Create Event Result Set

Create a new result set for an event. If you specify 'results_source_name' and 'results_source_url', the results will include a link back to your website. The 'result_questions_contact_email' field can indicate an email address that will be used when someone submits a question or issue regarding these results.

The 'pace_type' field can be:

  • "T" - Pace as time per mile.
  • "t" - Pace as time per km.
  • "M" - Miles per hour.
  • "K" - Kilometers per hour.
  • "N" - None (i.e. Don’t display).

The 'team_column_display_type' field can be:

  • 0 - Hide
  • 1 - Show if there are team results
  • 2 - Show

The 'alt_event_ids' field allows you to link a result set to multiple events within a race. This is useful for wave races where each wave is set up as a different event or when charity entries register for a separate event.

The 'sort_order' field is an optional integer field that specifies where to sort this result set in the list of result sets associated with this event. The default sort order if none specified is 0. Valid range is -100 to 100. Data is returned in ascending order of sort_order (lowest first).

The request parameter depends on request_format.

For 'json', the request should be an object with a 'individual_result_set_name' property, containing the name for the new result set. Note that any field not include will get set to the default value for that field. An example is below.

{
	"individual_result_set_name": "API Test",
	"public_results": "T",
	"results_source_name": null,
	"results_source_url": null,
	"result_questions_contact_email": null,
	"result_questions_url": null,
	"preliminary_results": "F",
	"pace_type": "T",
	"team_column_display_type": 1,
	"alt_event_ids": [123,124],
	"hide_splits_in_results": "F",
	"hide_event_names": "F",
	"disable_notifications": "F",
	"sort_order": 5
}

For 'xml', the request should look like the example below.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<request>
	<individual_result_set_name>API Test</individual_result_set_name>
	<public_results>T</public_results>
	<results_source_name></results_source_name>
	<results_source_url></results_source_url>
	<result_questions_contact_email></result_questions_contact_email>
	<result_questions_url></result_questions_url>
	<preliminary_results>F</preliminary_results>
	<pace_type>T</pace_type>
	<team_column_display_type>1</team_column_display_type>
	<alt_event_ids>
		<alt_event_id>123</alt_event_id>
		<alt_event_id>124</alt_event_id>
	</alt_event_ids>
	<hide_splits_in_results>F</hide_splits_in_results>
	<hide_event_names>F</hide_event_names>
	<disable_notifications>F</disable_notifications>
	<sort_order>5</sort_order>
</request>
