AFL Platform Update - 29th January 2026
Products Updated​
- AFL API updated to v1.66
2026 Season Support​
The following changes are to support the leagues' upcoming 2026 seasons including the AFL Origin match.
Coates Talent League Code & Name Change​
As Coates Hire is no longer sponsoring the 'Talent League' for 2026, the following league codes & names have been updated so they no longer associate Coates Hire with them.
| League Id | Old Values | New Values |
|---|---|---|
| 10 | Coates Talent League Boys - CTLB | Talent League Boys - TLB |
| 11 | Coates Talent League Girls - CTLG | Talent League Girls - TLG |
Should a new sponsor be found for 2026, we will change the names of the leagues, but the codes will remain as TLB/TLG so they aren't required to be changed each time the sponsor changes.
AFL Origin SNS Notification Support​
The upcoming AFL Origin match (183133234) will send out SNS Notifications, but being in its own League (Id 21), we have extended everyone's existing subscriptions to include this match.
Swagger Example Match Id now 2025 GF​
The AFL API's example match id in Swagger has now been changed to the AFL 2025 Grand Final (127270401). This match provides results for Elite package content such as 45 Kicks, whereas the previous example, a 2021 match, does not.
Intercept Chain Metres record update​
The CHAIN_METRES_INT metric records have been updated as they were including all sources of chains, not just from intercepts. This had no outward impact on the AFL API - this is included here as the update to the AFL Platform will trigger SNS Notifications for these metrics.
