Event Aggregator Won’t Aggregat

[Doron]

Hey
Trying to import an event from a facebook page. Getting “Your preview doesn’t have any records to import.”.
Tried several pages, all with upcoming events – getting the same message.

These are the URL’s I’ve used

https://www.facebook.com/NofMeshutaf/ (also tried https://www.facebook.com/pg/NofMeshutaf/events/)

Hi Doron

Hi there

Thanks so much for reaching out!

Facebook recently announced a range of changes (https://newsroom.fb.com/news/2018/04/restricting-data-access) to their APIs (the protocols we use to ‘speak’ to their servers and retrieve event information) which are having an effect on a number of our users.

As part of this, a number of new restrictions were applied to their Events API, which is the specific protocol Event Aggregator uses in order to import events, organizers, and venues. These changes went live with little notice to providers such as ourselves. At this point, it does not seem possible to reliably import any events, even if you created and ‘own’ events on Facebook and have linked Event Aggregator to Facebook using those same credentials.

Needless to say, we are just as stuck and frustrated as our clients on this issue. We will continue to keep you updated through our social channels, blog posts, newsletters, and on https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/ea-fb-privacy-policy and https://theeventscalendar.com/event-aggregator-status/.

Please let me know if you have any other questions!

Thanks
Courtney 🙂
