General admission areas

Rate limits

This endpoint belongs to the priority lane.

To book general admission places (let's say 5), you can either:

  • pass in the label of the general admission area 5 times
  • or pass in the label of the general admission area and a quantity (e.g. 5)
Note

All GA places passed in to this API will be considered as "used seats" for pricing purposes.

Request without quantity

{
"objects": ["GA1", "GA1", "GA1", "GA1", "GA1"],
"status": "myCustomStatus"
}

Request with quantity

{
"objects": [{"objectId": "GA1", "quantity": 5}],
"status": "myCustomStatus"
}
Note

Seats.io differentiates between the technical label and displayed label for a bookable object. Changing the former in an active event can cause problems with existing bookings. Instead change displayed label, which is always safe. To learn more, see understanding labels

Temporarily holding places in a GA area

Holds for GA areas work in the same way as regular objects. Have a look at our documentation for more details.
