I need to get the latest cricket and rugby matches information from internet from UiPath. Can we use open AI API call? or what is the best approach. please help

Hi @gg00857020,

You can try this approach:

  1. Sign up for a free API key on your chosen provider.
  2. In Studio/Studio Web, use the HTTP Request activity to call the API endpoint, passing your API key as a header or query param.
  3. Parse the JSON response, use Deserialize JSON to get a JObject/JArray, then extract fields like team names, scores, match status.
  4. Optionally, feed that structured data into an LLM like OpenAI or Claude afterward just to summarize or format it into natural language.

You can use a dedicated sports data Free API directly from these sources.
For Cricket - Ultimate Cricket Data API – Score, Scorecard, Fantasy API, JSON
For Rugby - BelNaruto/rugby-api: The **Rugby API** provides a comprehensive suite of data for rugby enthusiasts and developers, offering real-time updates, player statistics, team information, and more.

Cheers!

So we don’t have direct option to get the data. You can try to use Web Search activity which will give you URL’s of possible results and then use Use Application Browser activity to navigate and then scrap the data and then use Summarize Text activity.

It’s not foolproof but best possible for now.
