Just discovered this API, pretty cool...is everything read-only? Does the API allow transactions to be executed? Lineup changes? I understand this could lead to malicious acts done through code :-)
Thanks
Hi sschwane, thanks for checking out the API! Most of the API is read-only, but we do expose two write services:
- Add/Drop - http://developer.yahoo.com/fantasysports/g...collection.html . Worth noting that we don't currently support waiver adds/drops because of some complications when you start considering the FAAB feature.
- Edit Lineup - we actually don't quite have this one documented yet, but it's totally possible. Working on writing this up once we can get the pages a bit better organized.
Those are the only two write services we're really planning for right now, but I would be curious to find out what other write services people feel would be useful.
(also important to note: if you want your application to be able to write data to users' fantasy leagues/teams, you'll need to be sure that you sign up for the Read/Write scope for your application, not just the Read scope)
