Reservations

Calendar reservations (reservation) API lists reservartions of specific rooms and implementations. Reservation contains basic information like date and list of “resources”, which can be rooms and implementations.

Related to reservation API, there is buildings and rooms (building) method described in the bottom of this page, which lists campus building and class room information.

Get information about single reservation

Simple GET request can be used, if the ID of the reservation is known:

curl -u "<API key>:" https://opendata.tamk.fi/r1/reservation/180733

Wider reservation search

Notice that reservations for course unit implemantions could have been made either for the implementation or the group, or both.

Usually both, group and implementation, are recorded in the reservation information. If you want to find all reservations for certain group, you can search just by specifying the group.

You can if certain period is free, or what reservations are for that period, using time frame search (rangeStart, rangeEnd).

Example: find reservations for certain course unit implementations:

curl -u "<API key>:" -X POST https://opendata.tamk.fi/r1/reservation/search -d '{
   "realization":["4-AOT5-3002", "4-ATV10-3002"]
}'

Example: reservations for certain student group. Notice that it is not possible to search for different implementations and groups with the same request, because the search term is “AND” between different fields.

curl -u "<API key>:" -X POST https://opendata.tamk.fi/r1/reservation/search -d '{
   "studentGroup":["13TIKOOT"]
}'

Example: find all reservation, which are effective on the 22nd of October between 9 o’clock and 10 o’clock in the given building. The reservation could have been started before 9, and it can continue after 10.

curl -u "<API key>:" -X POST https://opendata.tamk.fi/r1/reservation/search -d '{
   "rangeStart": "2014-10-22T09:00",
   "rangeEnd": "2014-10-22T10:00",
   "building": ["C-talo"]
}'

Example: find what studies are during the given time frame. You can search for reservations that begin after certain date and time. Gather individual implementations and class rooms from the response. You can also add search term for building, if you want only studies in specific campus or building.

curl -u "<API key>:" -X POST https://opendata.tamk.fi/r1/reservation/search -d '{
   "startDate": "2014-10-27T09:00",
   "endDate": "2014-10-27T15:00",
   "building": ["A-talo"]
}'

Example: reservations for the specific room during the specified time period:

curl -u "<API key>:" -X POST https://opendata.tamk.fi/r1/reservation/search -d '{
   "startDate":"2014-10-27T08:00",
   "endDate":"2014-10-27T18:00",
   "room":["C4-12"]
}'

curl -u "<API key>:" https://opendata.tamk.fi/r1/reservation/building

Then you can list all rooms in the specific building:

curl -u "<API key>:" https://opendata.tamk.fi/r1/reservation/building/8
