FAQ

How often is the data updated? No delay in updates. Use @Changes to live events endpoint for real-time updates, or @Event last-change to detect changed data keys.

How do I calculate match times? Subtract the start time of the period from the current time. Match times are calculated client-side for most sports.

How do I get matches beyond 7 days?

• Historical matches (since 1990): /v1/tournaments/results
• Future matches: /v1/tournaments/fixtures
