Groups API
Style = Layout
Styles are referenced with the key "layout".
Get all/latest groups
GET /group/all
Gets a list with the ids of all available groups.
GET /group/latest
Gets the latest group.
Get one group
GET /group/:prokey
Reading a specific group does not allow for any additional parameters. It only takes the proKey in the request url and simply provides you with all data for this one.
The response holds more fields than you might expect, as a group can be combined with a calendar subscription and therefore with a style and cta template.
Potential response
{
"name": "My events",
"status": "published",
"internal_note": null,
"subscription": "no",
"subscription_cal_url": null,
"layout": null,
"landingpage": null,

"events": [
"31a17cce-bbbb-4ee3-99bb-6144c6a3aaaa",
"31a17cce-cccc-4ee3-99bb-6144c6a3bbbb"
]
}
Add a group
POST /group
Creating a new group requires you to at least provide the "name" field in the body.
{
"name": "Name of the Event Group" // usually only internal, but can also appear publicly, if you use the subscription functionality!
}
Potential request with all fields
Mind that you cannot add events on group creation. You can only link events to a group when creating a new event!
{
"name": "Name of the Event Group",
"internal_note": null, // an optional simple string
"subscription": "no", // can be "no" or "external" - the latter one requires a subscription_cal_url
"subscription_cal_url": null, // url to an external calendar. Needs to start with "http"! Usually ends with ".ics"
"layout": "id-of-a-style-template", // take the id from the url in the application or the response when creating one via API
"landingpage": "id-of-a-landingpage-template", // take the id from the url in the application or the response when creating one via API
"cta": true,
"cta_block": "id-of-a-cta-block" // take the id from the url in the application or the response when creating one via API
}
Potential response
{
"status": "success",
"message": "created",
"prokey": "99ec3e7f-ef04-bbbb-a3d7-e30736faaaaa"
}
You can use the ProKey for further processing (incl. creating events within this group).
Update a group
PATCH /group/:prokey
Updating a group follows the same rules as creating one.
Limitations
You can only change the subscription setting as long as there are no events linked to the group!
For the status, mind that if a group gets set to draft on the application UI, you cannot publish it via API!
For every 5th update, we also deduct 1 event credit to prevent abuse!
Delete a group
DELETE /group/:prokey
Deleting a group is simple. Only provide the prokey and it (incl. all linked events) gets removed.
Be careful with this call!
