What happens if a bookmaker suspends/removes a market or outcome?

Markets that have been suspended/removed are indicated as removed="true" at the book level.

Outcomes that have been suspended/removed are indicated by removed="true" at the outcome level.

Odds Availability

What is the refresh rate of the Live Odds data?

We check for changes to the data every 15-30 seconds.

Why do some outcomes show nonsensical odds?

If an outcome is flagged as removed="true" and is displaying decimal odds of 1.00, then the selection was never offered for betting by the bookmaker. This will often happen on "under" selections where the bookmaker does not want to offer the "under" side of the bet.

Mapping

Why would a player ID (ex. `sr:player:830531`) appear more than once in the Player Mappings endpoint?

A player may appear in multiple APIs with a separate ID unique to that API. For example, multiple ID mapping entries could occur from the American Football API to the NFL, NCAA Men’s Football, or USFL APIs.

Integration

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

What format are date fields presented in?

We use these for attributes that have date and no time (such as birthdate). 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
