info:
  title: AMC Theatres Barcodes Showtimes API
  description: 'The AMC Theatres API is a public REST API published by AMC Entertainment Holdings

    that exposes data and transactional capabilities for AMC theatres, movies, showtimes,

    locations, loyalty, concessions, orders, refunds, media, and webhooks. It is intended

    for partner integrations such as movie discovery, ticket sales, dine-in / express pickup

    concession ordering, AMC Stubs loyalty integrations, and entertainment listings on

    third-party sites and apps.


    Authentication is performed by sending a vendor API key in the `X-AMC-Vendor-Key`

    request header. Responses follow a HAL-style envelope (`pageSize`, `pageNumber`,

    `count`, `_embedded`, `_links`) for collections.


    This OpenAPI definition was reconstructed from the public AMC Developer Portal

    documentation (developers.amctheatres.com) and known integrations. The dev portal

    blocks automated retrieval, so this spec was assembled from third-party mirrors

    of the AMC documentation and verified against open-source AMC API clients.'
