New On-Demand Simulations
We’re happy to announce expanded on-demand support for REST and push Simulations. This offering allows you to replay select games at your convenience. Leagues supported:
- Baseball - MLB
- Basketball - NBA, WNBA, NBA G League*, NCAAMB*, NCAAWB**
- Football - NCAAFB, NFL, UFL
- Hockey - NHL
*Push support coming this fall **Rest support only
How it works:
- Request a list of available recordings by league.
- For a normal GET game feed:
- Register a session for the game feed(s) you are interested in playing back.
- Start your session on your schedule – no more waiting for simulated games to start at a predefined time.
- Continually call the endpoint for updates as one would during a live game.
- For the Push feeds, simply subscribe to the recording and watch the data come through like it would during a live game.
- No API Key is needed to use the simulations.
- Please note that Legacy Simulations will be retired in early November.
For more details, see our Simulations page including code snippets for how to set up your calls.
