Getting Started

Coverage

What leagues do you cover, and at what level?

Coverage information can be found via our Coverage Matrix.

How do I find out the coverage for a particular match?

Find the node called coverage_info in the Sport Event Timeline endpoint. The attribute live_coverage reports whether Sportradar has live coverage of the match or not.

How will a sport event behave when it is not covered with live scores?

When a sport_event is not covered live, the status and match_status will remain as not_started until results are entered post-match.

Why do different groups have coverage information for a tournament?

The notion of “groups” is versatile and is used to distinguish between playoffs, and our tournaments structures and is therefore necessary to describe coverage at a group level for consistency.

How long are timeline events available?

Dart-by-dart timeline events are retained in the Sport Event Timeline endpoint 6 months after a match has concluded.

<timeline>
    <event id="2171553174" type="match_info" time="2025-10-19T22:05:10+00:00" best_of_sets="1" best_of_legs="11"/>

How long are matches stored in the deleted/updated matches endpoints?

The deleted/updated matches endpoints will show sport events removed or updated in the last 2 weeks.

Integration

How can I find the values for various enum data points within the API?

Many enum values are listed in the FAQ below. For the most up-to-date values, please see the Schema section of the OpenAPI specification here.

What format are date fields presented in?

Date values are presented in the ISO 8601 standard format.

Timestamp fields are in UTC. These could include scheduled start times or play-by-play event timestamps. Examples: scheduled="2024-02-11T23:30:00+00:00", created_at="2024-02-11T23:43:20+00:00"

Date-only fields reflect local league convention and are not UTC-adjusted. These could include season start dates and birth dates. Examples: start_date="2024-08-16", date_of_birth="1984-09-22"

How do I locate the TTL (Time to Live)/cache on an API endpoint?

The cache (in seconds) can be accessed in the returned header information on each RESTful API call, under cache-control.

ex. cache-control: max-age=1, public, s-maxage=1 or
cache-control: public, must-revalidate, max-age=120

• interrupted - The match began, but coverage has stopped for a short time. Note that match scores may not be updated during this period; the last recorded match score will be displayed instead. Any interrupted match that remains in this status for more than 48 hours will receive limited coverage upon resumption; coverage up to the point of interruption remains at the level originally specified for the match.

Reference Data

Past Season Data

How do I access past seasons’ results and stats?

TournamentID and SeasonID are interchangeable. To access a previous season, first interrogate the tournaments/{tournamentID}/seasons endpoint to ascertain the required seasonID, then use that seasonID in place of the tournamentID for any of the following endpoints:

• tournaments/seasonID/results
• tournaments/seasonID/schedule
• tournaments/seasonID/teams/teamID/statistics
• tournaments/seasonID/standings

Season Behavior

Why is the displayed season end date a day late?

This is a measure to ensure that all matches in a season are contained within the season date range.

When will a season move from Seasons Disabled endpoint to the Competition Seasons endpoint?

A season will become active once the draw has been made and there is confirmation of the competitors and the 1st round schedule.

What competitions are available in Seasons Disabled endpoint?

PDC competitions will be available.

What does Mode Best Of represent in the Competition Information?

The Mode Best Of displayed represents the number of sets in a given event, not legs.

Standings / Tournaments

Here are the valid tournament types:

• group
• playoff

How are group IDs delivered in the stage array with the various types?

With the type of "league" they will have a sr:league prefix.
With the type of "cup" they will have a sr:cup prefix.
