This might be a noob question, I'm fairly new to programming, but I'm trying to setup a search function to pull player profile information (i.e name, headshot, age, number, team), the only issue being that for the search to work as I've set it up I can't just search "Ryan Tannehill" and get that information, I need to search using their player id, which isn't intuitive for users.

https://sports.core.api.espn.com/v2/sports/football/leagues/nfl/athletes https://sports.core.api.espn.com/v2/sports/football/leagues/nfl/athletes/14876

Is it a situation where I'm better of having a local file that has all the key: value pairings e.g. { "Ryan Tannehill" : 14876 } or is there a better way to do this?

alternatively, I just used @nntrn 's script to build a python function to reverse lookup the player id by their name. You can find the documentation here: https://github.com/mattabets/espn_api_player_id_reverse_lookup/blob/main/README.md

There's another endpoint for the pickem challenges that I've used
https://fantasy.espn.com/apis/v1/challenges/'+game_type+'-'+year+'/members/
In 2023, it didn't require auth.

In 2024, it has changed to the below and now requires auth
https://gambit-api.fantasy.espn.com/apis/v1/challenges/'+game_type+'-'+year+'/members/

To include the credentials (cookies) for auth, I added

xhrFields: {
    withCredentials: true
},
crossDomain: true

to the call

Does anyone know of a way to tell if a user has submitted their picks for the week in the pickem challenges?

You used to be able to click on their name and it'd tell you if they have submitted their picks or not but I believe during the site redesign a few years ago, espn removed that feature.

Has anyone figured out how to get College Football weeks? https://site.api.espn.com/apis/common/v3/sports/football/college-football/seasons gives all seasons from 1872 to 2024 which I only need a single season. I tried adding ?season=2024, ?year=2024 with no luck. You can do https://site.api.espn.com/apis/common/v3/sports/football/college-football/seasons/2024 to get the 2024 season, but it doesn't give the weeks, even doing ?seasonType=2 doesn't.

@newadventure079
Copy link

Using the first url, after you get the data, you should be able to reference what you want to get by doing something like
const season2024 = data.seasons.find(season => season.year === 2024);

@JamesSingleton
Copy link

@newadventure079 yea that is true I could do that... But I was trying to avoid having to get a massive payload (I guess not that massive as it's 8.3 kB). I do find it interesting that /seasons will give the breakdown of the weeks, but /seasons/2024 won't

@newadventure079

The API is a big black box lol

@JamesSingleton
Copy link

@newadventure079 yea... I am building a College Football Top 25 voting system for my website and I don't want to have to hardcode the weeks into my API routes, so that is why I was looking at using the API endpoint. I also noticed for ESPN, they classify Week 1 as 8/24-9/3 but that includes Week 0 and Week 1, I found that interesting.

@nntrn Thanks you for this. I'll take a look at it when the season starts. It might only show the picks they made after the game starts tho.

What I'm trying to solve for is knowing if a user has made their picks for the week before kickoff. Before the site redesign a few years ago, you used to be able to view a person's profile and it'd say something like "User X has not submitted their picks for this week". Now that message isn't shown. We have a lot of people in our group that forget to make their picks and miss out.

This list is a great resource. Does anyone know how to get the career stats for a player? I found https://sports.core.api.espn.com/v2/sports/football/leagues/nfl/athletes/2576336/statisticslog, for example, to get links to each season but there doesn't seem to be a way to get career stats unless I download each year's stats and add them up myself.

What happens if we exceed 2500 calls per day? Do we get our IP banned for good? Or do responses just not work after that for the day?

You'll receive an error on the next calls until your quota resets. I don't think it's as cut and dry as 2500 per day. I think there are restrictions on frequency too. I've had errors come back saying I've hit a limit and then waited an hour or two to rerun successfully.

The APIs are not supported so I think the 2500 number is a guess.

I appreciate your input and experience! Thanks for helping me.
In your opinion if I was attempting to generate some live-play-by-play data, and of course would be pulling up to 16 games on any given Sunday depending on the date of the game, what frequency do you think would be wise to go under the block-radar? 5 minutes? 3 minutes?

I realize this is your best guess and won't hold you to anything!!

Thanks man!
Here is an updated list of play_type_ids I have found so far in preseason and verified.
(Some of the abbreviations are not verified as some of them do not carry abbreviations so I use my own. Also, espn uses the full word "abbreviation" not "abv")

But the numbers on the indexes as the play_type_id are verified for these:

"PLAY_TYPE_IDS" => [ 2 => ["text" => "End Period", "abv" => "EP"], 3 => ["text" => "Pass Incompletion", "abv" => "Pass Inc"], 5 => ["text" => "Rush", "abv" => "RUSH"], 7 => ["text" => "Sack", "abv" => "SACK"], 8 => ["text" => "Penalty", "abv" => "PEN"], 9 => ["text" => "Fumble Recovery (Own)", "abv" => "Fumble Rec (Own)"], 12 => ["text" => "Kickoff Return (Offense)", "abv" => "KOR"], 16 => ["text" => "Two Point Rush", "abv" => "Two Point Rush"], 21 => ["text" => "Timeout", "abv" => "TO"], 24 => ["text" => "Pass Reception", "abv" => "REC"], 26 => ["text" => "Pass Interception Return", "abv" => "INTR"], 29 => ["text" => "Fumble Recovery (Opponent)", "abv" => "Fumble Rec (Opp)"], 36 => ["text" => "Interception Return Touchdown", "abv" => "TD"], 40 => ["text" => "Missed Field Goal Return", "abv" => "AFG"], 52 => ["text" => "Punt", "abv" => "PUNT"], 53 => ["text" => "Kickoff", "abv" => "K"], 59 => ["text" => "Field Goal Good", "abv" => "FG"], 60 => ["text" => "Field Goal Missed", "abv" => "FG Miss"], 61 => ["text" => "Extra Point Good", "abv" => "Extra Point Good", "value" => 1], 65 => ["text" => "End of Half", "abv" => "EH"], 66 => ["text" => "End of Game", "abv" => "EG"], 67 => ["text" => "Passing Touchdown", "abv" => "TD"], 68 => ["text" => "Rushing Touchdown", "abv" => "TD"], 70 => ["text" => "Coin Toss", "abv" => "CT"], 74 => ["text" => "Official Timeout", "abv" => "Off TO"], 75 => ["text" => "Two-minute warning", "abv" => "2Min Warn"] ],

Does ESPN use a different API call for their schedule (eg https://www.espn.com/college-football/schedule) page vs scoreboard (eg https://www.espn.com/college-football/scoreboard) page? What the heck is the difference in those pages anyways ?

What I really want is all college football games by week. When I enter the week, I only get top 25 (ie http://site.api.espn.com/apis/site/v2/sports/football/college-football/scoreboard?week=4) but if I enter exact date I get all the games (ie http://site.api.espn.com/apis/site/v2/sports/football/college-football/scoreboard?dates=20240907)

try adding:

&groups=80

to the end of your path.
80 is the "group" or "conference" designation for "FBS", or all the FBS games.

Here's a list of all the "group" or "conference" IDs:
Default = Top 25
80 = FBS (I-A)
81 = FCS (I-AA)
1 = ACC
4 = Big 12
5 = Big Ten
8 = SEC
9 = Pac 12
12 = CUSA
15 = MAC
17 = Mountain West
18 = FBS Indep
20 = Big Sky
21 = MVFC
22 = Ivy
24 = MEAC
25 = NEC
27 = Patriot
28 = Pioneer
29 = Southern
30 = Southland
31 = SWAC
32 = FCS Indep.
35 = DIV II/III
37 = Sun Belt
48 = CAA
151 = American
177 = UAC
179 = BIg South-0VC

So this path for example:
https://site.api.espn.com/apis/site/v2/sports/football/college-football/scoreboard?week=2&groups=80
returns all the FBS games for week 2

and this path:
https://site.api.espn.com/apis/site/v2/sports/football/college-football/scoreboard?week=2&groups=5
returns all the Big Ten games for week 2

Here is the list I have compiled of the play_type_id's (which are my index numbers in the array, with the text and abbreviation for espn's play by play feeds.

If the value is null, it means I have not found and confirmed a play with that number play_type_id yet.

I have imported and digested all the 2023 season and searched through it fully.
I am working on other past seasons to try and fill in the gaps.

Does anyone know if this endpoint updates live during the games if an injury occurs?

https://site.api.espn.com/apis/site/v2/sports/football/nfl/teams/14/roster

Or if there is an endpoint that does indeed update live during the game upon injury?

I noticed for Cooper Kupp on Sunday evening on the roster end point above, his injuries object did have him as Doubtful and did have a time that was around 5:46pm so that would represent a mid-game date/time update. But I was not watching the feed as the game happened and was curious if that is the date/time assigned to the update and possibly put there at a later time, or if that is the actual date/time assigned to the update as it appeared in the endpoint's data feed. So at 5:46pm and after, calling the endpoint above would indeed list Kupp as Doubtful from that point on.

Because if you call that end point now, it will give the date and time associated with McVay's presser when he gave the update about him, so it does not archive the "initial time of injury" in a super user-friendly way to recall later.

What I am trying to accomplish is to assign the most accurate game-clock times to injuries and just looking for the most direct path to get there.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

I have a scoreboard feed for each game mapping the game-clocks to wall-clock times, so I think if I can just get a wall clock time for each injury occurence I can get there.
