✅ Create an App

To use the Trakt API, you'll first need to create a new API app.

Once done, you'll have everything you need to use the API (Client ID and Client Secret).

By creating an app, you agree to the following terms:

  • All branding requirements must be followed.
  • Trakt data cannot be used in apps or websites that promote copyright infringement or piracy.
  • Trakt data is provided as is with no warranty. We don't offer any legal protection and Trakt can't be held liable for the actions of your app.
  • Your account email and app information must be kept up to date so we can contact you if needed.
  • All API announcements and discussions take place in the GitHub developer community.
  • It is required to watch and subscribe to notifications in the repository so we can announce to all developers at once.
  • Use only documented API methods and please don't scrape the website for information.
  • Please don't create additional API apps to avoid rate limits or other API restrictions we put in place.
  • Be a good API developer and remember the API is shared by a lot of apps. Make sure to effectively cache data and keep your API hits as low as you can. Optimized API usage helps everyone!
