TitlePage is an online bibliographic and price and availability service for the Australian book industry. This guide provides comprehensive information about our legacy SOAP API service as well as our modern RESTful web services.
Our legacy SOAP API service provides general information and price/availability data for a specific title using an ISBN-13 search. On the other hand, our modern RESTful web services offer a wider range of functionality, including single and multiple ISBN searches and access to prebuilt record collections, such as new release files for all TitlePage publishers and various promotional title selections. Additionally, the new REST services provide a function for publishers to provide more regular or live stock updates. Booksellers can also provide their stock levels to help readers locate products at their local bookshops.
This guide is designed to help you make the most of both the legacy SOAP API and modern RESTful web services. We provide detailed technical information, such as how to use the TitlePage RESTful web services using our Swagger document, as well as a description of the available endpoints and their associated parameters and responses.
Please note that while the TitlePage APIs are available to all TitlePage booksellers, what you need to know about getting started depends on the systems you are using, what you are trying to achieve, and your technical expertise.
If you are using a commercially available Point of Sale (POS) system, you should contact your POS provider to find out whether they already support an integration to the TitlePage web services, or whether it can support a custom integration. Additionally, we recommend that all new integrations use our RESTful web services, which are simpler and more flexible than our SOAP API services.
We hope that this guide will help you make the most of TitlePage’s offerings. If you have any questions or need further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact us at titlepage@publishers.asn.au.
