Alpha, it is annoying. But particularly so from the vendor side of the business. It means the cost of producing the software has effectively doubled without any benefit. It's been a complete re-write of the code for a lot of people and some vendors have just given up with that in mind. So not an ideal situation. I'd imagine a few apps will just switch off on the 1st Nov.
From what I can see a lot has changed in the architecture at Betfair's back end so NG is is the API catching up on that. But in terms of actual benefits to everybody there are a few, like no call limits, but nothing earth shattering. Even then that's offset by the desire of Betfair to produce a leaner operating model. I think we will all have to see how the dust settles after the migration to see what the overall impact is.
We will ensure Bet Angel customer get the full benefit of any improvements.
New Bet Angel Professional Beta 1.37 - API NG
Turns out this is a Betfair API issue but they haven't been able to offer a solution as yet.pmanso wrote:I'm using the new version and i can't find the kremlin Cup 2014 for the ATP, only for the WTA. Can you check? Thanks.

Just to expand on that. If you look at the Kremlin Cup on the betfair web site, you'll see that there are two nodes called Mens Tournament one above the other, whereas the Womens Tournament is only in the data structure the once. Betfair Market Ops have identified the bug that caused that, so it won't happen again, but we'll be able to workaround it for the next build.Euler wrote:It's to do with the bulk downloading of markets via the API
