[Bug]: How to get the list of in season tournament games?

[jaratec]

NBA API Version

1.4.1

Issue

How can I use the leaguegamefinder endpoint to get the list of in-season tournament games? The following code snippet does not work.
Also, are the valid values for season_type_nullable parameter documented?

Code

from nba_api.stats.endpoints import leaguegamefinder

gamefinder = leaguegamefinder.LeagueGameFinder(season_nullable='2023-24',
league_id_nullable='00',
season_type_nullable='IST', # what are the valid values? 'Regular Season', 'IST', 'PlayIn', 'Playoffs'
player_or_team_abbreviation='T')

Was a solution ever found by any chance?

@jaratec / @sebasdarius - What are you looking for out of these calls? A PR was merged last year for In Season Tournaments (#363).

Notes:

1. The NBA is retiring some endpoints (this could be one that is targeted, and thus not updated)
2. Usually, I can find these endpoints used throughout the UI on stats.nba.com. I wasn't able to locate this one. If you have a link, please post it. That'll help verify if IST is supported or not.

I saw that on a few areas of the NBA with drop-down fields on stats, the "NBA Cup" (aka In Season Tournament) wasn't present. That gives me an indication that it may not be supported in all cases.

Here's a Postman call I use. When I used IST if obviously failed.

from nba_api.stats.library.parameters import SeasonTypeAllStar
from nba_api.stats.endpoints import leaguegamefinder, playbyplayv2, boxscoretraditionalv2
def get_game_ids(start_date, end_date):
    # Get all games for the specified season
    gamefinder = leaguegamefinder.LeagueGameFinder(
        season_nullable='2023-24', season_type_nullable=SeasonTypeAllStar.regular
    )
    games = gamefinder.get_data_frames()[0]

This code worked for me still if it helps anyone
