# Google Sports

`POST /v1/google/sports`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://api.prismcrawl.com`
- URL: `https://api.prismcrawl.com/v1/google/sports`
- Auth: API key in header `x-api-key`

Retrieve Google Sports using its native source data.

## Request body

- CatalogGoogleSportsRequest: Retrieve Google Sports using its native source data.
  - `query` string: Text to search for on the selected service. At most 8,192 UTF-8 bytes.
  - `country` string: Two-letter country or storefront code, such as us or gb.
  - `language` string: Provider-supported language code, such as en.
  - `device` 'desktop' | 'mobile' | 'tablet': Device presentation for the source request.
  - `html` boolean: Return the encoded original response rather than parsed JSON.
  - `zero_trace` boolean: Do not archive source or parsed response artifacts.
  - `kgmid` string: Google entity ID for a league, team or game. Use with sp and type; replaces query.
  - `sp` 'ft' | 'bs' | 'bb' | 'cr' | 'af' | 'ih' | 'rg': Sport: football, basketball, baseball, cricket, American football, ice hockey or rugby.
  - `type` 'league' | 'team' | 'game': Selected sports entity type.
  - `tab` 'gm' | 'sn' | 'pl' | 'br' | 'st' | 'rn' | 'ov': Games, standings, players, brackets, statistics, rankings or American football game overview. Availability depends on the selected entity.
  - `season_kgmid` string: A source-advertised season ID for standings.
  - `mpd` string: Middle time of the returned games window. ISO8601 UTC: YYYY-MM-DDTHH:mm:ssZ.
  - `moa` string: Earliest requested games time. ISO8601 UTC: YYYY-MM-DDTHH:mm:ssZ.
  - `mob` string: Latest requested games time. ISO8601 UTC: YYYY-MM-DDTHH:mm:ssZ.
  - `output` 'json' | 'html' | 'md' | 'null', nullable: Response content format. md returns Markdown in data.content with data.format=md; the JSON success/request envelope remains. Accept: text/markdown also selects Markdown unless output or html=true is explicit. html is an alias for html=true and retains the existing Brotli/Base64 source format.
  - `json_restrictor` string, nullable: Select fields within data.content for JSON or Markdown. Supports comma-separated paths, non-negative array indices, half-open slices [0:3] (either bound may be omitted), [] and .{nested,subqueries}. Up to128 selections and16 levels. Missing fields are omitted; selected declared fields retain their zero defaults. The request envelope and credit headers remain. Include next_page_token when pagination is needed. Incompatible with HTML output. This changes response presentation only; tracing-enabled history retains the complete JSON result.
  - `no_cache` boolean, nullable: Accepted for compatibility. Searches are always fetched without a result cache for either value; normal successful-request billing applies.

## Response `200`

Request completed. One credit is charged, including recognized empty or unavailable source results and source inventory changes discovered after a valid continuation is fetched. These completed responses may preserve verified partial results; operational failures remain errors.

When rewrite_links is true, already-resolved opaque Google anchor links use their destination URLs. Unresolved links are preserved.

## Other responses

- `400`: The JSON body, source selection, or continuation is invalid. Locally malformed, forged, expired, or mismatched tokens are rejected before source work and require restarting pagination. A source may also reject an otherwise well-formed selector after acquisition. These errors do not spend a search credit. Source inventory changes discovered during a valid request return a completed response instead.
- `401`: The API token is missing, invalid, expired, or revoked.
- `402`: No credits remain.
- `429`: Account rate limit exceeded.
- `500`: The request could not be completed.
