FAQ

How do I get live Nashville SC scores in JSON?
Call GET https://www.realtimesportsapi.com/api/v1/sports/soccer/leagues/usa.1/events/live with a free API key and keep the games where homeTeam.id or awayTeam.id is "18986". The live endpoint returns the score, period, clock and status for games in progress. Data is aggregated from public sources and is typically 20-30 seconds behind live play (about 1 second after our source). There is no SLA.
Is there a free Nashville SC API?
Yes. The Free plan of Realtime Sports API is $0 with 1,000 calls in the first 30 days, then 125 calls per month, no card. The same key covers every MLS team and the other leagues.
What is the Nashville SC team id?
"18986" in league "usa.1" (sport "soccer"). Use it with /sports/soccer/leagues/usa.1/teams/18986 for team details and /sports/soccer/leagues/usa.1/teams/18986/roster for the roster, and to filter events by homeTeam.id or awayTeam.id.
When is the next Nashville SC game?
Nashville SC visit Austin FC on Sat, Oct 10, 8:30 PM ET at Q2 Stadium. Times are US Eastern; this page refreshes hourly.
Does the API include Nashville SC betting odds?
Yes, for upcoming MLS games that have a line: GET /sports/soccer/leagues/usa.1/events/{eventId}/odds returns the spread, moneyline and total from a single source book, and /odds/history returns line moves. It is not a multi-book comparison feed.
Can I get Nashville SC score alerts pushed to me?
Yes, on paid plans: register a webhook for event.score_change and event.final filtered to league "usa.1", then keep deliveries where data.homeTeam.id or data.awayTeam.id is "18986" (webhooks filter by league, not team). WebSocket works the same way.
