Advanced data packageWorld Cup packageactivebetacoreAvailable

Description

Returns the past squads for the given team id (suggested rate: up to 60 requests/min)

Access

Request
GET https://api.sports.csap.ai/api/v1/teams/squads/history
Auth
Header X-API-Key: <your key> (Authorization: Bearer <key> also works; ?key= is still accepted but discouraged, because the key ends up in URLs and logs)
External keys
AvailableAny valid API key can call this endpoint.
Rate limits
3000 per minute · 200000 per day · Set per key (rate_per_min and quota_daily returned by /api/v1/account are authoritative; the numbers above are a trial key's). Beyond them the answer is 429. In addition, heavy requests such as whole-table snapshots and statistics lists without a match id are processed 2 at a time for the whole platform; a request that cannot get a slot receives 429 with Retry-After. Responses do not carry X-RateLimit-* headers for now. See the general guide
