C# VS2012 Web Reference to API

Hi,

I am trying to connect to the betfair API using C# and VS2012 and this address:

https://api.betfair.com/global/v3/BFGlobalService.wsdl

I have successfully done this for another gambling exchange with no problem at all.

When I try and add the web reference VS tells me it is not found. When I put it in a browser, same thing (logged in or not logged in to betfair).

Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong?! Thanks

NB: I have recently downloaded some sample code from this forum. I can see the web references added, if I update them I receive the same message I see when trying to add one myself (HTTP: 401 gone)

placeOrder operation on API

September 14, 2015, 4:30 pm

Hello,

I noticed that the placeOrder operation requires a marketID. This tells me that the function needs to be called separately for each market that we want to bet on. This would slow down my bot. Is it possible to bet on multiple markets with one call to the operation?

On a separate note, is it possible to put multiple orders on the same market with one call to the function? If I can see a sample code for that, it would be very helpful.

Thank you.

Creating another APP KEY by accident...

What happens when someone tries to use the createDeveloperAppKeys for a second time?

Does this over-write the original key or is the user prevented from creating another key?

I don't want to try it in case it messes things up. I need to know for someone I am coding for.

Thanks.

Finding venue name using market ID

Evening all

Apologies for my ignorance, but I'm having a bit of newbie trouble - I'm filtering only on horse racing

I have the following code:

Code:
var marketFilter = new MarketFilter();

                var eventTypes = client.listEventTypes(marketFilter);
             
                ISet<string> eventypeIds = new HashSet<string>();
                foreach (EventTypeResult eventType in eventTypes)
                {
                    if (eventType.EventType.Name.Equals("Horse Racing"))
                    {
                        eventypeIds.Add(eventType.EventType.Id);
                    }
                }
                var time = new TimeRange();
                time.From = DateTime.Now;
                time.To = DateTime.Now.AddDays(1);

                marketFilter = new MarketFilter();
                marketFilter.EventTypeIds = eventypeIds;
                marketFilter.MarketStartTime = time;
                marketFilter.MarketCountries = new HashSet<string>() { "GB" };
                marketFilter.MarketTypeCodes = new HashSet<String>() { "WIN" };

                var marketSort = MarketSort.FIRST_TO_START;
                var maxResults = "1";

                //as an example we requested runner metadata
                ISet<MarketProjection> marketProjections = new HashSet<MarketProjection>();
                marketProjections.Add(MarketProjection.RUNNER_METADATA);


                Console.WriteLine("\nGetting the next available horse racing market");

                var marketCatalogues = client.listMarketCatalogue(marketFilter, marketProjections, marketSort, maxResults);
                String marketId = marketCatalogues[0].MarketId;
                var marketInfo = marketCatalogues.FirstOrDefault(x => x.MarketId == marketId);
                return test = marketInfo.Event.Venue + " - " + marketInfo.MarketName ;
However, Event.Venue is always null.

How would I go about getting the venue name using the market ID? If someone can explain to me the error of my ways, I'd be most grateful.

Wouldn't it be great if BF worked all the time, even when the Royals were asleep:

Nearly every day I great crappy drop outs about 12 - 4pm Aust time - I guess in BF land the team are asleep and the servers are having a rest, or getting backed up or who knows what - meanwhile, we are working and betting - or trying to - I tried to upload an image of my error report, but the upload service was out 'having a bevvy'.

I am paying you guys in com cant we get some reliability.

And B4 you ask, I bet into markets (totes/systems/pari ms etc) all around the world so I dont have time to report back the
exact error that you guys are having - just make it work - 'Please' :)

Navigation Data

Has anyone tried extracting the Navigation Data as outlined here: Navigation Data for Applications?

I've managed to successfully make a call to the address and get the response back, but it takes a long time to return - something like 20 seconds just to get the raw Json back on a fast internet connection.

I can't think of a way to make the call more efficient - there doesn't appear to be a way to filter it.

Am I missing something? I can use the Market Navigation but the Navigation Data seemed convenient.

Hey guys,
I am trying to place an order via the API but receive a message that some of the required parameters is missing.
Here is what I send:
Quote:
{'params': {'instructions': [{'orderType': 'LIMIT', 'selectionId': 4030151.0, 'side': 'BACK', 'limitOrder': {'persistenceType': 'LAPSE', 'price': 100.5, 'size': 3.0}}], 'marketId': 1.120831103}, 'jsonrpc': '2.0', 'method': 'SportsAPING/v1.0/placeOrders', 'id': 1}
And here is the response:
Quote:
{u'jsonrpc': u'2.0', u'id': 1, u'error': {u'message': u'DSC-0018', u'code': -32602}}
As far the docs about placeOrder tell, I filled out the required fields.

What do I miss?

Thanks alot in advance!

Hi,

I am trying to find out which round the "Tennis Game" belongs in the Tournament.

I have tried "ListMarketCatalogue" but it doesn't contain this information.

Is there anything that says "MenuPath" or "Event Hierarchy"?


Here is the original query
I am trying to retrieve "Navigation Data for Applications" Download. I have found the documentation below.

https://api.developer.betfair.com/se...r+Applications

Can someone please help me write a "VBA" version of the "Input Statement" that I can send through using Excel?

I am familiar with the codes such as
{"jsonrpc": "2.0", "method": "SportsAPING/v1.0/listMarketBook", "params": {"marketIds":["1.113421376"],"orderProjection":"EXECUTABLE","EXECUTION_COMPLET E", "matchProjection":"ROLLED_UP_BY_PRICE"}, "id": 1}

However, this documentation is kind of confusing. What is "Accept", what is "Connection", why are we using X-Application: instead of "App Key"

Any help or guidance to get my started will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Hello

I am very new to the betfair api. So far i've had some success in getting the information I need. However I have reached a stumbling block!

I googled around for a way to find out a list of "market types". For example PLACE or WIN market. This forum directed me to this page:

https://api.developer.betfair.com/se...istMarketTypes

This implies that there is a function somewhere inside of the C# API which I can use to find this information out. However, The code located here:

https://github.com/betfair/API-NG-sa...sample-code/TO

Which I have used as my "API. Does not contain this function.

What am I missing?

Hi,

I am using Navigation Data for Applications.

Is it possible to apply a filter to this? Currently, it is returning a string truncated down to 4,692,730 characters. (I am using VBA Excel)

I would like a method to help me get beyond the 4.6m characters or alternatively filter my query (By Match odds) or by Sport Type ID.

My codes are as follows

xhr.Send Data
SendMarketNavigationRequest = xhr.Responsetext
MsgBox Len(SendMarketNavigationRequest)

xhr.Responsetext is too long!

Many Thanks in advance.
