# Relationship between API and Data Filter Settings in Dashboard

## General Idea

Our API always returns full data when requested. We provide the **data filter function** in our dashboard to help customers display and receive only the target data they need. For example, if you don't want to get odds for all 16 bookmakers of football but only Bet365, you can use this function.

For setup instructions, see: [How to use 'API Filter Settings' in dashboard?](/help-center/customer-console/how-to-use-api-filter-settings.md)

## Sample affected APIs

If we select 'Bet365' as the only bookmaker for football, the results of the following APIs will be affected:

* [List Bookmakers](/bookmaker-odds/bookmaker-odds/bookmaker.md#get-v1-bookmaker-list)

{% hint style="info" %}
Note: Bet365 must be selected for all sports. Then this API will return only Bet365. Otherwise, other bookmakers may still be returned.
{% endhint %}

* [List In-Play Bookmakers](/bookmaker-odds/bookmaker-odds/in-play.md#get-v1-odds-inplay-bookmakers)
* [Get In-Play Odds by Bookmaker](/bookmaker-odds/bookmaker-odds/in-play.md#get-v1-odds-inplay-bookmaker-markets)
* [List Pre-Match Bookmakers](/bookmaker-odds/bookmaker-odds/pre-match.md#get-v1-odds-prematch-bookmakers)
* [Get Pre-Match Odds by Bookmaker](/bookmaker-odds/bookmaker-odds/pre-match.md#get-v1-odds-prematch-bookmaker-markets)
* [Snapshot](/bookmaker-odds/bookmaker-odds/snapshot.md)

{% hint style="info" %}
Note: The input parameter bookmaker\_id of 'Get In-Play Odds by Bookmaker' API and 'Get Pre-Match Odds by Bookmaker' must be set to 1. If you fill with 2, the API will return no results.
{% endhint %}

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://developer.aiodds.com/help-center/plans-billing/relationship-between-api-and-data-filter-settings-in-dashboard.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
