Note for the hackathon: the mandatory API is Athena NDC 19.2

IATA provides several sandboxes:

Athena — NDC 19.2 / ONE Order 18.2
Kronos — 17.2
Zeus — NDC 17.2 / ONE Order 18.2
(beta) JSON Athena 19.2 — proof-of-concept transformation layer in front of Athena
(beta) JSON Kronos 17.2 — proof-of-concept transformation layer in front of Kronos
(alpha) GraphQL Kronos 17.2 — proof-of-concept GraphQL NDC API providing a subset of Kronos functionalities: information on GitHub

How to connect and use the IATA XML Sandboxes?

First, you need an API key (unique for all sandboxes). You can get one here or manage your existing Mashery keys.

Then, simply send HTTP POST requests to:

Athena 19.2: http://iata.api.mashery.com/athena/ndc192api
Kronos 17.2: http://iata.api.mashery.com/kronos/ndc172api
Zeus: http://iata.api.mashery.com/zeus

Including:

A raw body including a valid NDC (or ONE Order, with Zeus) RQ. i.e. AirShoppingRQ
An HTTP header with Content-Type: application/xml
An HTTP header with a valid Authorization-Key: vsh6he647b35sxxxxxxxxxxxx.

The best way to try our new 19.2 sandbox is to use the samples here!

Testing tools and test materials

Try our JSON APIs (beta)! (19.2 & 17.2)

This is a simple prototype of a JSON-XML-JSON transformation layer in front of our sandboxes. It is not part of the NDC standards.
