Sessionize API Setup

Before using this MCP server, you need to enable the public API for your Sessionize event.

Step 1: Access Your Event Dashboard

1. Log in to Sessionize
2. Select your event from the dashboard
3. Navigate to API / Embed in the left sidebar

Step 2: Enable the API

1. In the API section, toggle Enable API to ON
2. Choose the data visibility options:
   • Speakers - Enable to expose speaker information
   • Sessions - Enable to expose session details
   • Schedule - Enable to expose the event schedule

Step 3: Get Your Event ID

Your Event ID is displayed in the API endpoint URLs. It looks like this:

https://sessionize.com/api/v2/{EVENT_ID}/view/All

The {EVENT_ID} is an alphanumeric string (e.g., abc123xy).

Step 4: Test the API

Verify your API is working by opening these URLs in your browser:

• All data: https://sessionize.com/api/v2/{EVENT_ID}/view/All
• Speakers: https://sessionize.com/api/v2/{EVENT_ID}/view/Speakers
• Sessions: https://sessionize.com/api/v2/{EVENT_ID}/view/Sessions
• Schedule: https://sessionize.com/api/v2/{EVENT_ID}/view/GridSmart

If you see JSON data, your API is ready to use.

Important Notes

• The API only exposes accepted sessions and their speakers
• Draft or rejected sessions are not included
• Schedule data is only available if you've configured time slots in Sessionize
• The API is read-only and does not require authentication
