Fetching only parsed ranked games

[batukav]

Hi all,

I was wondering if there's a simple way to fetch the parsed ranked games, similar to the parsedMatches endpoint.

My current solution is to use GET /parsedMatches to get last parsed 100 game ids, use GET /matches/{match_id} to get the games by id, and then filter out by the game mode. However, after the filtering I generally end up with only a few ranked games and this feels like a wasteful way to find data only for the ranked games.

Cheers

We don't currently support filters on the parsed match list unfortunately

Thanks for the quick reply. I could work on a pull request that does this, would you be open to that?

Yes, happy to discuss potential implementations! Quick possiblity would probably be a new column in parsed_matches that has the game_mode and then insert the game_mode when we populate the field + add a query param to filter on game mode.

An alternative would be to gather your list of ranked match IDs separately and then request parses for those matches.

Great! I had something similar to your first suggestion in mind. You can assign this issue to me, if you want. I should have time in the upcoming days to create the pull request.

That'd work but how do I get the ranked match IDs separately using the API? I'm interested in analysing at least a few thousand games so manually creating a list out of option for me.

The publicMatches endpoint does have a rank filter so you could probably use that
