placeOrders and Confirm=True

[Guest]

Hi when putting a bet on, I executed the code and noted that the bet came up in BetFair with the CONFIRM option down the bottom.

Here is code ..

Dim placeExecutionReport = client.placeOrders(marketId, customerRef, placeInstructions)

I assume in placeInstructions that we put the instruction in that we don't wish to confirm but couldn't see an option to set for this, unless I am missing something.


I know you can set up the Betfair settings (on the actual betfair webclient) to select NO confirm confirmation but I want to keep this and have my BetBot override this instruction.

Anyone point me in the right direction please

As far as I am aware, there is no flag that is set to ask for a confirmation. Indeed, I can't possibly see how this would work.

Bet confirmation is surely a UI decision - and therefore is nothing to do with the API (which is completely UI indepedent).

Ta mate - the bet I placed was a bet not matched as the odds were higher that what were being offered.

I will play a bit more.
