Season standings

Standings, also known as rankings, show the positions of the teams competing in a season. Standings show the total number of games played, won, and lost, the number of goals for and against and the number of points they have accumulated.
Keep track of the season performances of your favourite teams. The standings endpoint is used to retrieve full league standing tables.
The response of the standings endpoint can be returned in two formats depending on the league setup. For ‘normal’ leagues, the response format differs from cups.
You can choose a variety of endpoints to retrieve the season standings.
This section will briefly discuss all the options available to request season standings.
An overview of all available options:
GET All Standings: returns all the standings available within your subscription.
GET Standing by Season ID: returns the full league standing table from your requested season id.
GET Standings by Round ID: returns the full league standing table from your requested round id.
GET Standing Correction by Season ID: returns the standing corrections from your requested season id.
Get Live Standings by League ID: returns the LIVE league standing table from your requested league id.
For all the season standings endpoints the base URL is the same: 
https://api.sportmonks.com/v3/football/standings 
Per endpoint the rest of the URL requires additional information. We will explain this per endpoint.
Requesting standings
GET All Standings 
The first option is to request all the standings available in your subscription. The URL to retrieve all your standings is the same as the base URL for standings. All you have to do is authorize the request with your API token. Check our authentication section for more info.

GET Standings by Round ID
The GET Standings by Round ID is perfect for displaying the leagues' standings in a particular round. It’s great to show historical data or to make analyses based on historical standings. You will need to add the round_id parameters to your request.

GET Standings by Corrections by Season ID
Sometimes, a team gets a disciplinary sanction that results in a point deduction. The GET Standings Correction by Season ID endpoint is designed to return the standing corrections from your requested season id. To retrieve this, you will have to add the following info to the base URL of standings:
https://api.sportmonks.com/v3/football/standings/corrections/seasons/{season_id}
For this example only, we’re going to use a different season id than from the free plan. This is to give you an understanding of the API’s response. We’re using the season id of the French Ligue 1 2021/2022 season.

GET Live Standings by League ID
Next to historical standings per round, you can obtain live standings. The GET Live Standings by League ID returns the LIVE league standing table from your requested league ID. To retrieve this, you will have to add the following info to the base URL of standings:
https://api.sportmonks.com/v3/football/standings/live/league/{league_id}
Please note that in this instance, you need to parse a league id. This is because you can only obtain LIVE standings for active seasons.

Adding useful information 
Now, you might have noticed that the API returns only the necessary information. But what if you’re interested in league and team names? Or if you’re interested in more details? You can use certain includes for this.
Check the endpoint page for a complete overview of the available includes.
Let’s say you want the standings of the Danish Superliga 2022/2023 season, but this time with the team and league information and the standing details. As you’ve learnt in the GET Standings by Season ID section, your request is:
https://api.sportmonks.com/v3/football/standings/seasons/19686?api_token=YOUR_TOKEN
Now, you can add the participant, league and details.type include for more info:

Including .type is not recommended as an include on any endpoint. Types are used throughout the entire API. We recommend retrieving all types from the types endpoint and storing them in your database or other data structure. Only include the type if no other option is available or when testing the API.
