Football API reference

Every football endpoint of the KeepTheScore API, with its parameters, request body and responses, generated from the live API.

Keys, tokens, request bodies and rate limits are explained in the API guide. In the paths below, {token} is a board token when you send an API key, or one of the board's own tokens without one.

This page is generated from the live API. The same reference is available as OpenAPI 3 at /apispec.json, if you'd rather generate a client than read tables.
