Facebook Aggregator API

[James]

My events page on my website is heavily dependent on the Facebook Events Aggregator. I note that this has now not been working for sometime, and all of the events which should be coming in, have not been shown on my website.

I thought at first I had exceeded by 100 imports a day, and naturally upgraded to 200, an error on my part when i THEN discovered there was a problem with the Facebook APIs

I am aware that Facebook has altered their APIs but, how soon can we hope for a solution to this frustrating problem of no events being listed.

This is surely a matter of some urgency?

Hi there James

Thanks so much for reaching out! I really wish I knew. What I can say is that Facebook had a developer application process in place for years and we were approved for that. They have since created a new submission process and we have applied, but have had no response. It looks to not include nearly as much access as we’ve had to FB Event data either.

This is frustrating for you, and for developers like us.  As Facebook continues to alter what it allows us to access, we will continue to pursue a path forward for Event Aggregator to import Facebook events.  We will continue to keep https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/ea-fb-privacy-policy and https://theeventscalendar.com/event-aggregator-status/ updated as this unfolds.

Please let me know if you have any other questions!

Thanks
Courtney 🙂

Hey there! This thread has been pretty quiet for the last three weeks, so we’re going to go ahead and close it to avoid confusion with other topics. If you’re still looking for help with this, please do open a new thread, reference this one and we’d be more than happy to continue the conversation over there.

Thanks so much!
