• site_live_novibet.sample.json — one live soccer, basketball and tennis event
• site_pregame_novibet_soccer.sample.json — trimmed to a few events

Each download is a complete GET /v1/data/{filename} response cut down to a few events, with every id reference still resolving. All samples are listed in samples/index.json.

Extract match-result (1X2) odds in Python

This function is tested against the samples on this page. Pass it the parsed JSON response.

def match_result(payload):
    """(event, 1, X, 2) rows from a Novibet file (live or pre-match)."""
    rows = []
    for view in (payload["data"] or [{}])[0].get("betViews", []):
        # pre-match views list `items`; the live file nests events under competitions
        events = view.get("items") or [e for c in view.get("competitions", []) for e in c["events"]]
        for ev in events:
            teams = ev.get("additionalCaptions") or {}
            name = f'{teams.get("competitor1")} - {teams.get("competitor2")}'
            for market in ev.get("markets", []):
                if market["betTypeSysname"] == "SOCCER_MATCH_RESULT":
                    odds = {b["code"]: b["price"] for b in market["betItems"]}
                    rows.append((name, odds.get("1"), odds.get("X"), odds.get("2")))
    return rows

Through a marketplace

On RapidAPI, Zyla API Hub or JoJ API you call the marketplace's gateway with that marketplace's key. The two endpoints and the JSON they return are the same; copy the base URL and path from the listing.

Freshness, gaps and caveats

• Refresh: live files about every 1–3 s, pre-match files about every 4–7 s. Every response carries updated_at and a Last-Modified header; send If-Modified-Since to get 304 Not Modified when nothing changed.
• The live file has no start times — events are already in play.
• Market names live in betViews[].marketCaptions (e.g. SOCCER_MATCH_RESULT → "Full Time Result"); each market only carries its betTypeSysname.
• Over/under items carry code O / U and the line in instanceCaption (e.g. 3.5).
