  • Resources for Yahoo fantasy football private league data through their API

  • Pulling list of player names and attributes from Yahoo Sports API using GAS
    3 projects | /r/fantasyfootballcoding | 8 Sep 2022
    Are you married to using GAS? I've been screwing around with Yahoo's API using Python found on GitHub. I've been able to parse through the players data to get things like player_id, full name, team, and position into a dataframe.
  • All ESPN Player Info

    I kind of lost interest in my project before I did anything worthwile, but I was using the steps here: https://github.com/bbenbenek/nfl-fantasy-football as a way to get an OAuth2 token and then just hardcoding that token in my app code (or postman). I never reached a point of handling getting the token myself in my own app/code.
  • Yahoo API - Pulling Week-by-Week Starting Lineups and Associated Stats
    2 projects | /r/fantasyfootballcoding | 1 Jul 2022
    I made this exact thing! Check out my guide on getting set up with the Yahoo API and pulling down your leagues info. From there you can pull all past league data as long as you have the League_ID associated with each year (look back at your league activation emails or other links that might have them). PM me if you have any issues and I can help resolve.
  • Download Yahoo league data to Excel with Fantasy Helper
    1 project | /r/fantasyfootball | 13 Jan 2022
    This is pretty slick! I've wanted to do something similar, but time is slim to work on projects these days, so glad you put this together! I love to see people like you moving the needle on accessibility into Yahoo's API...I have war stories from using it over the years. I have a Python-based library to pull the same data for those interested in learning some coding with their FF hobby and currently in the process of updating this year's data for my other side project, fantasynamesearch.com. Great work!
  • Yahoo Fantasy API -- find all leagues in all time history
    3 projects | /r/fantasyfootballcoding | 7 Oct 2021
    If you are looking for the Game and League ID from your 2015 team, you can find the Game ID using the following url to query the Yahoo API: url ='https://fantasysports.yahooapis.com/fantasy/v2/games;game_codes=nfl;seasons=2015' and then you can search your email for the league invite from that year. That should get you the link and league ID from that year. That's how I looked back a few years using the repo I created. There's no other way to get a manually added league that I'm aware of.
  • Getting player data from Yahoo without scraping?
    1 project | /r/fantasyfootballcoding | 17 Sep 2021
    Lots of options out there for accessing the Yahoo API. I made a wrapper that will pull down all your league data, but it can be adapted to pull individual player data or many players. You can find the section within the main script that grabs all the player info. Pro Tip: you can pass a ton of player ids via a single api call by chaining them together. Check out the (somewhat helpful) Yahoo Fantasy Sport documentation for more and what else it offers.
  • How'd you find a technical cofounder?
    1 project | /r/fantasyfootballcoding | 14 Sep 2021
    I will say that the Yahoo API does not surface projected player points, mainly because they import them from another service. You'll have to do the same. I have extensive experience with the Yahoo API so if you have any other questions on that, I'm happy to help. I made fantasynamesearch.com with it and also have a python wrapper to pull down league data if you wanted to learn a little bit more about it.
  • Need a new team name? I made a team name search engine to help you find a new one!
    3 projects | /r/fantasyfootball | 26 Aug 2021
    I also have some other Python resources for the Yahoo Fantasy Sports API if you are interested in trying out some data work on your league. This was the base resource I created for the bulk for the data scraping (though I don't have the actual code for that), but this repository will get you started pulling data and transforming it into a usable form.
