}About the unibet.com API
The Unibet API gives developers structured access to sports betting data across 9 endpoints, covering everything from live in-play scores to full betting markets for individual events. Use get_event_odds to retrieve all propositions and odds for a specific contest, or get_live_events to pull real-time scores and odds across every active sport simultaneously. The API covers football, tennis, basketball, ice hockey, golf, cricket, and more.
Sports Coverage and Navigation
The get_all_sports endpoint returns every sport available on Unibet as a structured list of objects, each with a displayName, key, contestCount, and linkUrl. This is the right starting point for discovering what sports are available before drilling into specific leagues. From there, get_sport_events accepts a lowercase sport parameter (e.g. football, ice_hockey) and returns a hierarchical breakdown of countries and leagues, each with a categoryRn value used as the league_rn input for subsequent calls.
League and Event Data
get_league_events takes a colon-separated league_rn (e.g. football:england:premier_league) and returns upcoming fixtures grouped by date, structured under quickBrowseItems. Individual event odds are retrieved via get_event_odds, which requires a 32-character hex contestKey obtained from responses like get_live_events, search_events, or get_sports_home. The view object returned by get_event_odds contains all propositions and betting markets for that contest. Note that contestKey values are ephemeral — they expire once the event concludes.
Live and In-Play Data
get_live_events returns all currently active in-play events across every sport, including live scores, match clocks, and current odds grouped by sport and contestGroups. For sport-specific live data, get_sport_live_events accepts a capitalized sport name (e.g. Football, Ice Hockey) and narrows the feed to that sport's categories and fixtures. Both endpoints return structured odds alongside score data, making them suitable for live monitoring applications.
Search and Homepage Widgets
search_events accepts a team or competition name query and returns matched participants with their upcoming contests and odds. Searches work best with team or competition names; individual athlete names may return empty results. The get_sports_home endpoint returns homepage widgets including MatchOfTheDay, QuickAccessNav, and PopularBetBuilder sections — useful for surfacing featured or high-traffic events without needing to specify a sport or league.

- Display featured matches and match-of-the-day content from get_sports_home for a sports news or betting news feed
- Implement a team or competition search feature using search_events to return upcoming fixtures and current odds
- Enumerate all available sports and their contest counts via get_all_sports for a dynamic navigation menu

Does Unibet offer an official public developer API?+
How do I get a contestKey to call get_event_odds?+
contestKey is a 32-character hex string returned in the relatedContests arrays or fixture objects from get_live_events, search_events, and get_sports_home. You must call one of those endpoints first to obtain a valid key, then pass it as the event_id parameter. Keys expire once the event ends, so they cannot be stored long-term.Does the API return historical odds or results for past events?+
What does get_sport_live_events return differently from get_live_events?+
get_live_events returns all active in-play events across every sport in a single response. get_sport_live_events filters that feed to one sport by accepting a capitalized sport name (e.g. Football, Ice Hockey) and returns only the matching categories array with contestGroups, live scores, and current odds for that sport.
