Creating events

To create events you must have a System scope access token with full access to a company environment. You must have in hands the following query attributes: tokenID companyID, and the following body attributes: name and nickname.

  • name is the Event name;

  • nickname is the string that will be used in the browser URL to access the event;

Example

The endpoint that you should use is company.event.bind on RCP or company/event/bind on RESTful.

Here is how to create an event:

curl --request POST \
     --url 'https://api.inevent.com/?action=company.event.bind&companyID=YOUR_COMPANY_ID' \
     --header 'Accept: application/json' \
     --header 'Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded' \
     --data name=This%20is%20a%20test%20event&nickname=my-test-event-1632854490

If you want to copy data from a previous event you can use the siblingID query attribute with the previous eventID as the value.

If you want to create an event based on a template you can use the templateID query attribute with the id of the template as the value.

If you want this event to be a template you can use the isTemplate query attribute with 1 as the value. Templates have limited functionality and its purpose is only to create the bare essentials for your events.

Response

Once you create the event, you will get a response similar to the following one:
