But, we have an official API!
http://live.mobileapp.fifa.com/api/wc/matches http://live.mobileapp.fifa.com/api/wc/matches
More details on my last submission here on HN.
- dmn001 12y agoIs there any documentation for that api, from the url it looks that they created it specifically for their official mobile app only?
- thevlade 12y agoI haven't found any documentation and, indeed, it was created for their mobile app. What I have heard from a guy on Twitter is that if you get the number of the match then you can: http://live.mobileapp.fifa.com/api/wc/match/300186492/en http://live.mobileapp.fifa.com/api/wc/match/300186492/en Also if you put /blog at the end of that URL you get the latest news regarding that match.
- jameshart 12y agoT's and C's on FIFA's site are pretty clear: (i) FIFA Content 5.1 All FIFA Content, including FIFA feeds, is owned by, or licensed to, FIFA. FIFA Content is provided to You “AS IS” and may not be used, reproduced, distributed, transmitted, broadcast, displayed, sold, licensed or otherwise exploited for any other purposes than their access and usage on the FIFA Digital Platforms. For that sole and exclusive purpose, FIFA grants to You a limited, revocable, non-exclusive license to access and use the FIFA Digital Platforms privately for non-commercial purposes, in accordance with these Terms. "FIFA Digital Platforms" is defined as the website and their App. So... doesn't really sound like an "official API" in the sense of being something you could use to create your own world-cup data-based apps or web sites...
