Response Fields

Field	Type	Description
`name`	string	Sport name — use this value as the `sport` filter parameter on other endpoints
`competition_codes`	string[]	All competition codes active for this sport in the last 10 minutes
`event_count`	integer	Total distinct events with active odds across all codes for this sport

Notes

competition_codes is ordered alphabetically.
Codes not recognized by the mapping table fall into a catch-all Other sport. This happens for raw bookmaker-specific codes from Vbet/DaznBet (French-language names). They are valid odds rows but their sport couldn’t be resolved.
Cache TTL: 60 seconds.
