Cross country

In case of Cross country the structure is organized into stages.

To retrieve details related to Biathlon events, it is necessary to start with retrieving the sport id in the "All sport" end point.

<sport id="sr:sport:46" name="Cross-Country"/>

Once we have the id of the sport we can use it in the end point "All available tournament for a sport" filtering by using sport id=46 and we can get the following:

  </sport_tournaments>

As we can see, filtering the sport in the end point provides the list of all the stages related to such sport with start and end date of the competition.

In order to get more detailed information related to the stages, we need to use the end point "schedule for a tournament" filtering by stage and we obtain the following:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
  <race_schedule xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" generated_at="2021-10-07T09:24:35+00:00" xmlns="http://schemas.sportradar.com/sportsapi/v1/unified"

    </sport_events>
  </race_schedule>

As we can see from the answer of the end point, there are more levels of staging and there are 3 parent stage. In order to get more detailed info related to such stages we can filter one of the stages in the fixture end point obtaining the following:
