Hi,

When looking at the markets list, it is sometimes difficult to know if an event will go in-play, without having to go to the Betfair website.

Would it be possible to add an 'in-play' indicator somewhere in the list, like an * or 'IP' to identify quickly those which will go in-play ?

Thanks
H

I'm not sure how easy it would be to implement, but it would certainly be useful

there is another api software which clearly shows,for football,
whether the match and any particular market is going
in-play.
it's nothing like as comprehensive as ba,so it's not appealing.
but they are doing it.
so the question is are they doing it cleanly with the betfair api or is this an external tweak they have come up with?

The API already has a flag to specify if a market is going in play when you call getAllMarkets, which I assume BA uses to populate the market tree. There's even a dedicated API call , getInPlayMarkets, to show which markets are due to go inplay within the next 24 hours

This would be very useful to have. Any chance of getting it included BA?

I have asked for this a couple of time. So i will add my name.
Can we also have the rules tab added. As this also tells you when a market is going in play.
