#General
Rugby Live Data API is designed to be as simple as possible to use (just like all the sportcontentapi API’s!). Below is a standard workflow to get you started using the API.

#Sample Workflows

Retrieve a list of active competitions:

GET /competitions

Note: Currently the competitions endpoint only lists currently active or very recently completed tournaments in 2020. We are updating our historical matches, and will release past seasons shortly!

Retrieve fixtures/results for a particular competition and season:

GET /competitions -> GET /fixtures/competition_id/season

Note: The fixtures endpoint lists all fixtures and results from the beginning of the season in one file. You can use these results to retrieve match_id s to query the match endpoint.

Retreive standings for a particular competition and season:

GET /competitions -> GET /standings/competition_id/season

Note: The standings endpoint lists a detailed table (or tables) for a given tournament and season. Note International test matches do not have associated tables.

Retrieve an individual match:

GET /competitions -> GET /fixtures/competition_id/season -> GET /match/match_id

Note: An individual match file lists the following:

• Detailed match scores
• Match minute and status
• Teamsheets including substitutions and player positions
• Detailed team stats including attack, discipline, defence, set plays, and possession
• A timeline of match events associated with teams and players from start to finish including tries, penalties, conversions, drop goals, and substitutions
