This newspost is targeted at developers using ETF2L data in their plugins/bots/sites/apps. If you aren’t one, feel free to skip it.
We’re pleased to announce the open beta phase for our new API! It has been in development for quite a while and features a large number of improvements:
- Most information related to competitions, teams and players is now accessible via new API responses.
- Responses are more comprehensive and detailed.
- All common output formats are supported. (XML support is limited though)
- It is in active development and subject to improvement based on feedback.
Thanks to the initial feedback from a few developers, we believe most of the bugs have been ironed out and no more significant changes to existing responses are planned. We think the current version of the API is stable enough to be used and is unlikely to be broken by future additions – in the event that happens, we will inform you accordingly with the details of what was changed and how you need to change your access patterns.
Depending on developer feedback, the open beta will run for 1-3 months – after the V1 API is deemed stable, future updates will only add new responses and no longer change the existing structure.
You can find the new API and its documentation here: http://api.etf2l.org
The old API will remain available for up to 3 months after the beta period for the new API is over.
If you have feedback regarding the new API or would like to request a feature, please write an email to webmaster@etf2l.org or post a thread in the Feedback forum.
