Resources in the Padel API include a status field that reflects their current state. This page describes all possible values for seasons, tournaments, matches, and point-by-point coverage.

Matches

8 possible statuses

​
Season Statuses

Indicates whether a season is yet to start, currently active, or complete.

​
Tournament Statuses

Tournaments progress from pending through finished, unless cancelled or postponed. See the Data Synchronization guide for best practices on keeping your data up to date.

​
Match Statuses

Matches progress through the following statuses. See the Data Synchronization guide for best practices on keeping your data up to date. scheduled → finished (without live coverage) scheduled → live → ended → finished (with live coverage)
Both statuses mean the match is over, but ended is a transitional state where the match has concluded on court but the score has not yet been confirmed. It will automatically transition to finished within a few minutes once the result is processed. Note that ended only appears on matches with live tracking — matches without live coverage transition directly from scheduled to finished.
A retired match started and has a partial score — one team couldn’t continue. A walkover was awarded before play began, typically due to an injury or withdrawal, and has a winner. A bye means no match took place because there was no opponent to play. A not_played match had both pairs on the sheet and never took place, so there is no winner.
Some match statuses are permanent once set and will never change: finished, retired and walkover. Others are variable and will change as the match progresses: scheduled, live, and ended. bye and not_played are stable in practice, but they describe a match that was not played rather than a result, so they yield if a result is later recorded for that match.

Point-by-Point Coverage

Matches with point-by-point data include a coverage field available in the /live endpoint, indicating how complete the tracking is.
Use coverage: "full" matches for statistical analysis. Note that full guarantees game-level completeness; individual points within a game may occasionally be missing.
