Integration Examples

Python

from apify_client import ApifyClient

client = ApifyClient("YOUR_API_TOKEN")
run = client.actor("your-username/draftkings-sportsbook-odds").call(
    run_input={
        "leagues": ["NBA", "NFL"],
        "marketTypes": ["moneyline", "spread"],
        "maxEvents": 50
    }
)

# Get results
for item in client.dataset(run["defaultDatasetId"]).iterate_items():
    print(f"{item['name']}: {len(item['markets'])} markets")

JavaScript

import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

const client = new ApifyClient({ token: 'YOUR_API_TOKEN' });

const run = await client.actor('your-username/draftkings-sportsbook-odds').call({
    leagues: ['NBA', 'NFL'],
    marketTypes: ['moneyline', 'spread'],
    maxEvents: 50
});

const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
items.forEach(event => {
    console.log(`${event.name}: ${event.markets.length} markets`);
});
