    Error I already have access but I don't

    Hi all,

    I've been trying to download historical data for soccer from August 2023 to May 2024 which resulted in a 10kg tar file being downloaded.

    After reading other forum posts it suggests attempting to download one month at a time but because I already purchased the August 2023 to May 2024, I can't download any of the files.

    I want the match odds for Premier league season 2023-2024 for a university project. Is there anyway to filter for just this rather than downloading every single sock market?

    Thanks for any help.

    in 'historical data' (https://historicdata.betfair.com/#/home) select 'my data' (https://historicdata.betfair.com/#/mydata) then select your 'purchase' from the list and then filter it using the form on the right, hit 'add to downloads' etc...

      Thanks very much for taking the time to help.

      I have no idea what to do with all these individual files so I'll just take max odds from football-data and assume the Betfair exchange odds were fairly close to the max odds.

        the files can be opened in any text editor and scanned line by line to make some sense of before perhaps loading up into a programming language to do some analysis on... here's the best clues to what it all means https://historicdata.betfair.com/Bet...cification.pdf

          (also, chatGPT and perhaps other LLMs do a great job on these files, you can upload them and then ask it questions about the file!)
