I'm trying to make a system that puts bets on via the API. Still testing but today I have a case where a bet should have been placed but I have no record of this happening. If a bet has not been matched before the event starts (i.e. its lapsed) I presume it should still appear in the My Account -> Betting History section, when I select "Lapsed" in the drop down?
Is there any way I can prove or otherwise that this bet was placed but unmatched?

have you tried checking the "cancelled" bets just incase you cancelled it by accident
Yep checked Cancelled and voided and bet not there. I am guessing it must have been that my Bot has failed somehow, or could not connect to the API?
could be that,no reason why there would be no trace of it unless bot failed imo
I assume it wasn't on Glamorgan vs Sussex this morning, as there was all manner of cokk ups on that involving voids, cancels, suspensions and so on.
Thanks for replies, I think I will have to build in some more fail safes if so doesnt happen again in future.
Lori - Nope was on IFK Mariehamn v Haka Valkeakoski correct score market [smiley:crazy]

Might be worth posting on the Football forum to see if anything unusual occured in that game, although the chances of you getting a meaningful response is probably reasonably low on there.
Do unmatched bets cleared after a suspend show up in My Account? If not, maybe that's what happened.
in my experience, Lapsed Bets can take quite a while after the market is settled before they appear in the website's BetHistory display ... it's caused me some scares when i've been testing API apps ... might be worth checking to see if your AWOL beat has magically appeared by now?
Thanks for more replies. Still no sign of it gus no so think it was just a log in or connection error. I was only trying to log in once so my own fault really, put in some loops and alerts for future to try to get around it or at least tell me what went wrong.
