How to use Fandango APIs?

Question

I am trying to integrate with Fandango. I registered and created an API key on the portal, but the API key status is showing as "waiting" for two days.

I get an error like

Developer Inactive error.

Did you ever figure this out? I'm facing the same issue right now. – Burny

Same here, any solutions? Thanks. – Pinchcock

Support for it seems terrible, I scoured their website looking for any point of contact about this. Nothing. – Keturahkeung

@MasonWolters Sorry no luck...couldnt make it work... – Clintclintock

You shouldn't display your API key on the public internet. You should revoke that particular key, ASAP! – Tailwind

Answer 1

Fandango does not currently have a public API. There used to be a forum and somebody had asked about this. This is from memory, but they stated that they currently only offer the API to partners. Registration seems to be disabled now.

In the link, "Check out a summary of what we can help you offer your customers below." also suggests they only work with companies.

Answer 2

Fandango's API is now being managed and run by Gracenote. They no longer have a public API, and will not allow applications direct access unless there will be "significant ticket sales". Their affiliate program is being funnelled through CJ Affiliate. More information about the affiliate program can be found here, and more information about Gracenote can be found here. I hope this helps!
