Ticket holders

After a customer has selected a valid ticket option and timeslot for a date, they are ready to select a ticket holder from the products property of the timeslot:

[
	{
		"groups": [
			{
				[...],
				"slots": [
					{
						"time": "09:00",
						"languages": [],
						"products": [
							{
								"holder_code_normalized": "ADULT",
								"holder_code": "adult",
								"name": "Adult",
								"type": "musement",
								"default": false,
								"product_id": "4445101704",
								[...]
							},
							{
								"holder_code_normalized": "CHILDREN",
								"holder_code": "child",
								"name": "Child (3-17)",
								"type": "musement",
								"default": false,
								"product_id": "4445101704",
								[...]
							}
						],
						"tags": []
					},
					[...]
				]
			},
			[...]
		]
	}
]

A ticket holder usually refers to the type of person purchasing the activity.

Each ticket holder has a type property and unique product_id, both of which are important pieces of information needed for adding a holder to cart. A product_id refers to everything the customer has selected so far:

• Date
• Timeslot
• Ticket option
• Ticket holder

A ticket holder also contains all relevant price information for the product. For more information on prices, please refer to the activity prices section.

The available ticket holders may vary, depending on the activity configuration, pickup parameter (if applicable), the selected date and timeslot.

product_id

Be aware that the product_id may be a numeric value or a string, depending on the activity configuration. In the example response below, the identifier is a string:

[...]
{
	"holder_code": "standard-price",
	"name": "Standard price",
	"type": "musement-realtime",
	"default": false,
	"product_id": "HruSLWn9fIB9Y8Z8L0/9ritXa7+REpxL9g7drGds1wNH3pcRaR91BKVdJGwuRv6JBg1bJvhTjcQRYzbl/W84dMK2B5wMLGhrHd6jSRBSenMFJ8E+W3j9pHkeqLejqGgIw66Ft00mcUQBfLhPgp6zOKlJuy4YfOMUXLSatCWlM0MtGi57HQ+6GxqCxcetgmg/BvLV1P4c8fVuvuZNhBhT815MKYFANews1zykD1iRTwtd9xiKV7URlbXioUtu9pKZKkmo+Z2icacVnqd+w9S2bgeHPKGosVXOdb1KOP2aq+HxEA6WC9KSwV4nlf8TS8fZ7rDQhu44hVy0U8SAcDEIhmt2OjzmdRoFFhjZdI8ud9W01rQXSKmElOlGXIkt2H2Rt6TNmctDFxHWHnvoPSqc2K7G9Tj4tbWbIAuj2BubaKRW4Q5oiJslnZJ07IufGHWmf9O7PqtAtQP+iGGqvy2C4cC5NYvMxq99DyYLBgJBiDE0rpbot1iTG73UTndGLTXJ3GWQNLOLyJEHGCddxCL2JEllTprXqrL3qo3Ca2h3q6yntmgCrZQOhJjtu3JgdBVB0vDmi15AtuNhS+YoekHzkMMaU2lNNNfaomDtAunHpKlGjotenbECziNV8lpnvNZPlY9eYzWvCihYJRw+A8u2T3zsHmxcClilkSG+3lWx2igYSufmWsjXH1N14YJHyHCvDZsP/u1EauF9+QABduQjoCa6bJAzDX12VZ5r7kToGNhUxOHmjGphYR4V6XAbUn8Lrr5mgd97xDegYKK3lXuzj/B0G2p5t4e/9ceO",

}
[...]

The lengthy identifier in the example above is due to the activity's configuration. Notice that the type property has a value of musement-realtime. Certain activities are connected to other API platforms via a realtime integration. Availability is fetched directly from the activity's API in the moment of the request in order to offer the most up-to-date information.

While available dates and products may remain the same, product identifiers can change for any type of activity, realtime or not. You are encouraged to regularly check these endpoints rather than caching product identifiers. However, be aware that certain activity APIs have rate limits and making calls too frequently can lead to errors.

For more information on caching, check out the dedicated section.

Name

The name property contains the word or phrase used for the holder. Usually this contains words such as adult or child but could also be terms like number of rooms or 10 people (price per person), depending on the needs of the activity provider. The property may also contain an age range, language or important restrictions.

By default, the name property is in English. You can modify this using the Accept-Language header.

Due to the vast range of possible ticket holders, we have added the holder_code_normalized property to guide partners in understanding the type of holder.

The holder_code_normalized property will contain one of the following values:

• ADULT
• CHILDREN
• CUSTOM
• FAMILY
• GROUP
• INFANT
• REGULAR
• SENIOR
• STUDENT

Partners are free to choose which property they would like to show customers. The name property corresponds to the exact term used by activity providers while the holder_code_normalized property gives a more standardized word to describe the holder.
