Platform Documentation

Everything you need to build on the only live-event data platform with real fan identity, verified attendance, and on-chain loyalty.

Quick Start

Install the SDK and make your first call in under a minute.

# TypeScript / JavaScript
npm install @revolution/sdk

# Python
pip install revolution-fan
import { Revolution } from '@revolution/sdk';

const rev = new Revolution({ apiKey: 'rev_live_xxxx' });

// Discover tonight's events in Austin
const { items } = await rev.events.list({ region: 'atx', featured: true });
console.log(items[0].title); // "Khruangbin at Stubb's"

Get your API key at the developers portal. Free keys include read access to events, artists, and venues. Pro and Enterprise keys unlock commerce, marketplace queries, and the Event Stream.

Try the Sandbox, No Key Required

Want to explore the Data Marketplace before signing up? The public sandbox lets you run live queries against synthetic fan data with no API key.
