@mihirmodiofficial unfortunately the Yahoo Fantasy Sports API does not provide (and never has provided) access to projected points. Yahoo uses a third party service for their player point projections, and my understanding is that as part of that arrangement Yahoo does not make that data accessible via API.

If you want to pull the projections your best bet is probably web scraping, which for ease of use would likely require you to make your league public so that you can access the HTML. Good luck!

@mihirmodiofficial, you could get the player projected points using ffbot (https://github.com/amarvin/fantasy-football-bot).
