how do we get teams' scores from the ESPN API

@ARAnalytics-CFB

If anyone knows how to potentially automate the headshots and the years on the players into a google sheet that can link the players ESPN ID to their name, headshot, and year, let me know! Would be very cool for a project I am doing

Here's how I did it for golf. (Sheet is here -> https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1c6KxAFWjR7Ajg4WCn7uEa8eu55BMjprzbpom8n29IqM/edit?usp=sharing )

1 - 1 time population of the players with id, name, headshoturl into a new tab
2 - VLOOKUP using the =IMAGE() function pulling the headshoturl
3 - using the IFERROR function to point to the ESPN headshot silhouette if there's no headshot https://a.espncdn.com/i/headshots/golf/players/full/0.png

// Returns data from the ESPN API for headshots and IDs
function getAllPlayers(){
  // API error trapping
  options = {muteHttpExceptions: true}; 

  results = [];
  results.push(["ID","Name","Headshot", "Score", "Thru"]);

  var tournament = getTournamentId();
  var url = "https://site.web.api.espn.com/apis/site/v2/sports/golf/leaderboard?league=pga&event=" + tournament + "";
  
  // Hit the API, get the data 
  var json = UrlFetchApp.fetch(url, options).getContentText();
  var data = JSON.parse(json);

  var players = data['events'][0]['competitions'][0]['competitors'];

  // cycle through all the players in the field 
    for (var i = 0; i < players.length; i++) {
      var id = players[i]['id'];
      var name = players[i]['athlete']['displayName']
      var headshot = "https://a.espncdn.com/i/headshots/golf/players/full/" + id + ".png"
      var score = players[i]['score']['displayValue']
      var thru = players[i]['status']['thru']

    // push the game data to the result object 
      results.push([
          id,
          name,
          headshot,
          score,
          thru,
      ]);  
    }
  return results;

Greetings! I'm a current student enrolled in Berkley's coding extension program. Our current project involves developing an application with similarities to Fantasy Football. Within this application, my team and I are actively exploring methods to obtain an individual player's statistics for a specific week of the 2023 season. What would be the best method to obtain an individual player's stats on a per week basis.

Thank you. I think I Got it so | Event = game | then Get the Player ID of all available players on the roster for the Game/Event | Then get Statistics for those players to get Game total Stats.

I want to do this for every game played this season for a project of mine. Please let me know if this is possible or if anyone has created a similar project that I can reference.

Got it @nntrn, I feel like there might be room for error doing that. If I want to take a step back and get team Statistics for each game played this year, is that possible using this API? My end goal would be to have offensive, defensive, and special team statistics for each team this year on a game by game level.

@nntrn If I wanted to create a SQL database with all NFL data. Do you think these API should allow me to pull down all the necessary data I need or would you go another route? Just didn't want to waste my time learning about the API if it wasn't going to be useful.

this api link has everything for the article like the main body of text, videos and more

Output 
Nick Bosa is now the highest-paid non-quarterback in NFL history,
putting him among elite company in football ... and beyond.

The San Francisco 49ers and the reigning Defensive Player of the Year
agreed to a five-year, $170 million extension less than a week before
their season opener against the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Last season, Bosa earned his first All-Pro selection and third Pro Bowl
berth by posting a league-leading 18.5 sacks, 51 tackles, two forced
fumbles and 58 quarterback pressures (third in the NFL).

Bosa's deal, while big, is still more than $200 million short of the
active "Big Four" American sports record -- an honor held by the Los
Angeles Angels' Mike Trout. Here's how the contract stacks up with
others throughout sports.

MLB

Mike Trout, Los Angeles Angels: 12 years, $426.5 million

Year signed: 2019

Trout has been either the best player in baseball or close to it for the
better part of a decade, and the Angels rewarded him accordingly. At the
time he signed this deal, it was the richest contract in professional
American sports. Though he's been hampered by injuries, he's played 423
games and won the 2019 MVP since the signing.

Anyone know why this endpoint: [https://site.api.espn.com/apis/site/v2/sports/football/nfl/scoreboard?limit=1000&dates={year}] doesn't return any of the Thursday NFL games? As far as I can tell it returns all the scoreboards from the year including Sunday, Monday, and Saturday games but skips all of the Thursday games.

Follow up question, anyone know another way I can get all of the game_ids from the NFL games (where the Thursday games aren't being ignored)?

Thanks for the reply Ryan, I actually figured out the issue. It's not that the Thursday games are being skipped but rather the dates listed are in UTC time and therefore the date corresponding to the 'Thursday' games is actually Friday.

@mrmikeytj

Is there an endpoint to get related players for each play?

In the play by play link (https://cdn.espn.com/core/nfl/playbyplay?xhr=1&gameId=401437654), you can find all the plays for each drive.
Although, in each play, it doesn't really say which players were involved. A few years ago there was another section for each player involved.
This was in the nfl gameday json site that disappeared.

One of the first plays of the linked game above, has this:
{ "sequenceNumber": "5600", "period": { "number": 1 }, "homeScore": 0, "start": { "shortDownDistanceText": "1st & 10", "possessionText": "BUF 25", "downDistanceText": "1st & 10 at BUF 25", "distance": 10, "yardLine": 75, "team": { "id": "2" }, "down": 1, "yardsToEndzone": 75 }, "scoringPlay": false, "clock": { "displayValue": "15:00" }, "type": { "id": "24", "text": "Pass Reception", "abbreviation": "REC" }, "priority": false, "statYardage": 6, "awayScore": 0, "wallclock": "2022-09-09T00:24:04Z", "modified": "2022-09-14T21:05Z", "end": { "shortDownDistanceText": "2nd & 10", "possessionText": "BUF 31", "downDistanceText": "2nd & 10 at BUF 31", "distance": 10, "yardLine": 69, "team": { "id": "2" }, "down": 2, "yardsToEndzone": 69 }, "id": "40143765456", "text": "(15:00) (Shotgun) J.Allen pass short right to S.Diggs to BUF 31 for 6 yards (J.Ramsey)." },

Although, besides the last property (text), it doesn't say who threw the pass, who caught it, where it was caught, how many yards after catch, who tackled, who assisted the tackle, etc. I was hoping it had the player id, stat type id, yardage/stat, etc.

I have noticed the play id (40143765456)
Does this link into another end point somewhere?

@mrmikeytj
Copy link

Cloests thing I've been able to find is this: http://sports.core.api.espn.com/v2/sports/football/leagues/nfl/events/401437654/competitions/401437654/plays/40143765456?lang=en&region=us

It includes the stat type, and stat yardage:
"id": "40143765456", "sequenceNumber": "5600", "type": { "id": "24", "text": "Pass Reception", "abbreviation": "REC" },
... then a little farther down ...
"statYardage": 6

It also has a participants property.
It doesn't have a referenced player id as I had hoped, though it does have a player reference link:
It is confusing how it includes the athelete's game stat totals within the participants, instead of the totals for this specific play.

The player reference link has the player details:

So I'm left with these questions:

Why is the result of this play (6 yard pass reception) say this:
"downDistanceText": "2nd & 10 at BUF 31"

Anywhere I can find stat types like air yards? To know how far the ball traveled on an incomplete or completed pass?
Anywhere I can find stat types for offensive and defensive linemen? missed tackles? yards after catch?

Is there any way to get the season leaders for a team without fetching one of their games? I know there is a link listed, but it takes an extra api call for each player to get the data. Is there a more concise call? Thank you for all of this information by the way!

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?

you can run this script to build a local roster

$ curl -O https://github.com/nntrn/espn-wiki/blob/main/scripts/roster.sh

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/

@newadventure079

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

@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.
