Intro
Our enhanced API simulations allow you to replay games on your own schedule.
With the replayer, you can:
- Request a list of available recordings (by league)
- Register a session (starting a session allows the API to be replayed back in natural time specific to the session)
- Continually poll the endpoint for updates as one would during a live game
Authentication
This simulation does not require an API key or any authentication
Availability
Replay simulations are currently available for the following RESTful APIs:
- NFL
- NCAA Football
- MLB
Fetch Available Recordings
To see a list of available recordings the below graphQL endpoint can be used.
curl --location --request POST 'https://playback.sportradar.com/graphql' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data-raw '{"query":"query getRecordings($league: String){\n recordings(league: $league){\n id\n scheduled\n meta\n league\n start\n end\n title\n apis {\n name\n description\n formats\n }\n }\n}","variables":{"league":"nfl"}}'
The above query is specific to the NFL ("league":"nfl"). See here for other available leagues.

Register Your Session
Once you have selected a recording you wish to replay, you may start a session. Start a session using the id of the desired recording. At this point the specific feed - if multiple feeds are available - does not matter.
Recording Sample
{
"id": "50d7e8f3-a1ce-4fcf-bb15-f8a2ad919e34",
"scheduled": "2022-08-05T00:00:00.000Z",
"meta": {
"gameId": "fea8d7a1-f6bb-4fc7-9875-aec8899d9db2",
"away_team": "f7ddd7fa-0bae-4f90-bc8e-669e4d6cf2de",
"home_team": "7d4fcc64-9cb5-4d1b-8e75-8a906d1e1576",
"scheduled": "2022-08-05T00:00:00+00:00",
"away_team_name": "Jacksonville Jaguars",
"home_team_name": "Las Vegas Raiders"
},
"league": "nfl",
"start": 1659657512582,
"end": 1659675032985,
"title": "Hall of Fame Game (JAC at LV)",
"apis": [
{
"name": "boxscore",
"description": "game box score",
"formats": [
"json",
"xml"
]
},
{
"name": "pbp",
"description": "game play by play",
"formats": [
"json",
"xml"
]
},
{
"name": "game",
"description": "game statistics",
"formats": [
"json",
"xml"
]
},
{
"name": "rosters",
"description": "game rosters",
"formats": [
"json",
"xml"
]
}
]
}
The above recording includes Play-By-Play (pbp), Game Boxscore (boxscore), Game Roster (rosters), and Game Statistics (game) endpoints. All are available in json or xml.
Create a Session Id
Now, take the recordingId ("id": "50d7e8f3-a1ce-4fcf-bb15-f8a2ad919e34" in the above sample) and use it to create a sessionId.
curl --location --request POST 'https://playback.sportradar.com/graphql' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data-raw '{"query":"mutation CreateSession($input: CreateSessionInput!) {\n createSession(input: $input)\n }","variables":{"input":{"recordingId":"50d7e8f3-a1ce-4fcf-bb15-f8a2ad919e34"}}}'
In the above, recordingId is the id from the example response. This request will return your unique sessionId to be used in subsequent data API requests.
Session Id Sample Response
Here is a sample of a returned sessionId:
{"data":{"createSession":"60414140-53c7-11ed-bd68-ad2289887b03\_-5507944226"}}
Make an API Request
Now that you have your recordingId and sessionId you may create a RESTful API call for simulated games.
curl --location --request GET 'https://playback.sportradar.com/replay/nfl/50d7e8f3-a1ce-4fcf-bb15-f8a2ad919e34?feed=boxscore&contentType=json&sessionId=[sessionId]'
This sample is a Game Boxscore (boxscore) request for recordingId 50d7e8f3-a1ce-4fcf-bb15-f8a2ad919e34. Note that you will need to include your unique sessionid from the previous step.
To receive data updates you can now continually request this path, as you would with live game data in our RESTful APIs. See below for the complete path parameters.
