Access

This API takes no API key and no token. Requests are open and throttled by rate limit.

No authentication

There is no key to obtain, no header to set and no token to refresh. Send the request and read the response.

curl -X GET 'http://xx.xx.xx.xx/api/betfair/competition-list/4'

Rate limits instead of keys

Because requests are unauthenticated, usage is controlled by a per-IP rate limit rather than by a per-account quota. Exceeding it returns 429 Too Many Requests — back off and retry rather than retrying in a tight loop.

Other Sportbex environments

The trial panel at trial.sportbex.com is a separate environment and does require a sportbex-api-key header. The production API uses network-level restrictions rather than a key. Neither applies to the endpoints documented here — if you are calling one of those directly, use that environment’s own rules.
