11. HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO INTEGRATE THIS SOLUTION?
As shocking as it sounds, it shouldn't take more than a few hours on our side. On client's side, it just involves placing two elements into the source of the website, a small HTML and a JavaScript code. If the client wants special customization we will need to estimate how long it will take, it depends on the customization level, but even then it should not make the integration process much longer.

12. DO I NEED YOUR IDENTIFIERS TO PLACE THE VISUALIZATION?
You can use both - YOURS and STATSCORE's identifiers in the placement scripts. You can set the type of used Identifiers by parameter: data-use-mapped-id.

13. HOW DO I FIND YOUR EVENT IDENTIFIERS?
In the administration panel: https://backoffice.statscore.com/livescorepro/admin/pmc/events there is information about the ID of each event booked. We also provide a JSON feed in our API, from which you can get the identifiers based on your event ID. The method is called: booked-events.index.

14. HOW TO USE SPORTSAPI - BOOKED-EVENTS.INDEX METHOD?
The API method: booked-events.index shows a list of all events available for the client. Please note the list could be paginated.

Example: https://api.statscore.com/v2/booked-events.xml?product=prematchcenter&events_details=no&client_id=X

In the above example:
X - should be replaced by your individual client identifier (client ID)

STATSCORE EVENT ID
In the returned data you will find your event ID in the field "client_event_id". STATSCORE EVENT ID is placed in the corresponding field "id".
JSON example: [{"id":2107848,"client_event_id":"345397"}]
Detailed information about the method (output elements, possible filters etc.) is included in proper section of this documentation.

15. HOW TO FIND SINGLE EVENT ID WHEN I GOT MY EVENT IDENTIFIER?
When STATSCORE events offer is mapped with the clients events identifiers you can use booked-events.index method to find your event.
You should use query parameters: client_id and client_event_id to find the event you want.

Example: https://api.statscore.com/v2/booked-events.xml?product=prematchcenter&client_id=X&client_event_id=Y

In the above example:
X - should be replaced by your individual client identifier (client ID)
Y - should be replaced by your event identifier (event ID)

Please note: if the event is not mapped with STATSCORE ID then you will get empty <data/> node.

17. WHAT ARE THE TRACKER CONFIGURATION PARAMETERS?
The list below explains the parameters of the Tracker (Tracker placeholder script).

id – it's a unique identifier for the Tracker on your website (in your DOM).
You can display a few different Trackers at once, but each of them should have a unique id.
data-event – STATSCORE's unique identifier for the event (match). It should be a numeric value.
data-config – unique identifier of the client's configuration.
This value is given by STATSCORE to customers. You can have many configurations for the PrematchPro Tracker. By default, STATSCORE prepares one configuration for each customer.
data-lang – sets the language in which the LivematchPro Tracker will be generated. The default value is "en" (English).
data-zone – optional parameter to set timezone. If set, then the event start date will be converted to the proper time for selected timezone.
If timezone parameter isn't set or is set as an empty value (time zone='') then the timezone will be automatically detected by the system.
