How market fields work

A market is a combination of type, metric, period, side, and line—not one bookmaker-specific label.

Availability depends on the bookmaker, sport, league, event, and time. Check the current event response before relying on a specific combination.

Betting markets FAQs

Market fields, filtering, availability, periods, and streaming.

How does odds-api represent betting markets?

Each odds row uses a normalized bet_type, metric, and period_str. Depending on the market, the row can also include side, line, player_name, selection_name, bookmaker, and freshness fields.

Can I filter an odds request by betting market?

Yes. Snapshot, history, and streaming endpoints support market filters where documented. Use the types filter for normalized bet_type values and market_keys for the available market keys returned by the API.

Does every bookmaker provide every betting market?

No. Market availability depends on the bookmaker, sport, league, event, and time. Check the current event snapshot or coverage catalogue before relying on a specific market.

Which player props does the API capture?

Current parser coverage contains 100 normalized player-prop metrics across scoring, basketball combinations, passing, receiving, rushing, baseball, AFL, rugby, soccer, tennis, and pick'em markets.

Are first-half, quarter, period, set, and innings markets included?

Yes. Current normalized period values cover full time, halves, quarters, hockey periods, tennis sets, individual baseball innings, and shortened innings windows where supplied.

Can betting-market prices be streamed?

Supported events can move from a REST snapshot to SSE or WebSocket updates. The same normalized market fields are retained across snapshots and streams.
