Create a new booking

This is the basic workflow how to create a new booking over the api.

1. Create a customer

If you don’t have an existing customer you want to use, create a new one.

POST https://api.ticketpark.ch/persons/

{
    "salutation": "m",
    "firstname": "Tom",
    "lastname": "Tomson",
    "email": "tom@tomsons.com",
    "address": {
        "country": "CH",
        "address1": "Testweg 10",
        "address2": "",
        "zip": "3000",
        "city": "Bern"
    }
}

Hint

In the response look for the Location header field to get the newly created pid.

2. Create a booking

Create a booking and add the customer to it.

POST https://api.ticketpark.ch/bookings/

{
    "customer": "{pid of person from request 1}"
}

3. Reserve two tickets

Add some tickets to the booking. Note how in this example we create two tickets with just one request.

A tickets is defined by

• a price
• a show
• a sector or a seat

In this example we assume you already have your event set up and you know the pids of your prices, shows and sectors.

POST https://api.ticketpark.ch/tickets/

[
{
    "booking": "{pid of booking from request 2}",
    "show": "{pid of a show}",
    "price": "{pid of a price}",
    "sector": "{pid of a sector}"
},
{
    "booking": "{pid of booking from request 2}",
    "show": "{pid of a show}",
    "price": "{pid of a price}",
    "sector": "{pid of a sector}"
}
]

4. Confirm booking

Every booking needs to be confirmed. Tickets of unconfirmed bookings will be released again after 30 minutes.

PATCH https://api.ticketpark.ch/bookings/{pid of booking from request 2}

{
    "confirmation": true
}

5. Send confirmation email

Optionally, you can send the confirmation mail for the booking you just created.

POST https://api.ticketpark.ch/email/send

{
    "booking": "{pid of booking from request 2}",
    "type": "confirmation"
}
