League filtersport=basketball&league=NBA
Start with GET /v1/coverage?sport=basketball&league=NBA to build sportsbook and market filters. The event and odds responses determine what your product can display for a particular game.
Endpoints
The public API separates game discovery, game records, odds, and results. A stream sends changes after an initial snapshot.
| Need | Endpoint | What it returns |
|---|---|---|
| Current coverage | GET /v1/coverage?sport=basketball&league=NBA | NBA league, sportsbook, and approximate market coverage. |
| Games | GET /v1/events?league=NBA | Team names, tip-off times, canonical IDs, and pages of games. |
| Game record | GET /v1/events/{event_id} | The source game record under data. |
| Game result | GET /v1/events/{event_id}/results | pending or available, with the result record when present. |
| All game odds | GET /v1/events/{event_id}/odds/snapshot | Current rows across available sportsbooks, markets, and periods. Follow every next_cursor. |
| All game odds changes | GET /v1/events/{event_id}/odds/stream | SSE changes for that game's odds. WebSocket: /odds/ws. |
| Line movement | GET /v1/events/{event_id}/odds/history | Retained points for one selection_key and time range when history access is enabled. |
| NBA main lines | GET /v1/odds/main-lines/stream?leagues=NBA | A league-wide feed of main lines. It is a smaller view than every game market. |
Coverage
Request GET /v1/coverage?sport=basketball&league=NBA to build your league and sportsbook filters. The coverage response contains bookmakers, leagues, and approximate markets with an as_of timestamp. Use the canonical keys returned by GET /v1/bookmakers when filtering odds.
curl -sS -G 'https://api.odds-api.net/v1/coverage' \
--data-urlencode 'sport=basketball' \
--data-urlencode 'league=NBA'
The bookmakers field on an NBA event shows which sportsbooks are attached to that game. The event odds snapshot shows their current selections. For sportsbook-specific context, see DraftKings, FanDuel, BetMGM, and Bet365.
Events and results
Page /v1/events with sport=basketball and league=NBA. Set start_from and start_to as Unix seconds when you need live games as well as upcoming ones. Without start_from, the endpoint starts at the current time.
curl -sS -G 'https://api.odds-api.net/v1/events' \
-H "X-API-Key: $ODDS_API_KEY" \
--data-urlencode 'sport=basketball' \
--data-urlencode 'league=NBA' \
--data-urlencode 'limit=200'
Illustrative response. Use the returned IDs and times; these values are examples.
{
"count": 1,
"items": [
{
"away_team": "New York Knicks",
"bookmakers": {
"draftkings": null,
"fanduel": null

"home_team": "Boston Celtics",
"league": "NBA",
"sport": "basketball",
"start_time": 1792875600
}
],
"next_cursor": null
}
Pass next_cursor back as cursor with the same time filters until it is null. Use event_id for every follow-up request.
GET /v1/events/{event_id}The response contains event_id and a data object. Read the fields actually supplied for that game; the record can carry more source detail than the event list.
GET /v1/events/{event_id}/resultsThe result endpoint returns status as pending or available. An available response contains the result record. Poll it for scores; this endpoint is not an odds stream.
A game without a result record returns:
{
"event_id": "nba-example-001",
"result": null,
"status": "pending"
}
Odds snapshots
Leave bookmakers, types, market_keys, and periods out of the request. That returns all odds rows available to your account for the chosen game. price_fields=all includes the supported price fields; include_unavailable=true also returns suspended rows.
curl -sS -G 'https://api.odds-api.net/v1/events/$EVENT_ID/odds/snapshot' \
-H "X-API-Key: $ODDS_API_KEY" \
--data-urlencode 'limit=10000' \
--data-urlencode 'price_fields=all' \
--data-urlencode 'include_unavailable=true' \
--data-urlencode 'include_source=true'
Continue with the snapshot's next_cursor until it is null. Save the resume token from the first page before opening the stream, so changes during later pages can be replayed. Match stream changes by the odds-row id.

Markets
market_key identifies the normalized market in an odds row. Use market_keys in a query only when your product needs a subset. Keep period, line, side, and player_name when comparing two prices.
| American market name | API market keys | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Moneyline | moneyline |
Straight-up prices for each team to win the game. |
| Point spread | handicap |
Spread prices for both teams, including alternate lines where supplied. |
| Game total | total |
Over and under prices for the combined game score. |
| Team total | team total |
Over and under prices for each team's score. |
| Player scoring props | player pointsplayer threesplayer field goals |
Player points, made three-pointers and field-goal lines for covered NBA players. |
| Player stat props | player assistsplayer reboundsplayer blocksplayer stealsplayer turnovers |
Assists, rebounds, blocks, steals and turnovers for covered NBA players. |
| Combined player props | player praplayer prplayer paplayer rapickem player points |
Points-rebounds-assists combinations and pick'em player points when supplied. |
For example, a point spread uses the API key handicap. A game total uses total. Player points and player rebounds use their literal prop keys. The Python player props tutorial shows how to match exact prop selections across sportsbooks.
SSE and WebSocket
Open one odds stream for each NBA game you are tracking. Pass the snapshot's resume token as since, with the same price and availability options used for the snapshot. The stream returns changes, not another full odds list.

Discover games with /v1/events, then snapshot and stream each game. Repeat discovery to add newly scheduled games. This covers all markets offered through each event's odds endpoint.
Use /v1/odds/main-lines/snapshot?leagues=NBA and /v1/odds/main-lines/stream?leagues=NBA for a lighter NBA scoreboard. Main lines are a subset of the per-game markets.
delta: apply each change to the local odds row keyed by odd.id. Save the latest resume token.heartbeat: keep the connection open. It has no odds changes.resync: discard the local odds view, reload every snapshot page, then reopen the stream with the new token.since=<last_resume> and catchup=true. Back off after errors.The WebSocket route is /v1/events/{event_id}/odds/ws. It accepts the same query filters and sends JSON envelopes shaped as {"event":"delta","data":{...}}. Keep API keys on your server. Game discovery and results still use their REST endpoints.
For a line chart or audit, request /v1/events/{event_id}/odds/history with a selection_key from the snapshot and bounded ISO 8601 from_ts and to_ts values. The history stream follows one selection. Both history routes require history access; use the game snapshot and odds stream for current state.
Field dictionary
These fields are the pieces an NBA product needs to join games, compare the same bet, show current prices, and recover a live connection. Optional fields can be absent or null.
| Field | What it means |
|---|---|
event_id | The canonical game ID. Use it in the game, result, snapshot, and stream paths. |
sport / league | Use basketball and NBA to identify the league in event and coverage responses. |
home_team / away_team | The teams assigned to the home and away sides of this game. |
start_time | Scheduled tip-off as Unix seconds. Convert it to the viewer's time zone in your app. |
bookmakers | Sportsbooks attached to the event. The event list is a discovery hint; the odds snapshot contains the actual selections. |
| Field | What it means |
|---|---|
id | An odds-row ID. Use it to update a row when a stream delta arrives; treat its format as opaque. |
bookmaker | The canonical sportsbook key. Keep it when comparing prices across books. |
market_key | The exact normalized market key in an odds row. The market_keys query filter matches this value. |
bet_type | The normalized market family, such as moneyline, handicap, total, or player prop. |
period / period_str | Which game period the bet covers. Keep the period when matching selections. |
metric | The measured stat or scoring quantity when the market supplies one. |
line | The spread, total, or player-stat threshold. It is nullable and may be a string. |
side | The side of a market, such as home, away, over, or under. |
player_name | The player for a prop market, when present. |
selection_name | The display name of the offered selection, when present. |
selection_key | An optional normalized selection identity. Treat it as opaque and also compare period, line, player, and side. |
| Field | What it means |
|---|---|
odds | The sportsbook's decimal price. A value of 1.91 is about American -110; 2.05 is about +105. |
odds_no_vig | A nullable price with the sportsbook margin removed. |
fair_odds | A nullable composite fair-odds estimate. Request price_fields=all to include every supported price field. |
is_available | Whether the row is currently offered. Request include_unavailable=true when your product must track suspensions. |
as_of_ts_ms | Snapshot freshness time in Unix milliseconds. It applies to the snapshot, not the game's tip-off. |
ttl_seconds | The snapshot cache lifetime when supplied. Show age rather than presenting stale odds as current. |
next_cursor | The next page token. Continue until it is null for both event lists and odds snapshots. |
resume / since | Pass the snapshot resume token as the stream's since parameter, then persist the latest delta resume token. |
The API provides sportsbook player-prop lines, including points and rebounds. It does not expose a separate player box-score statistics feed.
Production
| Response or state | What to do |
|---|---|
| No NBA events | Keep the selected time window visible. An empty page means no games matched that request; widen the window or wait for another slate. |
| No odds rows | Keep the game record. Odds can be posted later, and a specific sportsbook or prop may have no rows. |
status=pending | The result record is not ready. Poll the game result endpoint separately from the odds stream. |
Old as_of_ts_ms | Show the snapshot age in your product and reload rather than presenting a stale price as current. |
| 401 or 403 | Check the server-side API key and whether the account has event odds access. See plans. |
| 429 or stream disconnect | Back off and reconnect with the last resume token. Respect rate-limit headers when present. |
resync | Reload all snapshot pages before opening a new stream. The older changes cannot safely be replayed. |
Keep ODDS_API_KEY on your server. Use the API reference for current response codes and parameter limits, and status and support when an endpoint is unavailable.
Python example
The Python example pages a rolling NBA schedule, requests game records and results, loads every odds snapshot page, and opens a stream for each game. It writes JSON Lines, so another process can consume the complete records. Set a suitable discovery window and connection budget for your product.
python -m pip install httpx
export ODDS_API_KEY='your_api_key'
python nba_full_feed.py
Save nba_full_feed.py and run it from your server. Set NBA_PAST_HOURS and NBA_FUTURE_HOURS to change the rolling game window. Set ODDS_API_BASE_URL for a different API environment.
"""Discover NBA games, load every available odds row, and follow each game.
Install: python -m pip install httpx
Run: ODDS_API_KEY=your_key python nba_full_feed.py
The program writes JSON Lines to stdout. Set NBA_PAST_HOURS and
NBA_FUTURE_HOURS to change the rolling discovery window.

Reference
The parameter lists come from the current public OpenAPI document. The full API reference contains response schemas and other sports routes.
/v1/coverageReturns public bookmaker, sport, league, and recently observed market coverage. Market records are approximate and based on normalized odds lines seen in the configured lookback window, not a guarantee that every market is available for every event at request time.
bookmakerCanonical bookmaker filter. Use `/bookmakers` or `/coverage` to discover supported keys.
sportSport filter. Use `/sports` to discover supported values.
leagueLeague filter. Use `/leagues?sport=...` to discover supported values.
country_codeComma-separated country code filter, for example `AU` or `AU,UK`.
lookback_daysNumber of days of recently observed approximate market coverage to include. Maximum is 90.
/v1/bookmakersLists active bookmakers accepted by bookmaker filters across odds and betting endpoints. Each item includes the country codes where that bookmaker is available. Pass `country_code=AU` or `country_code=AU,UK` to filter the catalog.
country_codeComma-separated country code filter, for example `AU` or `AU,UK`.
/v1/eventsSearches sports events by sport, league, team, time window, status, bookmaker coverage, and pagination cursor. For production polling, use bounded time windows, keep filters stable across pages, and pass `next_cursor` back as `cursor` until there is no next cursor. For live discovery start with `/v1/events/live`; `event_states=in_play` returns only events with a fresh live observation and adds a `hint` when started but unconfirmed events were excluded. Every item has a plain `live_status`.
sportSport filter. Use `/sports` to discover supported values.
leagueLeague filter. Use `/leagues?sport=...` to discover supported values.
start_fromUnix seconds lower bound for event start time. Use bounded windows in production polling.
start_toUnix seconds upper bound for event start time. Keep windows narrow for hot sync jobs.
cursorPagination cursor from the previous `next_cursor`. Keep filters identical between pages.
limitMaximum items to return. Respect the caps returned by `/limits`.
include_bookmaker_idsWhen true, include bookmaker-to-odds-data IDs and preview ID maps on event responses.
include_sourceWhen true, include per-line/per-bookmaker provenance and capture metadata. Top-level freshness fields are always kept.
include_opportunity_countsnot_started_onlynot_started_buffer_secondsevent_statesLifecycle filter. Requesting in_play automatically applies the live lookback window.
live_candidatesInclude already-started events that remain candidates for live play; this is not confirmation of current play.
/v1/events/{event_id}Returns the current event record for a canonical sports event ID.
event_idrequiredCanonical event or race identifier from an event list response.
include_linksWhen true, include bookmaker/deep-link fields such as match links and racing links.
include_raw_payloadWhen true, include raw stored payload/data objects where the endpoint exposes them.
include_sourceWhen true, include per-line/per-bookmaker provenance and capture metadata. Top-level freshness fields are always kept.
include_bookmaker_idsWhen true, include bookmaker-to-odds-data IDs and preview ID maps on event responses.
include_debug_idsWhen true, include internal/subgroup/opposing IDs useful for reconciliation.
/v1/events/{event_id}/resultsReturns the latest known result for a sports event, or `pending` until settled. Poll every 1-5 minutes after start, then back off once the event is final.
event_idrequiredCanonical event or race identifier from an event list response.
/v1/events/{event_id}/odds/snapshotReturns the current odds lines for one event. Use filters to narrow bookmakers, market types, market keys, and periods. An explicit `bookmakers` filter returns every matching line for those bookmakers in one response, up to the 25,000-item safety cap. Without a bookmaker filter, pages contain whole bookmakers, so a bookmaker's matching markets are never split across pages. Follow the opaque `next_cursor` until `complete=true`. Cache by request shape. `as_of_ts_ms` is when the API accepted the latest successful event snapshot or authoritative bookmaker subset; use `bookmaker_as_of_ts_ms` for bookmaker-specific freshness and compare it with `target_refresh_interval_seconds`. Respect `ttl_seconds` when present, and persist `resume` when you plan to subscribe to updates. Pass `price_fields=odds,fair` to include nullable composite fair odds alongside bookmaker odds. Exchange orderbooks are excluded from this sportsbook-style odds surface.
event_idrequiredCanonical event or race identifier from an event list response.
limitSoft item target when `bookmakers` is omitted. Pages contain whole bookmakers and may exceed this target. With an explicit bookmaker filter, all matching lines are returned up to the 25,000-item safety cap.
cursorOpaque bookmaker-page cursor from the previous `next_cursor`. Use only when `bookmakers` is omitted and keep all filters identical between pages.
bookmakersComma-separated bookmaker allow-list. Explicitly requested bookmakers are returned complete in one response, up to the 25,000-item safety cap. Use `/bookmakers` to discover supported keys.
typesComma-separated market type allow-list for odds filters.
market_keysComma-separated market key allow-list for odds filters.
periodsComma-separated period allow-list for odds filters.
price_fields`odds`, `odds,novig`, `odds,fair`, or `all`. Compact clients default to `odds`; existing clients default to current full pricing fields.
include_sourceWhen true, include per-line/per-bookmaker provenance and capture metadata. Top-level freshness fields are always kept.
include_debug_idsWhen true, include internal/subgroup/opposing IDs useful for reconciliation.
include_unavailableWhen true, include unavailable or suspended rows where the endpoint supports them.
/v1/events/{event_id}/odds/streamServer-Sent Events feed for odds changes on one event. Subscribe after reading the snapshot and pass the snapshot `resume` value as `since` to receive catch-up changes when available. Handle ordered semantic `delta` batches idempotently and persist each batch's `resume`; a `heartbeat` carries current freshness even when prices did not change. Reload the snapshot after `resync`. Exchange orderbook changes are served only from the exchange orderbook stream.
event_idrequiredCanonical event or race identifier from an event list response.
bookmakersComma-separated bookmaker allow-list. Use `/bookmakers` to discover supported keys.
typesComma-separated market type allow-list for odds filters.
market_keysComma-separated market key allow-list for odds filters.
periodsComma-separated period allow-list for odds filters.
price_fields`odds`, `odds,novig`, `odds,fair`, or `all`. Compact clients default to `odds`; existing clients default to current full pricing fields.
include_sourceWhen true, include per-line/per-bookmaker provenance and capture metadata. Top-level freshness fields are always kept.
include_debug_idsWhen true, include internal/subgroup/opposing IDs useful for reconciliation.
include_unavailableWhen true, include unavailable or suspended rows where the endpoint supports them.
sinceResume token from a previous snapshot or stream message. Pass it after reconnecting.
catchupWhen true, return available missed stream events after `since` before waiting for new events.
heartbeat_secHeartbeat interval in seconds for stream liveness. Valid range is 5-120.
max_batchMaximum stream messages to read per batch. Default is 500; use smaller batches for low-latency clients.
/v1/events/{event_id}/odds/wsWebSocket feed for odds changes on one event. Messages use the same `delta`, `heartbeat`, and `resync` payloads as the SSE stream. Reconnect with jittered exponential backoff and `since=<last_resume>`.
event_idrequiredCanonical event or race identifier from an event list response.
bookmakersComma-separated bookmaker allow-list. Use `/bookmakers` to discover supported keys.
typesComma-separated market type allow-list for odds filters.
market_keysComma-separated market key allow-list for odds filters.
periodsComma-separated period allow-list for odds filters.
price_fields`odds`, `odds,novig`, `odds,fair`, or `all`. Compact clients default to `odds`; existing clients default to current full pricing fields.
include_sourceWhen true, include per-line/per-bookmaker provenance and capture metadata. Top-level freshness fields are always kept.
include_debug_idsWhen true, include internal/subgroup/opposing IDs useful for reconciliation.
include_unavailableWhen true, include unavailable or suspended rows where the endpoint supports them.
sinceResume token from a previous snapshot or stream message. Pass it after reconnecting.
catchupWhen true, return available missed stream events after `since` before waiting for new events.
heartbeat_secHeartbeat interval in seconds for stream liveness. Valid range is 5-120.
max_batchMaximum stream messages to read per batch. Default is 500; use smaller batches for low-latency clients.
/v1/events/{event_id}/odds/historyReturns line movement for a single selection across bookmakers and a time range. Use `selection_key` from an odds snapshot response, bound queries with `from_ts` and `to_ts`, and narrow by bookmaker or market when building charts or backtests.
event_idrequiredCanonical event or race identifier from an event list response.
selection_keyrequiredStable selection identifier from an odds snapshot line, used for history and line movement.
market_group_idOptional market grouping filter for history queries.
bookmakersComma-separated bookmaker allow-list. Use `/bookmakers` to discover supported keys.
from_tsISO8601 UTC start timestamp for a bounded history query.
to_tsISO8601 UTC end timestamp for a bounded history query.
price_typeHistory price type to return, for example odds.
price_fields`odds`, `odds,novig`, `odds,fair`, or `all`. Compact clients default to `odds`; existing clients default to current full pricing fields.
include_sourceWhen true, include per-line/per-bookmaker provenance and capture metadata. Top-level freshness fields are always kept.
include_debug_idsWhen true, include internal/subgroup/opposing IDs useful for reconciliation.
include_unavailableWhen true, include unavailable or suspended rows where the endpoint supports them.
limit_points_per_bookmakerMaximum history points per bookmaker. Use this to keep chart/backtest payloads bounded.
/v1/events/{event_id}/odds/history/streamServer-Sent Events feed for line movement on one selection. This is useful for charts that should update while an event market is moving.
