Media Type

The API uses Hypertext Application Language (HAL) to hyperlink between resources. HAL is a simple format that provides a set of conventions for expressing hyperlinks in JSON - it's basically just plain old JSON with hyperlinks!

All StubHub API resources are represented using the application/hal+json media type. The following properties can be expected on every resource:

  • _links - a JSON object containing a set of hyperlinks to other resources
  • _embedded - a JSON object containing other resources embedded inside the current resource
  • The regular properties of the resource
