The Events API allows access to all event resources which includes event listings, entries and result information.
The Events API provides all event related data
The Events API is comprised of the following underlying resources:
- Events - data related to the event itself including specific event information, related media and medal tallies.
- Programs - data related to programs (or races) at an event such as course information and atmospheric conditions (which vary between programs at the same event)
- Entries - data relating to the entries of a specific program (start lists and wait lists)
- Results - data relating to the results of a specific program
In a nutshell, entry and result data belong to a program and each program belongs to an event. There can be many entries and results per program and many programs per event. For more information with working with the Events API please consult the Getting Started with the Events API guide.
Each of the resources has it's own defined type as listed below.
