Automate Trakt

What Trakt is

At Trakt, we collect lots of interesting information about what tv shows and movies everyone is watching. Part of the fun with such data is making it available for anyone to mash up and use on their own site or app. The Trakt API was made just for this purpose. It is very easy to use, you basically call a URL and get some JSON back. More complex API calls (such as adding a movie or show to your co

How automating Trakt works

1. Describe the outcome. Say what you want to happen, in your own words. No node graphs, no field mapping.
2. Approve the contract. HumDay writes down exactly what it will do, what it will touch, and what it will never do. You approve it before anything is built.
3. See it proven. The program runs and shows you the result before it is allowed near your live Trakt account.
4. Grant access, then go live. You approve the specific Trakt operations it may use — and only those.

Questions about Trakt automation

Can HumDay connect to Trakt?

Yes. HumDay reads Trakt's own published API description and derives the operations from it, so there is no hand-built connector to wait for. 183 operations are documented.

Do I need to write code to automate Trakt?

No. You describe the outcome you want in plain words. HumDay agrees a contract with you, writes the program, and shows you a test run before anything touches your Trakt account.

What can HumDay do in Trakt?

47 of the 183 documented operations change something in Trakt, and 136 read from it. HumDay only ever uses the specific operations your approved contract needs.

Is my Trakt account safe?

Your credentials are stored encrypted and are never shown in chat, code, or logs. Every run is limited to the operations you explicitly approved, and anything that writes to Trakt is held behind that approval.

Where this came from

The operations above are read from a published API description for Trakt at trakt.docs.apiary.io/api-description-document. Descriptions are the provider’s own words, not ours. Last published 2023-03-04.
