Question:
Is there a way of setting an event into a category using the events api or part of the newevent() api for wix events?
Product:
Wix events and velo
What are you trying to achieve:
Want to assign an event created through velo to a specific category.
What have you already tried:
I have looked through the api resources and couldnt find any reference on how to do this, also done a search online for anyone else who has achieved this.
I’m not too familiar with events but you can intercept new events being created with: https://www.wix.com/velo/reference/wix-events-backend/events/oneventcreated
And you can update them with: updateEvent - Velo API Reference - Wix.com
Hey Anthony,
There may be a little confusion sorry, when I am referring to Wix events, I am talking about the Business Solution Wix Events (ticket and events system), not the onevent action, sorry for that!
The issue is the wix events categorisation system. To be able to place events into categories does not exist (from what I can see) on any of the API’s (create, update, etc) within the Velo Reference System. Unless it does exist and I have completely missed it somewhere?
It would be great if WIX could add the ability to assign a Category to a new event through Velo. Unless as mentioned before this already exists and I have missed this. Any help on this would be great.
Looks like you’re correct. You can request that feature addition here: Product Roadmap
