# Activation

The activation option in the overview acts as a ‘master’ setting for that tournament. If it is switched to off, none of this tournament’s markets will be offered, irrespective of any configurations in the template in use with that tournament.

&#x20;If a tournament is set to ‘Mon’ from the overview then when one of its events is viewed in Match Up view own odds will appear ‘locked’ and will be effectively suspended. The user will not offer this event, nor any others from a tournament set to ‘Mon’ in the overview. However, nominated competitor’s prices are shown for comparison purposes.

Putting a tournament’s activation to ‘Ctrl’ in the overview means that full functionality is enabled, the tournament will be offered in line with the configuration defined in the template in use with that tournament. Where a market has been set to controllable in the template the user will be able to modify the odds, provided the overall activation is set to Ctrl.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.sportradar.com/ctrl/guide/configuration/tournaments-prematch/activation.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
