yes:


But my addons aren't showing up which suggests no:


But I can see others from wowinterface which suggests yes:


I have seemingly used the api successfully:
Code:
curl -H "x-api-token:<my token>" -F "id=21993" -F "version=3.1.7" -F "compatible=9.2.0" -F "updatefile=@/mnt/c/users/public/games/world of warcraft/_retail_/interface/addons/BattlePetDailyTamer_3_1_7.zip" https://api.wowinterface.com/addons/update
But it remains unknown (second screenshot above; downgraded to an earlier version to see if it'd pick up a new version). Is wowup supported by wowinterface; and if so what secret sauce am I missing?

I think the issue is on Wowups end because they are using our undocumented minion api and your addons show up in Minion which uses the same api...

Elvenbane on official forums helped me out here. If anyone else runs across this thread in a search, the key is to have a X-WoWI-ID tag in your toc:
Code:
## X-WoWI-ID: 21993
After rescanning folders, wowup now recognizes it.
