Prematch or live

oddsType selects between prematch and live odds. Omit it and you get prematch.

The two refresh at very different rates. Prematch odds update multiple times a day, live odds every ten minutes, so polling live odds faster than that spends quota without returning anything new.

Querying

At least one primary query parameter must be specified. timezone, limit, offset and oddsType are secondary and do not count on their own.

The most common approach is matchId. Alternatively use date with timezone to fetch all odds for a given day. leagueName, bookmakerId and bookmakerName narrow it further, and bookmaker ids come from bookmakers.

Supported markets

A complex market is split into multiple variants, so do not assume one entry per market.

How odds are grouped

Results in data are grouped by matchId. Each match holds an odds list, and every entry carries a bookmakerId, a type of prematch or live, a market and a values list of selections. bookmakerName may also be present.

A selection is a value label and an odd price, so a Home/Away market arrives with the values Home and Away.

If you only display one bookmaker, filter by bookmakerId when you request rather than after.
