Getting Started
This page will help you get started with Travel Connection. You'll be up and running in a jiffy!
Introduction
The Travel Connection API is REST based with several JSON endpoints that will allow you to search our product inventory and place orders. The API endpoints can be found in the API Reference section.
Rate Limiting
API requests are limited to 60 per minute. By following our recommended implementation process below, this amount of requests should be sufficient for all API users.
Implementation recommendations
- Update and store all static data once per day
- Use the product search endpoint to discover any new or updated product since the last time that you searched (run once per hour)
- Add any returned products to a queue
- Process the queue of products to load the product details and update your system’s products
- Every minute, call the inventory-status endpoint in bulk to get all the ticket categories and prices for all TC products
- Put the response on a queue
- Process the queue to update all the products in your system
Sandbox
We provide a sandbox environment that can be used prior to deploying your integration into your production environment. The URL for the Sandbox can be seen below. Note that your credentials for the Production API and Sandbox may be different.
