So we just got this answer below to the email we sent FB about their Events API. Not good. At this point we have no clue what we are going to do. We have no “plan b”.<\/p>\n

Hi Ben \u2013 <\/p>\n

At this point, I would advise looking into alternate data sources for event information.<\/p>\n

Best,

Jon \u2013 Not trying to be difficult. The events we post to OUR OWN FB page are not even being fetched by our plugin.
\nThe API is not accessible to anyone (even pages with tokens) at this time is our understanding.
\nOur fetches (GETS) are coming back blank for even basic event info like name, descriptive, dates, times and location.
\nI don\u2019t believe we can even make an app application at this time. Isn\u2019t your app application process closed ?
\nNo one we\u2019ve been in contact with, including the big Facebook Event Importer plugin companies like Modern Tribe and SlickRemix are getting any data from FB on their products fetches either.
\nWe\u2019re just trying to find out from you IF event data will ever be available via your API again. The developer community is leaning toward no. If that is the case we\u2019ll need to find another alternative.
\nOur Upcoming Events page is already 1000\u2019s of events behind just since 4\/11.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-1519534","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry"],"yoast_head":"\nFB Events -<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/theeventscalendar.com\/support\/forums\/topic\/fb-events-3\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"FB Events -\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"So we just got this answer below to the email we sent FB about their Events API.
