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: https://api.sportradar.com/floorball/trial/v2/openapi/swagger/index.html


What format are date fields presented in?

When we present date only values we present these in the ISO 8601 standard format.

ex: 2013-04-03

We use these for attributes that have date and no time (such as birthdate). For more information: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_8601


What format are the date/time fields presented in?

All of our Date/Time attributes are in UTC, presented in the ISO 8601 standard format.

ex: 2013-04-03T18:15:00+00:00

For more information: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_8601


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


How can I tell if an endpoint is paginated?

To determine if a RESTful API endpoint uses pagination, visit the endpoint's page on our developer portal, its OpenAPI specification, or check the X-Result and X-Max-Results headers in the API response.

  • X-Result: This header indicates the number of items returned for this request.
  • X-Max-Results: This header specifies the total number of items available for a specified request.

If both headers are present and the response data is truncated (i.e., X-Result value is less than X-Max-Results), you can infer that pagination is in use. To fetch the remaining data, make use of the limit and start (or offset) query string parameters.

In the below Season Summary response, the header specifies 100 sports events are returned (x-result), but 381 sport events are available (x-max-results). Make an additional API request – such as appending &start=100 to the end of your call – to obtain additional events.
