Getting attendee Meta using aatendee_id

[Mike Staines]

Hi,

Following instuctions from this Thread
https://theeventscalendar.com/support/forums/topic/additional-columns-in-the-attendees-list-csv-export-2/

I have been able to add a column to my exported csv. The problem I am having is getting the attendee meta so I can run a query to produce extra fields

I am able to use $item[‘attendee_id’] to retrieve the attendee ID for each attendee but I don’t know how to get the attendee name or retrieve data using that id.

Thanks

Hi Mike,

Thanks for reaching out!

The attendee meta data is linked to the purchased ticket. (The attendee_id as well.)

You should be able to get the attendee meta with this function:

• https://theeventscalendar.com/function/tribe_get_event_meta/

Supply it with the ID of the sold ticket, use ‘_tribe_tickets_meta’ as the meta key and ‘false’ as the single. Something like this:

$attendee_metadata = tribe_get_event_meta ( '123', '_tribe_tickets_meta', false );

This will return an array with the data.

Let me know if this helps.

Cheers,
Andras
