Endpoint chain

Start with /api/v1/lol/live/{gameId}/visual-state, then add the supporting rows your screen needs.

The first request should answer the user's main question. Add live state, roster rows, match stats, transfer history, or earnings only when the UI needs that detail.

GET
/api/v1/lol/live/{gameId}/visual-state

Today's matches, upcoming schedule, and live state.

Today's pro matches

/api/v1/lol/schedule/today

Today's pro matches fills in the detail around the primary response.

Upcoming matches

/api/v1/lol/schedule/upcoming

Upcoming matches fills in the detail around the primary response.

League schedule

/api/v1/lol/leagues/{leagueId}/schedule

League schedule fills in the detail around the primary response.

Returned data

Build live gold difference panels, match momentum charts, and post-game gold graphs for League of Legends esports matches.

Best first request

Call /api/v1/lol/live/{gameId}/visual-state from your backend and cache the response based on how often that screen changes.

Common fallback

If live data is empty, show today's schedule, upcoming matches, recent results, or the last known team/player rows.

API key handling

Keep the API key on your server. Send your frontend only the fields it needs to render the page.

Data fit

Use this API for pro matches, teams, players, rosters, stats, and esports history.

If you need Riot ID, PUUID, ranked ladder, champion mastery, or account-linked match history, use Riot's APIs. If you need a pro esports app, use Cito's LoL endpoints.

Pro Esports API

Built for match centers, fantasy products, scouting tools, wikis, dashboards, team pages, player pages, and live bots.

Live matches and schedules
Pick/ban and game stats where published
Tournament brackets and standings
Player earnings and org history
Transfer tracking
Roster history

Ranked and Ladder Workflows

Use Riot APIs for direct Riot ID, PUUID, summoner, match history, ranked ladder, champion mastery, and account-linked workflows. Cito only references public pro-player account context where source data allows it.

Resources

Docs, examples, and machine-readable endpoint files.

Open the docs when you want examples. Import Postman when you want to test. Use the endpoint manifest when an AI coding tool needs exact paths.
