Event Start Date using API

[cityofroundrock]

I’ve been attempting to get the start date for my events using the WordPress API by making an AJAX get request like this:

$.get("https://www.example.com/wp-json/wp/v2/tribe_events/", function(data, status){
            console.log(data);
        });

The data I get back does not contain any start date fields in my events objects. Is there any way to obtain the start date using the new REST API functionality that came out in version 4.5 of the Events Calendar?

Hi.

Your URL should look like this: http://example.com/wp-json/tribe/events/v1/events/

The API is self-documenting: /wp-json/tribe/events/v1/doc — which you can, in turn, plug into http://petstore.swagger.io/ to give a visual way of exploring it.

Please let me know if you have any follow-up questions on this topic.

Great. It worked. Thanks for the help.

We also published a helpful guide: Introduction to The Events Calendar REST API https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/introduction-events-calendar-rest-api/ .

We’re excited to provide this functionality for you.
