Install Jentic One Beta

Connect the LotaData to your agent

Jentic One is a self-hosted execution layer for AI agents. It lets your agent call the LotaData, or any other public or private API you need. You set the rules, the agent never sees your credentials, and every call is logged.

Two steps, two machines. Install the instance in a safe environment, then register your agent from wherever it runs.

Step 1: Jentic One Host machine

# On the machine that will host your Jentic One instance:
curl -fsSL "https://jentic.com/install.sh?src=apis&api=%2Fapis%2Flotadata.com%2Flotadata" | sh

Step 2: Agent machine

# On the machine where your agent runs (keep this separate from the instance):
curl -fsSL "https://jentic.com/install.sh?src=apis&api=%2Fapis%2Flotadata.com%2Flotadata" | sh
jentic register       # connects your agent to your Jentic One instance

Jentic One is in public beta. The setup above keeps your agent separate from the instance, which is what you want before using real credentials: an agent running as the same OS user as Jentic One can read its stored keys directly. Just evaluating? A single local install is fine to start. See the secure deployment guide for the tiers.

Use Cases

Patterns agents use LotaData API for, with concrete tasks.

★ Discover events near a location

Planning around what is happening in an area starts with finding local events. The LotaData API returns event occurrences in a geographic area, so an application can surface concerts, activities, and gatherings near a point. Each result carries a location and category the caller can filter on.

Find event occurrences near the given location and return them.

Look up event details

Once an event is identified, an application often needs its full record. The LotaData API retrieves the details of a specific event by its identifier, returning the information needed to display or act on it. This lets an application enrich a listing without a second data source.

Retrieve the details for a specific event by its identifier.

Search places and venues

Mapping activity to real-world locations needs place data. The LotaData API searches venues, landmarks, and regions and returns the details of a specific place, so an application can attach a venue to an event or answer a place query. Results include the geographic context of each place.

Search for a venue or landmark and return its details.

Agent-driven event discovery

An AI agent can find local events for a user without a developer wiring each call. Through Jentic the agent matches an intent such as 'what events are near this location' to the LotaData events operation, runs it, and returns the matches. The API key stays in the user's Jentic One instance and never reaches the agent's prompt.

Find events near the requested location and return the matching occurrences.

Key Endpoints

4 endpoints — the lotadata api returns geocoded events and places across categories and genres.

Why Jentic?

What agents get from Jentic-routed access to this vendor.

Setup

Wiring LotaData yourself means managing an API key and handling each events and places query. With Jentic you install once, import LotaData from the API Directory, and store the key a single time.

Permission scoping

Jentic lets you grant your agent only the operations it needs, such as reading events and places, and enforces that on every call.

Credential isolation

Your LotaData API key is stored once, encrypted, by your own Jentic One instance. It is injected when a call runs and never enters the agent's prompt, logs, or context.

Intent-based discovery

Agents find LotaData through Jentic's intent search, matching a request like 'find events near this place' to the right operation without hardcoded endpoints.

FAQs

Specific to using LotaData API through Jentic.

What can an AI agent do with the LotaData API through Jentic?

An agent can find events near a location, read event details, search places, and read place details. Through Jentic the agent matches an intent to the right operation and runs it with your API key injected at execution time.

How do I authenticate with the LotaData API?

LotaData authenticates requests with an API key passed as the api_key query parameter. You store the key once in your Jentic One instance, and it is added to each call at run time rather than exposed to the agent.

Can LotaData filter events by category?

Yes. The events search accepts a location and returns occurrences that carry category and genre information, so an application can narrow results to the kinds of events it cares about. Each event also includes its place context.

Does the LotaData API document rate limits?

The OpenAPI specification does not state rate limits; request allowances depend on your LotaData plan. Check the current limits for your account in LotaData's documentation.

Can I control which LotaData operations my agent can call?

Yes. Jentic lets you allow only the operations your agent needs, for example searching events and places while withholding others. Your Jentic One instance enforces that boundary on every call and keeps the API key outside the agent's context.

For Agents

Find geocoded events in an area, look up event details, search places, and retrieve place details.

Use for: Find events happening near a location, Get the details of a specific event, Search for a venue or landmark, Get the details of a specific place

Not supported: Reads geocoded events and places from LotaData; it does not create or edit events, sell tickets, or manage the underlying dataset.

The LotaData API returns geocoded events and places across categories and genres. It finds event occurrences in an area, retrieves the details of a specific event, searches venues, landmarks, and regions, and returns the details of a specific place. Responses are JSON, so an agent can discover what is happening near a location or look up a venue without maintaining its own events dataset.
