Tennis score API - who serves?

[walp]

Hi

is there a way to get info on who serves during a tennis game?
If not, any chance this could be added on the roadmap?

Hi Walter,

The server information is provided via the Tennis Scores API.

Neil, it is not for listScores

Yes, in listIncidents, server is included, I tested that, have a look at attached video.

Hi bfexplorer.

Yes, thats expected, listIncidents provides the server information (& other incidents) but listScores does not. Both operations are part of the Tennis Scores API.

Thanks

Neil, that is really great answer I will remember that and anytime my client tell me about bug I will reply: "thats expected". Have a look at on score panel on any match plaid on tennis court, you can see there scores and who is scoring, as that is base data, the panel provides about tennis match.

Ok, I can live with that, and actually did so when couple years back I implemented tennis lives score to my app, but as you can see newcomers to api just look for base behaviour/data in api.

Well yes, walp when spending more time working with api, will find that for base tennis score data listScores is useless as it covers only atp/wta matches so will use web site undocumented api for that. Of course for trading strategies required all data we use only listIncidents api method.

Thanks all for the input.
Eventually yes, listIncidents is great and what I need. Now I am wondering if there is a way to download the data historically too similar to market data?

Go through my blog to get some inspiration.

Hi Guys,

I would need the server in tennis games, too.
Is there any change in the method getting who is serving since 2019?

After reading the old posts I tried to find the listIncidents in Betfair documentation under Betting API, but no success.
Is listIncidents still available?

Thank you in advance!
All the best!
