Events
Overview
Events are the main objects in gigeasy. With our API you can access:
- all events OR
- all past events OR
- all future events OR
- events in specified range
for a band or a user specified by the corresponding API key.
Please note, that you will only get events that are in status “Contract sent” or “Booked”.
