API for Seat Map

[Chen Yaw Lee]

Hi,

I have a question about Create Seat Map through API. I found the API https://www.eventbrite.com/platform/api#/reference/seat-map/create-seat-map-for-event. It is just upload a seat map image to eventbrite? How to make the customer can choose the seat if only upload a image? Need some advise. 

Many Thank

If I understand this correctly, the seat map they are referring to is not an image, but must be a seat map you have already created.  I am working on a complex seating map, and there are no provisions to import an image, I have to create the entire thing by hand.  This is what I am trying to recreate - https://www.masseyslanding.com/sites/default/files/inline-images/Masseys-Landing-2021-Site-Map.jpg

This is as far as I gave gotten so far - https://snipboard.io/YNbX9S.jpg

thank for your reply!

It is has a way using API to create a seat map to an event? or must create a seat map in eventbrite dashboard, then just use API link the existing seat map to new event?

Thanks!

Here is the API reference: https://www.eventbrite.com/platform/api#/reference/seat-map/retrieve-an-attendee?console=1

According to the doc, you must already have the seat map created, and this will link the seat map to the event:

"Create a Seat Map for a new reserved seating event by copying an existing seat map. Event must be a new reserved seating. Once a seat map is already created for the event, this endpoint will return error. List Seat Maps by Organization can be used to find source seat maps and their IDs. "
