Displaying events from Fienta on your own website

Displaying events

You can display all your events from Fienta right on your own website. With a little programming, you can style and format the list to match your website's styles and structure.

Public API

Our public API is organized around REST, returns JSON-encoded responses and uses standard HTTP response codes.

Endpoint

You can retrieve a list of published, non-private upcoming events of a single organiser by using endpoint:

GET https://fienta.com/api/v1/public/events?organizer=<organiser_id>

<locale>
Two lowercase letters indicating the language of the event. Events which are entered in other languages will still be retrieved. To get only events which have specific language, add "locale_strct" parameter to the query.

<organiser_id>
The ID of the organiser on Fienta. You can find it from the URL when visiting the Settings page.
Example: if your Settings page URL is https://fienta.com/my/organizers/1234/edit, your organiser_id is 1245.

Example: Retrieve events from organiser 1234, preferring English language:

GET https://fienta.com/api/v1/public/events?organizer=1234&locale=en

Example: Retrieve only German events from organiser 1234:

GET https://fienta.com/api/v1/public/events?organizer=1234&locale_strict=de

Please see all available parameters from our API documentation.
