❓Issue/Question

• How do I use the Central Data API?

💻Environment/Context

• Sky's The Limit - Cloud9 x JetBrains Hackathon

👌Resolution/Answer

• Full Central Data Documentation is available here and the API reference here
• Central Data is available using https://api-op.grid.gg/central-data/graphql
• You can test it out using our GQL Playground or other API testing tools such as Postman, Insomnia, Bruno and others

Quick how-to:

1. Input the URL into the tool you are using
2. Input your API key into the headers section. The API uses x-api-key authentication
   1. Usually the tool will already automatically pull the API documentation from the server
3. Compile a query and pass it to the request 

   query Series {
       series(id: "2692648") {
           startTimeScheduled
           teams {
               baseInfo {
                   id
                   name
                   logoUrl
               }
           }
           tournament {
               id
               name
           }
           title {
               nameShortened
               id
           }
       }
   }

4. Run the request to get the data
