Localization

The viagogo API supports various request headers to return locale-specific content in responses.

Accept-Language Header

The Accept-Language header can be used to determine the language of the API response content (e.g. event names and error messages). Content will be returned in English if no Accept-Language header is provided, or viagogo does not currently support the requested language codes.

Accept-Language: da, en-gb;q=0.8, en;q=0.7

In the example header above, the request is specifying "I prefer Danish, but will accept British English and other types of English." See more information about the Accept-Language header.

VGG-Country Header

Applications can include the VGG-Country header to change the geography-context of requests. Each domain of the viagogo website is referred to as a geography that has its own category-structure and language, currency and content defaults. The value of the VGG-Country header should be a two-letter country code as defined by ISO 3166. If an application does not provide a VGG-Country header then the API will default to the US geography (www.viagogo.com).

VGG-Country: FR

In the example above, the application is specifying that it would like make requests in the French geography (as if the client were using the www.viagogo.fr website).
