Sing up to our Pateron to get a production API key or use the test key "1"

Developers may use the "1" API key when building the app, you do not need a separate key until you actually release something in public.

Commercial software and larger users are expected to join our patreon campaign. https://www.patreon.com/thedatadb

I guess I won't need a key as this is personal so I can just use 1.

Hi, how are you? I hope so.
I am a student of computer science and I am developing a soccer application would it be possible for me to use your api to get some information about the teams? How would this procedure be?
I do not intend to charge for the app just add ads.
Thank you in advance.

Seems we got 300 users signing up for API keys recently which used up all our keys

I have created some more, it should work now.

Hello.

I applied for an API key 2 weeks ago and it only seems to work for some APIs.

For example, "all_sports.php" returns a 404, but "lookupteam.php" & "searchplayers.php" work just fine.

Any idea how to fix this?
