Preview brief
# Integration brief: SportsAPI Pro

Goal: build a feature on SportsAPI Pro data. Use only the official documentation below as the source of truth.

## Known facts (from SportDex, verify before relying on them)
- Website: https://sportsapipro.com
- Docs: https://docs.sportsapipro.com/introduction
- Sports: Multi-sport (40+)
- Data: Fixtures, Lineups, Odds, Player stats, Predictions, Live scores, Standings, Team stats
- Protocols: REST, WebSocket; formats: json
- Auth: api_key
- Free plan: Free, 100 requests per day
- Cheapest paid plan: $45/mo
- Note: Monthly figures from the compare table (summarizer); 3-month card prices differ with discount. Site says 25+ sports; docs list V1 9, V2 25, V3 34 sports.

## Verify before writing code
- live update frequency
- 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.
