For Agents
Programmatically get dvd releases, get movies. Covers 183 operations with oauth2 authentication.
Use for: I need to dvd releases, I want to movies, Search for new shows, Find all season premieres
Not supported: Does not handle payments, crm, or developer tools - use for communications only.
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. The API exposes 183 endpoints secured with oauth2 authentication.
Install Jentic One Beta
Connect the Trakt API to your agent
Jentic One is a self-hosted execution layer for AI agents. It lets your agent call the Trakt API, 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://raw.githubusercontent.com/jentic/jentic-one/main/tools/install.sh | sh2
Step 2: Agent machine
# On the machine where your agent runs (keep this separate from the instance):
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jentic/jentic-one/main/tools/install.sh | sh
jentic register # connects your agent to your Jentic One instanceJentic 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.
Capabilities
What an agent can do with Trakt API.
Get DVD releases
Manage communications data programmatically
Integrate Trakt API into automated workflows
Query and filter Trakt API records by parameters
Monitor Trakt API operational status and events
Use Cases
Patterns agents use Trakt API for, with concrete tasks.
★ Communications Operations
Use the Trakt API to perform communications operations programmatically. The API provides 183 endpoints covering core functionality including get dvd releases, get movies, get new shows.
Call GET /calendars/all/dvd/{start_date}/{days} to get dvd releases
Automated Authentication - OAuth Management
Automate authentication - oauth operations by combining multiple Trakt API endpoints. Agents can get movies and then get new shows in a single workflow.
Call GET /calendars/all/movies/{start_date}/{days} to get movies, then verify the result
AI Agent Integration via Jentic
AI agents discover and call Trakt API endpoints through Jentic without managing credentials directly. An agent searches for the required operation by intent, receives the matching endpoint schema, and executes the call with Jentic-managed authentication. This eliminates the need to read API documentation or handle oauth2 tokens manually.
Search Jentic for 'get dvd releases', load the operation schema, and execute with Jentic-managed credentials

Why Jentic?
Three things that make agents converge on Jentic-routed access.
Credential isolation
Your Trakt OAuth2 credential is stored once, encrypted, by your own Jentic One instance and injected at execution time. It never enters the agent's prompt, logs, or context.
Intent-based discovery
Agents search Jentic by intent such as 'get upcoming DVD releases' or 'list new show premieres', and Jentic returns the matching Trakt API operation with its input schema so the agent calls the right endpoint without browsing the reference docs.

FAQs
Specific to using Trakt API through Jentic.
What authentication does the Trakt API use?
The Trakt API uses OAuth 2.0 for authorization. Through Jentic, these credentials are stored encrypted in your Jentic One instance and injected at execution time, so raw secrets never enter the agent context.
Can I get dvd releases with the Trakt API?
Yes. Use the GET /calendars/all/dvd/{start_date}/{days} endpoint. The API returns structured JSON responses that agents can parse and act on directly.
What are the rate limits for the Trakt API?
Rate limits are not specified in the OpenAPI spec. Check the vendor documentation for current limits. Through Jentic, rate limiting is handled automatically with retry logic built into the execution layer.
How do I get dvd releases through Jentic?
Install the Jentic SDK with pip install jentic, authenticate through Jentic One, the self-hosted execution layer, then search for 'get dvd releases'. Jentic returns the matching Trakt API operation with its input schema. Load the schema and execute the call - credentials are injected automatically.
How many endpoints does the Trakt API have?
The Trakt API exposes 183 endpoints covering authentication - oauth, authentication - devices, calendars operations.
Can I limit what my agent is allowed to do with the Trakt API?
Yes. Because Jentic One is self-hosted, your own rules decide which Trakt operations and credentials the agent may use. Since the Trakt calendar operations key off the authenticated user rather than a resource id in the path, you allow only the endpoints the workflow needs, such as reading all-DVD releases at GET /calendars/all/dvd/{start_date}/{days} or all-movie releases at GET /calendars/all/movies/{start_date}/{days}. You can leave out the personal calendar reads under /calendars/my/ unless a task requires them, so every operation the agent can call is one you have chosen.
