La Liga teams

Hello!

I'm trying to fetch all the Spanish La Liga teams using the free endpoint provided (https://www.thesportsdb.com/api/v1/json/3/search_all_teams.php?s=Soccer&c=Spain) but after filtering to match only the first division teams it only returns an array of 6 teams.

Is this response intended? I noticed i can fetch all 20 teams for the Premier League so i'm not sure if it's my fault or not. Is it beacause it's a free link?

The free tier only returns 50 teams, so you're filtering the first 50 teams, 6 of which are LaLiga teams.

300 teams are returned using a Patreon key.

I bring this post up to ask if you could rename a few teams because it's hurting my eyes haha

Ath Madrid => Atletico Madrid
Ath Bilbao => Athletic Club (this is the official name)
Sociedad => Real Sociedad
Vallecano => Rayo Vallecano
Alaves => Deportivo Alaves
Betis = Real Betis (this one isn't as bad but it wouldn't hurt)

Thanks!

You could either use `strAlternate` or create your own dictionary in your code.

Agreed, I will rename at the end of the season though as not to cause issues with event names.

There is no strAlternate in some responses i think, it's been a while since i used the api. About the dictionary i had no idea i could do that, i'll look into it.
