# Testing

This page includes test event IDs and other information to make sure your integration works as planned. Use it to trigger different flows in your integration and ensure they are handled accordingly.

### Table Tennis API

When using the Table Tennis API in your application, ensure that:

* All required header paramters are set correctly
* You have a valid OAuth Bearer 2.0 token for authentication
* Use the correct URL to get connected to the API

### Basic Match IDs <a href="#cards" id="cards"></a>

Genuine match ID information cannot be used in test mode. Instead, use any of the following test match ID numbers to make a successful request.

| Match ID | Details       |
| -------- | ------------- |
| 999991   | Test Match ID |

### Example of how to connect to a Websocket <a href="#cards" id="cards"></a>

Use the following command to get more details about a match associated with the id of 999991.

`WebSocket: wss://dde-streams.srarena.io/tabletennis/999991/matchdetails`

Then right after getting connected, a valid authentication token should be sent immediately.

```
{
  "authToken": "<token>"
}
```

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## 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/table-tennis/documentation-1/connecting-programmatically.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.
