Custom triggers after event creation

[Ian]

Hi,

Love the suite of event management plugins! I have one question though. Is it possible to have the plugin do some custom API calls before finishing up creating a new event? We have a need to publish events on two platforms with the ID generated by the second platform being stored within the WordPress event database.

I could hack away at the plugin’s base code but any changes will be wiped away with every update :o(

Any ideas if this is going to be possible?

Thanks

Hi Ian,

Thanks so much for reaching out!

Here is some information about our REST API:

I hope this helps to get you started!  Let me know if you have any other questions!

 

Thanks,

Thanks Jamie,

I have already looked through the API documentation and it will be very helpful to deal with in-coming connections. However, it doesn’t really help when I want the ticketing plugin to make API call’s to another system during it’s normal even flow. Is there a way to break in to the process within the plugin and have it perform another step?

Cheers

Ian.

Hi Ian,

Perhaps the best way to do that would be to take a look at the Themer’s Guide.  This can direct you to all of our templates and how to safely copy and edit them to ensure that you can add the type of functionality that you are looking for.

Let me know if that is more along the lines of what you are looking for and if you have any other questions!

 

Thanks,

Jaime
