The same call in both APIs
curl -H "Abios-Secret: YOUR_SECRET" \ "https://atlas.abiosgaming.com/v3/series?filter=start!=null,end=null,deleted_at=null&order=start-asc"
curl -H "X-API-Key: YOUR_API_KEY" \ "https://kashrock.up.railway.app/v6/esports/cs2/matches?status=upcoming"
Abios calls a BO3 a series. KashRock returns that as a match. Matches are Builder.
Odds and widgets are sportsbook packages. Sold through sales. No self-serve DFS board.
curl -H "X-API-Key: YOUR_API_KEY" \ "https://kashrock.up.railway.app/v6/esports/cs2/props"
One propId across books. Over and under share it.
Migrate from Abios
- 1
Stop waiting on a quote.
Create a Sandbox key now. If you already have an Abios quote in hand, compare it line by line against published KashRock plans on the pricing page instead of waiting on a revised proposal.
- 2
Swap host and auth.
Abios Atlas: atlas.abiosgaming.com with Abios-Secret. KashRock: X-API-Key on https://kashrock.up.railway.app. One header, no secondary auth handshake.
- 3
Map series → matches.
GET /v3/series becomes GET /v6/esports/{sport}/matches?status=upcoming|live|finished. Store kr_match_id next to the old Abios series id during the transition so downstream joins keep working.
- 4
Add the board you could not buy a la carte.
GET /v6/esports/{sport}/props for DFS lines. GET /v6/esports/{sport}/results to grade hit / miss / push — a board Abios doesn't sell to indie teams at all.
Why developers switch
- —You can see the price before you commit — no procurement cycle, so budgeting doesn't depend on a sales rep's quote.
- —You're building today, not next quarter after a contract, since procurement and region review can add weeks before you see a single row of data.
- —You need DFS-book props, not just a sportsbook feed — Abios's tooling is sold to sportsbook clients, not indie DFS builders.
- —You want one canonical kr_ ID across every book instead of mapping Abios series/match IDs yourself, which saves the reconciliation work when a player's name is spelled differently across sources.
