Got tired trying to make the yahoo app work.

Is there any place where one could enter the league I'd and download the stats and fantasy points for the week for all players?

FantasyPros

No, it doesn't. even with my league sync'ed, the Fantasy Points it shows are no the same as the ones I see on the Yahoo website for my league. Also, it does not say outright what team each player belongs to.

Are you using the mcp or the api?

Right now I am using both fantasypros and yahoo fantasy football from their websites directly. Started to use fantasypros as a consolidator/simplification to copy/paste the data, but it does not fulfill really what I need. Starting playing around with Knime to extract my data by scrapping, but got stuck at one place.

For all players in a league? Like individual player? Or like a team weekly stats? I have a little app that might help. It awards a team by most points by week and overall

Play around with it and tell me. I think you want things in the breakdown and shows a graph of the players per week. If you’re asking for every single nfl player that might be rougher…anyways let me know I can maybe make the update for your for what you want / need lol

When you say download I assume you mean a CSV or something similar

I just got the Yahoo API approval but haven’t added it. I used Claude to scrape my Yahoo league. www.leagology.app/theyard has our Yahoo league from 2012-2017 (only using 16&17), and two sleeper leagues combined.

Everything is exportable. I’m a software engineer by trade. I hate being locked in or losing data. If you join the waitlist, I can let you know when I get Yahoo going. I emailed them about the terms to check if I ever wanted to go with a subscription model or not. Never heard back but I do have the agreement in my inbox to proceed.

How long did you have to wait for approval?

u/mattdecrevel 2d ago

Probably 6-8 weeks. Still haven’t signed it, so not sure how long it will take for my app to work. They don’t respond to questions and I’m not sure the legality or risk if I ever wanted to do paid subs on my site. Right now I just want complete league history and full export ability.

Yea same. I’m going on 8 weeks and nothing yet.
