Setting Up StatBroadcast with PrestoStats
Transmitting stats to StatBroadcast from PrestoStats requires retrieving StatBroadcast’s FTP settings and entering them into Presto Stats’ platform.
This simple setup should take less than five minutes to complete. Once you have completed Steps 1 and 2, you will only need to complete Step 3 for future events.
To connect PrestoStats to StatBroadcast, you'll need to setup StatBroadcast as a Live Stats Partner in PrestoStats.
This should only need to be done once per season.
Note: Values have been blurred for security purposes.
You will need to enter those into PrestoStats’ Partner setup in the next step.
Write in the values here for quick reference:
FTP server: _____________________________________________
Username: _____________________________________________
Password: _____________________________________________
Note: on some computers, using the copy+paste function will result in errors on the Presto side. You may need to type this Path value in by hand on the Presto site.
Scroll down below the ftp information to the 'FTP Filenames/Paths' section and find the XML path for your game. Typical XML paths for StatBroadcast follow the following format: [your school code] / [event id number] .xml
Important note: Every game/event on StatBroadcast will require setting a different path in PrestoStats setup.
Please note that you must have scheduled games for data to appear in the Filenames grid. If your grid is empty, please schedule some events first.
For quicker reference, you can use one of the export buttons (PDF, CSV, Excel, Print) to save this information for later.
You will need to update the XML Path value in PrestoStats for every game to correspond with the StatBroadcast event. Starting a new game without first updating the path may result in overwriting final stats from a previously completed game.
