VentesWeb API
Welcome to the Connect VentesWeb API documentation.
Overview
The Connect VentesWeb API is the REST rewrite of the legacy AparteConnectPlus SOAP web service. It provides a modern REST interface for building web sales channels on top of Tick&Live's ticketing platform:
- Catalog Management - Browse events, venues, rates and fees
- Cart & Order Processing - Build carts, allocate seats and confirm orders programmatically
- Identity - Authenticate and manage customer identity
- Media - Retrieve venue seating plan pictures
Base URLs
- Development:
http://localhost:5000
Authentication
The API uses JWT Bearer authentication. Provide your token in the Authorization header:
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer <your-jwt-token>" \
-H "x-tenant: your-tenant-id" \
http://localhost:5000/api/v1/catalog/events
The API is multi-tenant: every request must also include the x-tenant header containing your tenant ID.
See the Authentication Guide for details.
Rate Limits
The API enforces rate limits to ensure fair usage:
- Catalog endpoints: 100 requests/minute
- Cart & Order endpoints: 20 requests/minute
- Overall: 1000 requests/hour
See Rate Limits for details and best practices.
Response Format
All responses are JSON. Successful responses return data in the following format:
{
"events": [...],
"pagination": {...}
}
Errors follow the RFC 7807 Problem Details format:
{
"type": "https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7231#section-6.5.1",
"title": "Bad Request",
"status": 400,
"detail": "Error description"
}
API Versioning
The current API version is v1. Version information is included in response headers:
API-Version: 1.0
