Gracenote Delivery Overview
Some Streamers prefer to ingest schedule data from Gracenote directly. If a Wurl Content Company has an active Gracenote agreement for schedule delivery, Wurl can deliver the Schedules to Gracenote directly for retrieval by the Streamer.
Gracenote Feed Setup Form
When you onboard a new channel to Gracenote, they will present you with a Feed Setup Form to collect information on your new channel. This form includes some technical delivery information, so we have provided answers to some of those questions here:
| Schedule Delivery Method? | API |
| EPG Schedule Horizon (# of Days)? | 7 (seven) |
| Schedule Delivery Frequency? | Daily |
| API Integrity Complexity? | Standard Single API |
