Steps
Purchase a Golf-Course Database package and subscribe to the Automatic Updates service to receive API username/password credentials
Authenticate every call with HTTP Basic Auth over HTTPS (plain HTTP is refused) against api.golf-course-database.com:8000, or the staging host for testing
Request the current version explicitly via the Accept-Version header (e.g. Accept-Version: ~1) rather than relying on default-latest behavior
Pull the /clubs, /courses, and /tees collections, using ?fields=... to limit payload and ?page/?per_page (max 500) to paginate, following the Link header's rel="next" rather than constructing your own URLs
Use ?updated_since or ?since, plus the /deleted-clubs, /deleted-courses, and /deleted-tees endpoints, to fetch only what changed since your last sync
Known gotchas
This is a read-only API — only HEAD and GET are supported; there is no way to push corrections back, only to pull the vendor's canonical data
Credentials require a paid database purchase plus an Automatic Updates subscription — it is not a free/self-serve key
The Link header's next/last rel values are absent once you're already on the final page, which can be mistaken for an error if your client expects them unconditionally
