Developer Access to Spotrac Data


  • Spotrac's API

    The Spotrac API provides you with the access to retrieve and display active contract, salary, and cap information for teams and players across the major sports we cover. Integrating data from the API is easy, and powerful. In the coming months we'll work to expand the API, and this section, to allow for even more real-time data requests and examples for documentation purposes.

    Integrate real-time financial information for MLB, NFL, NBA, and the NHL - including player contracts, salaries, cap figures, and more. Filter our data by team, position, or year to fit your application's current needs.

     

    The Spotrac API is RESTful, meaning requests are obtained using the GET format. All data is returned in JSON format for flexible usage.

    Our pricing structure is reflective of the sports being requested, and the amount of volume/requests your application is in need of on a monthly basis. Once you're registered, you'll receive a production application KEY for each sport you've purchased, allowing for variant request limits per sport.
