Catalogue Endpoints

Spektrix calls the catalogue endpoints when the client's staff import events from your source system, and when they map ticket types and price bands. These endpoints tell Spektrix what's on sale. They don't cover availability or prices, which come from the availability endpoints.

An import calls the endpoints in this order:

List instances​

GET instances?startFrom={startFrom}&startTo={startTo}

Lists the instances (performances) that the agent can sell in a date range. This is where every import starts.

Query parameterRequiredDescription
startFromYesReturn instances starting on or after this local date and time, for example 2026-03-01T00:00:00.
startToNoReturn instances starting on or before this local date and time. If it's omitted, return everything from startFrom onwards.

Return cancelled instances as well, with cancelled set to true, so Spektrix can mark them as cancelled. If an instance that was imported earlier no longer appears in the response, Spektrix treats it as removed.

Example request
