Searching by city name instead of zip code when a radius is given

  1. I search for bands specifying the zip code 02421 with a radius=2, which is Lexington MA, but the results i receive back include venues in Lexington KY, about 1,000 miles away. It works fine when I don't specify a radius.

    The URL is http://api.jambase.com/search?zip=02421&radius=2&apikey=<mykey>.

    Thanks Steveres, there is a clearly an issue with the zip code for a venue or two. We'll look into this right away and get back to you to fix it up!

    How do you get results with a foreign zip code? For Amsterdam I get "1100 DL" from JamBase on other shows. But when i search for a zip code "1100 DL" I don't get any results.

    I've got the same problems for searching on non USA zip codes that you give in response. Search can not be done by them.
    Anyway, is there any way to search by venue ID, venue name or location name, ID? not just only by zip codes?

    Thank you for your question.

    The JamBase API currently only supports US ZIP code searching. We hope to add international postal code support in the future.

    You can search by an individual venueID by simply passing in venueID=123 (where 123 is the venueID of the venue as it appears in the other XML responses)

    Let us know if you have any questions.
