Parameters
type(string, required) — Must be"outcomeMeta"
Returns
Returns an object with two arrays:Outcomes
An array of live outcome markets. Each entry contains:outcome(integer) — Outcome id. Used together with the side index to derive the asset encoding.name(string) — Human-readable market name (for example,"Recurring"for the recurring BTC daily binary, or a custom name for one-off markets).description(string) — For recurring binary markets, a pipe-separatedkey:valuestring withclass,underlying,expiry,targetPrice,period(for example,"class:priceBinary|underlying:BTC|expiry:20260504-0600|targetPrice:78213|period:1d"). For other market types, free-form text.sideSpecs(array) — Two-element array describing the YES (index 0) and NO (index 1) sides. Each element has anamefield.
Questions
An array of categorical multi-outcome questions (testnet only at the time of writing — mainnet returns an empty array). Each entry contains:question(integer) — Question id.name(string) — Question text.description(string) — Free-form description.fallbackOutcome(integer) — Outcome id used if none of the named outcomes matches.namedOutcomes(array of integers) — Outcome ids for the named legs.settledNamedOutcomes(array of integers) — Outcome ids that have already settled.
Asset encoding
outcomeMeta does not return per-side coin strings or asset ids. Compute them client-side from outcome and side (0 for YES, 1 for NO):
1, side 0), the encoding is 10, the trade coin is #10, the balance coin is +10, and the asset id is 100_000_010.

Use cases
- Market discovery — enumerate every live outcome market and its side names before placing orders.
- Settlement parser — read
descriptionto extract theexpiryandtargetPricefor binary price-based markets. - Categorical markets — list named legs of a
questionand their settled status (testnet). - Inventory reconciliation — track which
outcomeids are still live so you can mark settled positions out of your book.
