Details
Official TBF app API, unofficial for SportsDataverse: the backend of the Turkish Basketball Federation's mobile app (miniappapi.tbf.org.tr), which serves BSL, TBL, KBSL and the other TBF leagues. It needs no key; robots.txt answers 404 on the host, and the runtime spaces requests at least 1 s apart. SportsDataverse has not ruled on TBF's terms, so payloads are not redistributed as release assets. The vendor's origin hosts (nikayazilim.com) serve the same data without Cloudflare but are deliberately not used, redirects are never followed, and www.tbf.org.tr's interactive Turnstile is neither used nor automated.
Coverage: season and competition are parameters (bsl Basketbol Super Ligi, back to 1966-67 in the league
list; tbl second tier; kbsl women, both from 2015-16). Game wrappers serve FINISHED games only (an
unfinished game raises wehoop_asset_fetch). Box scores exist from 2006-07 (no starters flagged that
season); play-by-play and shots from 2025-26 only, an earlier finished game raises wehoop_no_data. Every
game carries a Genius LiveStats id (genius_id, joins the genius family) from 2018-19 on some seasons
and on every game of 2025-26 and later. Birth dates, contact details, photos and logos are dropped. Names
and category labels are Turkish; the column descriptions give the English gloss.
Errors: wehoop_no_data when TBF has nothing for the request (HTTP 404, an unknown game or player, a season
the league list lacks, an empty list, a finished game before 2025-26 asked for play-by-play or shots);
wehoop_bad_request for an invalid argument or HTTP 400 / 422; wehoop_asset_fetch when the fetch failed or
the answer is not the one asked for (an unfinished game, a body for another game, season, league or team,
an error envelope, a redirect, a partial page or a changed capped list). All inherit wehoop_error.
Timestamps are Turkey local time (Europe/Istanbul).
