API Overview
Expert Admins only
The ARTSVP REST API connects event and guest data to websites, CRMs, access systems, and other internal tools — the ongoing integration you reach for when point-in-time CSV exports stop being enough. Version 3 is the current API, and the complete endpoint and payload reference is at docs.artsvp.com. Only organisation admins manage API access.
Authentication
- Go to Settings → Developer.
- Under API Authentication, click Generate Token.
- Copy the token when it appears and store it in your secret manager. It is shown once.
- Send it in the
Authorizationheader on HTTPS requests to the v3 API.
Regenerating the token stops the previous token immediately, so update every client before making the new token the only stored copy. A token grants organisation-level data access: never put one in browser code, a public repository, or a booking-page script. API requests must use HTTPS in production.
What version 3 supports
| Resource | Capabilities |
|---|---|
| Events | List events; get one event with tickets, extras, and availability. |
| Collections | List collections; get one collection and its events. |
| Invitations | List, filter, create, update, delete, and batch-create by resource tag. |
| Bookings | List, filter, get, create, and update bookings. |
Lists support pagination and resource-specific filters. Public IDs identify resources in API paths and payloads.
Version 3 exposes the resources above, not every admin action. Confirm in the endpoint reference that an operation is supported before designing an integration around it.
Rate limits
The API allows 1,000 requests per 15-minute window per organisation. A client that exceeds the limit is paused for five minutes. Read the rate-limit response headers and back off before the remaining count reaches zero.
Webhooks
Use webhooks when your system should react as ARTSVP activity happens rather than polling the API. Under Settings → Developer, add an HTTPS endpoint, choose the events it receives, and monitor its status. See the webhook reference for payloads.
