It would be amazing to have some level of API access for jam metadata for third party sites.

I work on a team finder project for an annual game jam, and one of the soft blockers to expanding it to any/all jams is managing which game jam/project participants are engaging in. If there were a way to GET a list of all upcoming jams, our site would allow a user to select the jam(s) they’re participating in to improve the UX of finding teammates.

I don’t know what’s been discussed previously, something as simple as

GET /jams
GET /jams/upcoming

(Repeat for all existing filters)

Where each document has the basics of the jam, e.g.

• Title
• Description
• Start
• End
• Current participants
• Current status

…would allow for interesting ways of integrating with the site; my use case would be read-only, but I’ve seen some discussion about users wanting an API to automate jam actions on top of this

Is there anyone on the dev team who’d know if anything like this is doable?

I’m happy to submit a PR if someone can point me in the right direction
