Importing Over/Under 1.5 Goals Markets

Hi,

I want to import some Over/Under 1.5 Goals markets from an Excel spreadsheet.

Here is a sample of the values in the first column of my sheet:

["Paks v Zalaegerszeg/Over/Under 1.5 Goals"]

["Elfsborg v Kalmar FF/Over/Under 1.5 Goals"]

["Sirius v Ostersunds FK/Over/Under 1.5 Goals"]

I then want to use a trigger on each of these three matches' over 1.5 goals market.
But when I import the file, I get a message that none of the markets were imported.
I think I have matched the format required, but obviously, I have missed something.
Any guidance you can offer is most welcome,
Jim

Hello!

You are importing selections, so each line must contain a selection name, such as Over 1.5 Goals or Under 1.5 Goals, not just the name of the market. Plus the syntax is different (see the manual for details and examples).


["Paks v Zalaegerszeg"]"Over 1.5 Goals"
["Elfsborg v Kalmar FF"]"Under 1.5 Goals"

You can use the following trigger example for exporting all selections into a text file and then deleting the ones you don't need:

Thank you for your reply.

I'm just noting that the format you show in your reply:

Bracket - Quote - Home v Away - Quote - Bracket - Quote - Selection - Quote

Differs quite a bit from the format in the manual:

(The following line is copied from the manual "Import for auto-trading" section)

["Team 1 vs Team 2/Match Odds"]"Team 1"

That is:

Bracket - Quote - Home vs Away - Slash - Market - Quote - Bracket - Quote - Selection - Quote

So the manual says to include the market between the quotes and the brackets, followed by the selection. Which is what I did, except I didn't put "Over 1.5 Goals" after the closing bracket.

I'll try both and report here if they both work.

That's right, you can use the longer notation, but the system will look for any markets where the name of the market contains the string in between the square brackets. So if you include the names of the teams, that will do the trick too. Just make sure to add the actual names of the selections you want to import.

Hi,

Nothing I have tried works. Here are the combinations I have tried:

1. The format from the manual: 

["Villarreal v Valencia / Over/Under 1.5 Goals"]"Over 1.5 Goals"

   This has the match and market in quotes separated by a slash, followed by as you suggest, the selection including the "1.5 Goals"
   I also tried this with no spaces around the slash separating the match and the market:

["Villarreal v Valencia/Over/Under 1.5 Goals"]"Over 1.5 Goals"

2. I also tried the above with out the "1.5 Goals" as the selection, since in the market, the selections are "Under" and "Over" without the number of goals, with and without the spaces around the slash.

["Villarreal v Valencia / Over/Under 1.5 Goals"]"Over"

and

["Villarreal v Valencia/Over/Under 1.5 Goals"]"Over"

3. I tried the format you suggested in your reply above, that is, the market name is outside the brackets:

["Villarreal v Valencia"]"Over 1.5 Goals"

and

["Villarreal v Valencia"]"Over 1.5 Goals"

4. Finally, in the manual, the match or match and market, are contained in brackets, your reply said to use parentheses, so I tried all six of the above with parentheses:

("Villarreal v Valencia / Over/Under 1.5 Goals")"Over 1.5 Goals"

("Villarreal v Valencia / Over/Under 1.5 Goals")"Over"

("Villarreal v Valencia")"Over 1.5 Goals"

("Villarreal v Valencia")"Over 1.5 Goals"

("Villarreal v Valencia/Over/Under 1.5 Goals")"Over 1.5 Goals"

("Villarreal v Valencia/Over/Under 1.5 Goals")"Over"

None of these combinations worked.
I also tried the trigger file you referenced, and matched exactly what was exported, except for the sport type, county, league, etc., starting with the match.
This is what was exported:

["Soccer / Finnish Football / Finnish Veikkausliiga / Fixtures 19 Oct / Lahti v Haka / Over/Under 1.5 Goals - Over/Under 1.5 Goals"]"Under 1.5 Goals"

["Soccer / Finnish Football / Finnish Veikkausliiga / Fixtures 19 Oct / Lahti v Haka / Over/Under 1.5 Goals - Over/Under 1.5 Goals"]"Over 1.5 Goals"

["Soccer / Italian Football / Italian Serie C / Fixtures 19 Oct / Lucchese v Como / Over/Under 1.5 Goals - Over/Under 1.5 Goals"]"Over 1.5 Goals"

["Soccer / Italian Football / Italian Serie C / Fixtures 19 Oct / Lucchese v Como / Over/Under 1.5 Goals - Over/Under 1.5 Goals"]"Under 1.5 Goals"

["Soccer / Uruguayan Football / Uruguayan Segunda Division / Fixtures 19 Oct / Villa Espanola v Sud America / Over/Under 1.5 Goals - Over/Under 1.5 Goals"]"Under 1.5 Goals"

["Soccer / Uruguayan Football / Uruguayan Segunda Division / Fixtures 19 Oct / Villa Espanola v Sud America / Over/Under 1.5 Goals - Over/Under 1.5 Goals"]"Over 1.5 Goals"

This is what I tried to import:

["Derry City v Dundalk / Over/Under 1.5 Goals - Over/Under 1.5 Goals"]"Over 1.5 Goals"

["NAC Breda v Cambuur Leeuwarden / Over/Under 1.5 Goals - Over/Under 1.5 Goals"]"Over 1.5 Goals"

["Verl v FC Magdeburg / Over/Under 1.5 Goals - Over/Under 1.5 Goals"]"Over 1.5 Goals"

["Bristol City v Middlesbrough / Over/Under 1.5 Goals - Over/Under 1.5 Goals"]"Over 1.5 Goals"

["Coventry v Swansea / Over/Under 1.5 Goals - Over/Under 1.5 Goals"]"Over 1.5 Goals"

["Colchester v Forest Green / Over/Under 1.5 Goals - Over/Under 1.5 Goals"]"Over 1.5 Goals"

["Wealdstone v Chesterfield / Over/Under 1.5 Goals - Over/Under 1.5 Goals"]"Over 1.5 Goals"

["Reggina v Cosenza / Over/Under 1.5 Goals - Over/Under 1.5 Goals"]"Over 1.5 Goals"

Nothing I tried of any format worked.
Any guidance you can offer is welcome.
Thank you,
Jim

Have you actually loaded all the markets into the program before performing the import?

Have you followed each step of this video tutorial?
