LET / LETAS Tour Flows

A round's path from tournament setup through No1 Golf, to player entry and final yardage — mapped step by step, with open items flagged where the flow still needs work.
Step 1UpgameNo1 Golf
Enable No1 Golf API for the tournament
Every week, No1 Golf's API needs to be switched on for that week's tournaments before any round data can flow into Upgame.
Action: Automate this using the season list (dates + tournament IDs), so it doesn't need to be done weekly.
Step 2Tournament Admin
Name rounds to map with the API
Each round is labelled when the tournament and round are created, so the No1 Golf API can match it to the right tournament round and return its data.
Use: 1, 2, 3, 4 — most reliable.
Also enabled: "Round1/Round2…" and "Round 1/Round 2…".
Risk: "First/Second/Third…" is enabled but prone to spelling mistakes that break the match.
Step 3Tournament AdminUpgame
Fetch automated pins
The admin pulls in automated pin locations from No1 Golf for the round via a toggle, instead of placing them manually.
Action: Replace the toggle with a Sync action, since pins are fetched once on demand, not continuously, so the admin understands a trigger is required to get fresh locations.
Step 4UpgameNo1 Golf
Identifying discrepancies
1
Hole-level pin fetch visibility
Internally, Upgame can already see which holes successfully received No1 Golf pin data and which didn't.
Action: Surface the hole-by-hole pin fetch status to the tournament admin.
2
Yardage cross-check with No1 Golf
Hole yardage from No1 Golf, if exposed via the API, would let Upgame cross-check it against our own values and flag mismatches automatically.
Action: Confirm with No1 Golf whether yardage can be exposed via the API at all.
3
Potential discrepancy in dogleg yardage methodology
Admins have reported upto 18-yard discrepancy on dogleg holes.
Action: Align with No1 Golf on how yardage is calculated for dogleg holes.
Step 1UpgameTournament Admin
Field setup
The field list is shared to set the tournament field, so players are able to link their accounts and add rounds.
How it works: players, if linked correctly to the tour, should be able to add rounds even if they're on a trial.
Step 2Tour Players
Enter round data only on the new app
All round entry happens through the new app, which becomes the only supported path once the old app is retired next month.
Step 3Upgame
Preventing calculation discrepancies
1
Pin locations change while a player is mid-entry
If pin locations are changed while a player is mid-entry, the round data they're entering may end up measured against a different pin set than what they saw.
Suggested validation: warn the player that yardage may now differ, since the pins changed underneath them.
2
Round duplication
If a player accidentally tries to add the same round number again, nothing currently stops that duplicate entry.
Suggested validation: validate on add/update so a player can't accidentally create a duplicate round.
