Step 3. Get familiar with the ScoutsFeed dashboard.

This is ScoutsFeed control center. Here you can find all available options. You can book the events available for your package, set autobooking for competitions you want to receive, check the reports, archive or documentation.

IMPORTANT! To receive any kind of data you need to book an event in the first place. This is a green basket icon on the right side of the event name. So find an interesting event and then book it!

You can also book the event with API call. All the details how to book the event with our API you can find here: Booking events via API

 

Step 4. Data Collection.
There are 3 ways of collecting data from the event. Trader View,  API or  AMQP  queue. 

 

  • Trader view is a visual view of the match. All the information you need is here, from the most important incidents and statistics to the minor ones. This is a perfectly tailored tool for a trader to monitor the feed once offering an event for live betting. TraderView is adjusted to different widths to increase your comfort of work. The following documentation describes the appearance of a full-size view. It is accessible after you book a game.

  • The API service is based on the REST architecture and supports a number of resources accessed with HTTP protocol. The client should send an HTTP GET request and in return will receive a return list document in JSON format. API support multiple simultaneous requests from authenticated customers. 


Example:

  1. Token Generator

https://api-spa.statscore.com/v2/oauth?client_id=your_id&secret_key=secret_key

  1. Available events:

https://api.statscore.com/v2/events?token=TOKEN&scoutsfeed=yes&events_details=yes&competitions_details=yes

  1. Booked events: 

https://api.statscore.com/v2/booked-events?client_id=YOUR_ID&product=scoutsfeed 

  1. Feed from the specific event:

https://api.statscore.com/v2/feed/5375132?token=TOKEN - if you will book a game with id 5375132 (Gulf Giants - Dubai Capitals) you can get real-time API data in this endpoint.

Here you can check how this data looks in example:

  • The AMQP service sends the messages to the customer's queue. The communication is done by sending messages in JSON format. The AMQP server is based on RabbitMQ: 

Client Documentation | RabbitMQ . For receiving the real-time messages customers should establish a connection with the AMQP server. If you want to use AMQP service you need to send me your IP first so I can set up a queue for you.

To get any data you need to book the event first. Please start with booking the event and then explore the data you are getting.
