I'm wondering if there is a way to set a limit as to how many events show in my feed. I can't seem to find any documentation as to how to do this. I only wish to show 3 events on my website's homepage, but it automatically lists them all.
I don't see anything under the request parameters (http://developer.eventbrite.com/doc/events/event_new/) but I'm wondering if there is more documentation elsewhere.
event_new creates new events...it does not list events. So, you can't be using this API to create a "feed".
To list events, there are two API endpoints...user_list_events and organizer_list_events. user_list_events has more controls over the return data, so you should use that one.
Since there are not pagination controls on either of those methods, you will need to filter the result set yourself in whatever client library you are using.

In my Sitefinity back-end there is a user section that I would like to add some setting. Something like DisplayLink where it would be a boolean value that I can set on Login of the user. Is there a way I can do that? I am using sf 14 and can't find anyway to add some setting for the user.
I believe this is what you need ...map the view externally and modify.
However keep in mind these views pull in the XHR JSON and you just expose it to the grid... Open your console and view the XHR network traffic to see the JSON object per user. There's a "Comment" field you might be able to leverage, but man the best way would be to just use a ROLE... because they can be filtered, and already come across in that JSON.
Another thing to note, is this is an OLD UI screen and likely will get revamped in the next few releases of Sitefinity rendering everything you're doing pointless... (have to re-do it with likely the new AdminApp Extensions)
I am setting up a Zap on Zapier and i have been trying to send a payload from Shopify(create order) to a Webhook which is sending data to an API. The problem i am having is adding data to the default payload(all data). I want to send all the data from the payload plus some additional attributes which i am configuring on the Data section, but this replaces the default-all data.
Is there a way to add a value to all the payload? I know i have the option to add the value by header or query string but i would like to add to the body instead. I am currently viewing the custom request but it seems complicated to configure the whole request to just add one value.
Thanks in advance.
David here, from the Zapier Platform team. This is a great question!
The short answer is that it's not possible to do quite what you want. You'll need to map each property into that data box like you're doing and add the custom properties you want.
That said, we track all feature requests that come in through tickets, so if you'd like to voice your support and get notified if/when this does get implemented, I'd suggest emailing in to contact#zapier.com.
I have been able so far to create a new civi Mailing object and populate it, but confusingly I can't see a parameter in that to specify the mail destination group.
For context, I am dealing with Civi using pure REST api from a remote server. I have a solution to getting a custom template onto the server; the new problem is setting a schedule and delivery group, and initiating the send. I am using the python-civicrm library from github as the intermediary on the client.
I presume send happens as a result of setting the schedule -- i.e. I don't need an API call to say 'send mailing'? Is setting 'sheduled date' == 'now' safe or should I set a date of 'now + 1min' or similar?
So that leaves setting the delivery group. We already have groups defined in the DB, and I want to specify the group by name (and preferably be able to verify in advance that a group name is a valid destination, perhaps by doing a group name -> id lookup).
I think there might be a parameter to Mailing create 'groups' which can have keys 'include' and 'exclude'; at least, that's what the web form seems to do. However it's not mentioned in the REST api implementation.
Can anyone offer pointers?
I think you will find all you need in the following link :
Example of api call that is using the group include/exclude : https://gist.github.com/xurizaemon/6775471
Discussion about implementing mailing as an api - http://forum.civicrm.org/index.php?topic=24075.0
Otherwise, if it doesn't work, i suggest that you :
help adding this api in the CiviCRM Core - you could have some help on this on irc #civicrm (and have a look at https://issues.civicrm.org/jira/browse/CRM-11023)
OR create an extension with the api you need. It will be automatically available for REST. If you haven't created an extension yet, i suggest you go to the page http://wiki.civicrm.org/confluence/display/CRMDOC/Create+a+Module+Extension. It's quite straightforward with civix installed.
The table you need to check in the database is civicrm_mailing_group
To confirm, the problem was that (a) I needed to use groups[include]=array(ids) as mentioned by samuelsov, but also (b) I needed to use the json={...} form of request through REST, because the HTTP params syntax doesn't support nested data.
The EventBrite API is great but there are a couple of really simple features that would make it much better. In particular, does anyone know a way to update the tags property of an event (or set it on a new event) - I can't see it on the API method http://developer.eventbrite.com/doc/events/event_update/ but'tags' is available in the response from get_event so am I just missing something.
If this just hasn't been exposed through event_update yet it would be fantastic to get that implemented.
Great question. Eventbrite's event data used to be organized around 'tags' -- users could tag any events for search and discovery.
This functionality was available through our web platform and the API, but has since been removed. So, no matter how users are creating new events (web or API), we've removed the ability to add tags.
The event_get method (http://developer.eventbrite.com/doc/events/event_get/) still exposes the tag information when it's available ... and for specific (less interesting) legacy reasons, there are still a fair amount of events that will continue to have this tag data, so we'll continue to support it in our read API.
If you're using the tag feature for organizing your own events, some of our users will actually put the tag information in the event descriptions as HTML comments using /event_update. This might not meet your use-case, but some people have hacked it to meet their needs.
Hope that helps!
Hi I'm am trying to get the list of issues from a JIRA server using the SOAP API provided by JIRA.
I'm trying to filter the issues based on a custom field (and latter I will want to set that custom field).
If I get the list of issue it returns the custom fields for those issues along with them (I get customfieldId, key, values for each custom field) and I can get the custom field with getCustomFields methods provided by the API (to look for the ID of the field with a given name).
The issue I have is that if I login with an account that is not an admin (using the API) I can't call the getCustomFields method (it throws an exception saying I have to be an admin to do that).
My question is: Is there any other way to know which is the ID of the custom field I desire that can be done using a normal user account?
Also if you know how to set a custom field for an issue, it would also be very helpful :) (I would also like to be able to do it with a regular user account).
You have to be an admin to get a list of custom fields. Any 'normal' account can act on the custom fields via the API provided the user knows the customfield ID.
You can set the value of a custom field too, even with a 'normal' account. Again, the user needs the appropriate permissions to do this. Example provided here.
More here and here.
You can also use getFieldsForEdit(token, issueKey), which will return RemoteField[] for all fields available for edit on that issue (even if it has not yet been defined on the issue). It does not require admin permissions, but because it has the word "Edit" in the method, it does require that you have permission to edit the issue (which means, e.g., if the issue is status=Closed, it will raise an exception unless you allow editing closed issues. Unfortunately, I have yet to find a way to retrieve the RemoteField[] list (in order to map id to name), so getCustomFields() and getFieldsForEdit() appear to be the only options.
Have you tried getting a list of issues from the project, picking one, zeroing out the data, and using that as a template? That might work.
SOAP is being deprecated in favor of the REST API, which also has a better method to get this information
