Events APIs

The Prediction Market Events APIs help developers work with top-level event discovery and event metadata across supported prediction platforms.
Use these endpoints to build event hubs, landing pages, category feeds, and search-driven navigation.

Key Benefits of the Events APIs

  • Event-first discovery – Organize markets around shared questions or outcome sets.
  • Cross-platform browsing – Pull event data across supported prediction venues.
  • Search and filtering – Power event exploration with search and platform-aware filters.
  • Market rollups – Surface event-level volume, liquidity, and nested market context.

Events API FAQs

What is an event in the Prediction Market API?

An event is a top-level grouping for one or more related markets that share a common question set or theme, such as an election, sports match, or macroeconomic outcome.

When should I use the events list instead of the markets list?

Use the events list when you want a broader discovery layer with grouped context. Use the markets list when you need tradeable market-level detail like prices, liquidity, or orderbooks.

Does the search endpoint only return events?
