| | Hi all,
I am still testing. And oneof my tests was to get teams here:
https://www.thesportsdb.com/api/v1/json ... hp?id=4479
This return first 50 teams only, while when I check page for that same division - there are lot more than 50, after last one API returl "Delaware":
https://www.thesportsdb.com/league/4479-NCAA-Division-1
How to change API url call to get them all/next 50 ? I see nothing about that in API examples or any DOCs.

| | If you are using the test key then its indeed limited to 50 results.
Patreon supporters don't have the same limits.
NCAA division is quite unique as there are so many teams! Most other leagues should be fine in testing.

| | Thanks for clarification. I will get real key (Patreon) later, as for now I was just testing. And wanted to be sure it works. If real key have no such limitation - perfetc, as in general I am interested exactly of that NCAA division.

| | I went through the source looking for pagination, but that doesn't seem to be supported either.
So to clarify... [i:2sh8a0s1]access to the API[/i:2sh8a0s1] is technically free for non-subscribers, but you can't actually get full sets of results on some/many/most calls?

| | I see now what's published is a client, not the server source (would just edit that last post, but I can't do that until/unless it's approved). So never mind on that count.
I also see that pagination has been shot down, which is really weird for any kind of API, but I guess that's just how it is.

Yeh i'm not a fan of Pagination, I prefer all results to be returned. Of course when I designed the API the site was a lot smaller!!
The API has been designed to be as simple as possible to use, with a nice free tier for anyone to get started

| | The API and site will always remain free at point of access. If you love our service and find this site useful you can sign up as a Patreon supporter for $5 or more to get special features such as livescores. You can cancel anytime. This allows us to pay for the servers and bandwidth and develop new features.
...pretty clearly implies that free users can use the endpoints that aren't marked as special features. If you don't want to change that copy to make it more clear that "free at point of access" does not mean "fully functioning," it seems to me you should at least document the hard result limits.

| | Good point, I will do.
For a little history, those hard limits used to apply to both free and supporter tiers.
Its only now that we have huge NHL seasons or NCAA team lists that we actually hit those limits
Some supporters requested we make it unlimited so we did.
