2026

​
July 2026

  • Self-service downgrades — You can now schedule a plan downgrade from your dashboard. Downgrades take effect at the end of the current billing period — you keep your current tier until then, nothing extra is charged, and a scheduled downgrade can be canceled any time before it applies.
  • Sportsbook source IDs — V2 event responses now include affiliate_source_ids (each sportsbook’s own identifier for the event), and price objects include source_id where the book exposes one. Useful for deep-linking and joining against sportsbook-keyed datasets.
  • NFL Preseason and NBA Summer League — 2026 NFL Preseason events now flow under a dedicated sport ID 25, separate from the NFL regular season (2). NBA Summer League is live again under sport ID 32, as in previous seasons.

​
June 2026

  • Live game state and play-by-play — Ultra tier and above — New real-time game-state data, available exclusively on Ultra plans and higher. Live event payloads embed a live_game_state snapshot (current inning/quarter, balls-strikes-outs and base runners for MLB, down & distance for football, possession and power-play detail for other sports), and the new GET /api/v2/events/{eventID}/plays endpoint returns the full play-by-play timeline with running scores. Plays also stream in real time via the new plays channel on the V2 WebSocket. Coverage spans MLB, NBA (including Summer League), WNBA, NCAAB, NFL, NCAAF, NHL, and soccer, with per-play player attribution rolling out progressively.
  • Included data points raised 2.5x on all paid tiers — Monthly allowances increased at no price change: Starter 5M, Pro 25M, Ultra 100M, Super 250M, Mega 500M, Max 2.5B data points per month. Overage rates, burst limits, and data delays are unchanged.
  • Weekly billing plans — Every paid API tier is now available on a weekly billing cadence at a premium over monthly — useful for covering a single tournament or a stretch of a season. Weekly plans include a proportional weekly share of the tier’s monthly allowance, metered over the 7-day billing window; the X-Datapoints-Period header reads weekly on these plans. See Weekly Billing.
  • Player props now require Starter or higher — Player prop markets are included on all paid plans starting at Starter, and are no longer returned on Free keys.
  • event_status include filter — New query parameter on V1 and V2 sport/date event, openers, and closing endpoints. Pass event_status=STATUS_IN_PROGRESS,STATUS_HALFTIME (comma-separated) to receive only events in the listed statuses. Complements exclude_status, and is applied before it when both are present.
  • market_ids capped at 12 per request — REST market endpoints now return a 400 when more than 12 market IDs are requested (previously extra IDs were silently ignored). Split larger requests into batches of 12, or omit the parameter: odds endpoints default to the core markets, and market-definition endpoints return all available definitions.
  • 3-Way Result (563) in default markets for soccer and NHL — Soccer leagues and NHL now default market_ids to 1,2,3,563. The soccer 3-way moneyline (home/draw/away) is served on market 1 as three participants, matching long-standing V1 behavior; market 563 carries the NHL 60-minute (regulation-time) line.
  • is_main_line on the markets delta feed — Delta entries now always include is_main_line, so main-line switches can be tracked from the delta feed alone without refetching snapshots.
  • Upgrade hints on 429 responses — Rate-limit and data-point-cap responses now include upgrade_url and upgrade_message fields alongside the existing error, limit, and Retry-After information.
  • Affiliate status field — The GET /api/v2/affiliates (and /api/v2/sportsbooks) response now includes a status for each sportsbook: healthy (live and verified), unhealthy (the feed is currently degraded or down), or beta (a new integration whose coverage we are still verifying). Use it to surface book health in your UI or to skip beta books in production. Treat unrecognized values as unknown — new statuses may be added without notice, so don’t hard-code the set on the client side.
  • Affiliate regions now opt-in — GET /api/v2/affiliates returns the regions array only when you pass include=regions. The default response omits it; add the parameter if your integration reads region data.
  • FIFA World Cup 2026 coverage — Broad market coverage for the World Cup (sport ID 18) across tracked sportsbooks, including 1X2, asian handicap, totals and first-half totals, both-teams-to-score, correct score, winning margin, goalscorer props, corners, and cards.

​
May 2026

  • ATP and WTA Tennis leagues — Added ATP Tennis (sport ID 38) and WTA Tennis (sport ID 39) as first-class leagues. Full-match tennis markets use full-game periods (0 prematch, 7 live); set-specific markets use period IDs to distinguish Set 1 and Set 2, including prematch Set 1/Set 2 (3/4) and live Set 1/Set 2 (15/16).
  • Hard Rock Bet affiliate — Hard Rock Bet is now available as affiliate ID 28 in beta, with coverage across NBA, WNBA, MLB, NHL, NFL, soccer, tennis, and UFC including player props and live markets. Coverage is expanding while the integration matures.
  • espn_uid on V2 events — Event payloads now include espn_uid, ESPN’s universal identifier for the event, when available — useful for joining against ESPN-keyed datasets. Event stats responses also now include meta.event_id for easier correlation.

​
April 2026

  • theScore Bet affiliate — theScore Bet is now available as affiliate ID 24, providing moneyline, spread/runline/puckline, and total markets for NBA, MLB, and NHL (prematch and live). Expanded coverage of additional supported markets is in progress.
  • In-play coverage for LowVig, BetOnline, and Sportsbetting — LowVig (11), BetOnline (6), and Sportsbetting (4) now stream live in-play lines across the V2 market catalog, including player props, team props, and alternate lines. Additional market coverage for these books is in progress.

​
March 2026

  • Live market variants now default — V2 event endpoints now return live moneyline, spread, and total (IDs 41, 42, 43) alongside the standard prematch markets by default. Integrations that pass explicit market_ids are unaffected.
  • Faster live score updates — Live score data now reflects in-game changes much faster. The score object on event responses — including event_status, display_clock, game_period, and current scores — updates more frequently during live games.
  • Ultra tier latency improvements — Ultra tier subscribers now receive WebSocket price updates in real time with no batching delay. REST endpoints for Ultra tier also return fresher data.

​
February 2026

  • exclude_status parameter — New query parameter for V1 and V2 event endpoints. Pass exclude_status=STATUS_POSTPONED,STATUS_CANCELED (comma-separated) to filter out postponed and canceled games before they reach your application.
  • delta_last_id bootstrap — V2 markets responses now include meta.delta_last_id, a starting cursor for delta polling. Use it to initialize /api/v2/markets/delta immediately after a snapshot without missing updates.
  • Subscription plan headers — V2 responses now include headers that surface your subscription tier, rate limits, allowed bookmaker IDs, and active feature flags. Useful for building adaptive clients and debugging plan entitlements.
  • Retry-After headers on rate limit responses — All 429 Too Many Requests responses now include a Retry-After header indicating when you may retry.
  • MLB Spring Training migration — MLB Spring Training events have been migrated from sport ID 3 to a dedicated sport ID 30, isolating preseason games from the regular season. This follows the same pattern used for NBA Summer League (32) and other season-specific sport IDs. If you consume spring training data, update your integration to query sport ID 30.
  • OpenAPI spec published — Full OpenAPI 3.1 specification now available for automated client generation and tooling integration.
  • Market 553 deprecated — use market 410 — The any_time_goal_scorer market (ID 553) has been consolidated into the to_score market (ID 410). Market ID 553 will no longer return data. Update integrations that query market 553 to use market 410 instead.

​
January 2026

  • V2 Markets WebSocket — New wss://therundown.io/api/v2/ws/markets endpoint for real-time market and price updates, replacing the legacy V1 WebSocket. Supports granular filtering by sport, market, event, and affiliate.
  • price_delta field — Pass include=price_delta on V2 event endpoints to receive the previous price and direction of change alongside current odds. Useful for animating line movement on page load.
  • live_variant_id field — Market objects now include a live_variant_id mapping prematch markets to their live equivalents, enabling seamless prematch-to-live market switching.

​

​

  • Player prop markets expansion — Added combo prop markets: PRA (93), Points + Assists (99), Points + Rebounds (297), Rebounds + Assists (298). Added live player prop markets for points (90), assists (91), three-pointers (92), rebounds (982), blocks (983), and turnovers (984).
  • Market line price history — New GET /api/v2/events/{eventID}/markets/history and GET /api/v2/events/{eventID}/markets/{marketID}/history endpoints for full price history with RFC 3339 time range filtering. Opening and closing line endpoints added at /openers and /closing.

​

  • V2 markets delta endpoint — GET /api/v2/markets/delta returns only markets that have changed, providing a more efficient alternative to full event polling.
  • Team totals market — Market ID 94 added for individual team over/under totals.
  • Kalshi affiliate — Added Kalshi (affiliate ID 25) to tracked sportsbooks.

​
Q2 2025

  • V2 API general availability — The V2 market-based data model is now the recommended API version. V1 remains available but new features are V2-only.
  • Alternate lines support — V2 events endpoint returns main and alternate lines. Use main_line=true to filter to primary lines only.
  • Period-based markets — Markets now include period_id for half, quarter, and period-specific odds.
