Stats API

Feature RequestGeneral

Problem: Most communities in WiS have user supported tools for generating custom reporting. I can speak specifically for SimLeague Basketball where we have custom stats dashboard, league histories, automated score tracking for theme leagues, etc. Most of these relies on either screen scraping tools or importxml/importhtml nonsense from Sheets/Excel. This creates a lot of limitations, throttling and constantly breaks with subtle UI changes.

Idea: Expose APIs we could hit - could tie to our user credentials to prevent abuse - to pull league/game/team specific stats to support improved user created content.

    Yes! This is a great idea and something I have thought about. Unfortunately currently mostly everything is server side rendered so there is no API for even us to use. We are going to be creating one for multiple reasons and we will keep the user facing API idea in the front of our mind.

      That is awesome to hear you are already thinking about it Jordan.
