Preview brief
# Integration brief: SkillCorner Goal: build a feature on SkillCorner data. Use only the official documentation below as the source of truth. ## Known facts (from SportDex, verify before relying on them) - Website: https://skillcorner.com - Docs: https://skillcorner.com - Sports: Football (soccer), Basketball, American football - Data: Play-by-play, Player stats, Team stats, Tracking data - Protocols: REST; formats: json - Auth: UNKNOWN — check the docs - Free plan: none listed - Note: Free open data sample and API delivery come from the batch note; crawled home mentions 350+ clients and 150+ competitions. Country and REST from knowledge, unverified. ## Verify before writing code - authentication method - live update frequency - whether commercial use is allowed on the plan you pick - exact endpoint paths, parameters and response fields (read the official docs, do not guess) ## Implementation rules - Keep the API key on the server (environment variable, backend route or edge function); never ship it to the browser. - Cache responses and respect rate limits; count how many requests each screen triggers. - Handle errors explicitly: invalid key, quota exceeded (429), missing fields, empty fixtures, timeouts. - Start with one demo request and log the raw response before building UI on assumed field names.
