API Data Dictionary - Brackets

Event Brackets

The brackets endpoint contains the brackets information for one particular event. It is used in events where there is a necessity to know in advance how successive event units will be filled as the competition progresses. In the early stages of the competition, it indicates how each of the event units will be built from the winners/losers, or other competition rules of the previous event units. This endpoint will update at the very beginning of a competition, as soon as brackets are available to us. It will then update after every event in the preliminaries which determines a position in the bracket and after every event during final phases.

Example of a event bracket element.
