Connect Bandsintown

Sync your upcoming shows automatically

If you keep your tour dates on Bandsintown, Setcraft can pull your upcoming shows in for you instead of you typing each one by hand. New shows are added; ones you already have are left alone. To set it up you give Setcraft two things: your Bandsintown artist name and a Bandsintown API key.

What you need

A Bandsintown for Artists profile for your act, and the API key Bandsintown issues for it. The key is free and tied to that one artist profile.

Get your Bandsintown API key

Bandsintown issues the key from your artist account, not from Setcraft:

  1. Sign in to Bandsintown for Artists and select your artist profile.
  2. Open Settings, then General.
  3. Choose Get API Key to create one, or Copy API Key if you already have one.

Bandsintown keeps the authoritative version of these steps in their own help: What is the Bandsintown API? If their screens look different from the above, follow theirs, since they own that part.

Add it to Setcraft

  1. Open Shows, then click Sync from Bandsintown.
  2. Enter your Bandsintown artist name exactly as it appears on your Bandsintown profile.
  3. Paste your API key, then click Sync Shows.

Setcraft saves the name and key to the active artist profile, so you only enter them once. After that, syncing is one click from the Shows page. If you run more than one act in Setcraft, each artist profile has its own Bandsintown connection.

What Setcraft reads

Only your public upcoming events from Bandsintown, to create matching shows in your library. Setcraft does not post anything to Bandsintown or change your profile.

If a sync fails

Check that the artist name matches your Bandsintown profile and that the key was copied in full. If it still fails, email [email protected] and we'll take a look.
