Request access

Credentials are issued on request by a person. There is no self-service signup, and dynamic client registration is disabled.

Everything under discovery is anonymous — the catalogue, routes, vehicle classes, policies and quote requirements all answer without a token. You can evaluate a good deal of the surface before asking anyone for anything.

What to send

Email info@swisstouristy.com with API access in the subject and these five things. It is a short list because each item genuinely changes the answer.

  1. Who you are. The legal entity that will hold the credential, and a technical contact we can reach about it.
  2. What you are building. A couple of sentences. Whether you are quoting inside a chat product, a booking tool or an internal system changes which scopes make sense.
  3. Which protocol. REST, MCP, or both. MCP additionally needs the discovery scope at the transport level, which REST-only integrations never use.
  4. Which scopes. Name them. Least privilege is enforced, so asking for all of them when you only quote will slow the conversation down rather than speed it up.
    • checkout:prepareHand a traveler to Swiss Touristy's hosted checkout for a live quote of your own. Creates no booking and takes no payment.
    • discoveryConnect to the MCP server. Required by the MCP transport on every connection; no REST operation requires it, and the REST discovery endpoints are anonymous.
    • quote:createCreate a quote of your own.
    • quote:read-ownRead a quote you created. Never another caller's.
  5. Rough volume. Quotes per day, order of magnitude. This is about whether the published rate limits fit you, not a commitment.

What you get back

A client id and secret for the Auth0 tenant, scoped to what you asked for. The secret is shown once and never stored in a form we can read back to you, so keep it somewhere before you close the message. From there, authentication has the token exchange and the quickstart has four calls that end in a real price.

What a credential does not grant

No booking, payment, refund, cancellation or amendment capability exists on this surface for any credential. The traveler completes payment on Swiss Touristy's own checkout. If your product needs to write a booking directly, that is a different conversation and not something a scope can turn on.
