Find all Broadcasts for an Event

In this example we want to find the broadcasts for the Super Bowl game, New England Patriots vs Los Angeles Rams, played on February 3rd 2019.

To find broadcasts for an event, we can use the event.event_id parameter. This parameter allows us to retrieve broadcast records for each county the game has viewership in. So, for a specific game televised nation-wide, the API would return over 3000 broadcast records with viewership per county.

The 2019 Super Bowl game's event_id is ePQLUqbPnMn3mQhe35, so we need to filter broadcasts using event.event_id=ePQLUqbPnMn3mQhe35. The event_id was found using our Events API. See our Events API documentation to discover how to query for other sports events.

import requests

response = requests.get(
    url="https://api.predicthq.com/v1/broadcasts/",
    headers={
        "Accept": "application/json",
        "Authorization": "Bearer $ACCESS_TOKEN"
    },
    params={
        "event.event_id": "ePQLUqbPnMn3mQhe35"
    }
)

print(response.json())
