Getting started

Our Vista Cloud-hosted Integration Platform APIs empower you to create integration solutions to query data and update your operational cinema databases.

Access and support

If you'd like to get access for your cinema, or if you have any questions, please talk to your local Vista representative.

Authorisation

  • There are several mechanisms that provide authorisation for API requests. Any request that violates the authorisation configuration results in a 403: Forbidden response. Please refer to Authentication for more details.
  • Security configuration controlling authorisation for your tenant is performed by your Vista services representative.

Licensing

  • Certain API actions/endpoints may also validate licenses assigned to the requesting API user. Assigning a license to an organisation is performed by your Vista services representative.

Intended usage

Backend-only integrations

Unless otherwise specified, the Integration Platform APIs are designed to handle backend-to-backend data integration requirements where large payloads needs to be processed efficiently.

For direct customer facing applications such as sales web sites and mobile apps, please refer to the Vista Digital Platform API instead.

Rate limiting

Most Integration API endpoints enforce rate limits. Read more about rate limits.

Development environment

Integration development should only occur in sandbox environments. See Sandbox for further details.
