API Integration Options

Option A: REST API Integration

// Initialize client
const client = new AltSportsDataClient({
  apiKey: process.env.ALTSportsData_API_KEY,
  environment: 'production'
});
 
// Get available leagues
const leagues = await client.leagues.list({
  sport: 'football',           // Optional filter
  tier: 'premium',             // Optional filter
  limit: 50,
  include_assessments: true
});
 
console.log(`${leagues.length} leagues available`);

Option B: Webhook Integration

// Register for real-time updates
await client.webhooks.register({
  url: 'https://your-sportsbook.com/webhooks/altsports',
  events: [
    'league.new',              // New league available
    'league.updated',          // League data updated
    'assessment.complete',     // New assessment available
    'integration.ready'        // League ready for integration
  ]
});

Option C: Batch Processing

// Process multiple leagues
const leagues = await client.leagues.list({ limit: 100 });
const batchPromises = leagues.map(async (league) => {
  // Evaluate league for your platform
  const compatibility = await assessCompatibility(league);
 
  if (compatibility.score > 0.8) {
    // Auto-integrate high-compatibility leagues
    return await client.leagues.integrate(league.id, {
      betting_markets: compatibility.markets,
      odds_format: 'american',
      real_time_updates: true
    });
  }
});
 
const results = await Promise.all(batchPromises);
console.log(`${results.filter(r => r.success).length} leagues integrated`);

Data Pipeline Setup

Real-time Data Feeds:

// Set up real-time event feeds
const eventStream = client.events.subscribe({
  leagues: ['world-sevens', 'urban-basketball'],
  event_types: ['match_start', 'score_update', 'match_end'],
  include_odds: true
});
 
eventStream.on('event', (event) => {
  // Update betting markets in real-time
  updateBettingMarket(event);
  recalculateOdds(event);
});

Historical Data Import:

// Bulk import historical league data
const historicalData = await client.leagues.getHistoricalData({
  league_id: 'world-sevens',
  seasons: ['2022', '2023', '2024'],
  include_player_stats: true,
  include_team_stats: true
});
 
// Process and integrate into your system
await importHistoricalData(historicalData);

Phase 3: League Selection & Integration (1-2 weeks per league)

Browse League Catalog

// Get comprehensive league catalog
const catalog = await client.leagues.catalog({
  filters: {
    sport: ['football', 'basketball'],
    tier: ['premium', 'professional'],
    revenue_potential: 'high',
    compliance_status: 'verified'
  },
  sort: 'revenue_projection',
  limit: 20
});
 
// Display league options
catalog.forEach(league => {
  console.log(`
${league.name} (${league.tier})
Revenue Projection: $${league.revenue_projection.toLocaleString()}/year
Assessment Score: ${league.assessment_score}/100
Sportsbook Compatibility: ${league.compatibility_score}/100
  `);
});

League Assessment Review

// Get detailed league assessment
const assessment = await client.leagues.getAssessment('world-sevens');
 
console.log('Assessment Results:');
console.log(`- Data Quality: ${assessment.scores.data_quality}/100`);
console.log(`- API Readiness: ${assessment.scores.api_readiness}/100`);
console.log(`- Market Viability: ${assessment.scores.market_viability}/100`);
console.log(`- Operational Readiness: ${assessment.scores.operational_readiness}/100`);
console.log(`- Compliance: ${assessment.scores.compliance}/100`);
 
console.log(`Tier: ${assessment.tier}`);
console.log(`Revenue Projection: $${assessment.revenue_projection.toLocaleString()}`);

Integration Execution

const status = await client.integrations.getStatus(integration.pipeline_id);
 
console.log(`Status: ${status.stage}`);
console.log(`Progress: ${status.progress_percentage}%`);
console.log(`Next Steps: ${status.next_actions.join(', ')}`);
 
// Launch when ready
if (status.stage === 'ready_for_launch') {
  await client.integrations.launch(integration.pipeline_id);
  console.log('League integration launched successfully!');
}

Performance Monitoring

// Set up performance tracking
const metrics = await client.analytics.getMetrics({
  league_id: 'world-sevens',
  timeframe: '30d',
  metrics: [
    'betting_volume',
    'revenue_generated',
    'user_engagement',
