OPDB & PinTips API

The Open Pinball Database (OPDB) is a searchable archive of pinball machines with a focus on providing a solid API for software developers who wish to incorporate pinball machine data into their apps.

You probably don't need OPDB endpoints

When working OPDB data it's often most efficient to download the entire OPDB data set as a data export instead of fetching machine details one by one.

Get OPDB entry

GET /api/opdb/entries/{opdbId}

Get a single OPDB entry including any tutorial videos. Do not use if you're fetching data for many entries. Instead download the entire OPDB data set as one export.

Get PinTips

GET /api/pintips

Get PinTips (short playing tips) for a single OPDB entry or Match Play arena.
