Events API

[Nick Papandreou]

Hello.

Is there an api to retrieve and display events, or is my.vatsim.net the only option?

[Anders Moen]

You can retrieve all the events from here at least: https://my.vatsim.net/api/v1/events/all 🙂

Very helpful, thanks!

Awesome!

Is it possible to have APIs for creating/editing events for event coordinators?

An endpoint for that is already available. But I still need to do some more testing on it. If everything goes well, it'll be released in upcoming days.

This is great! However, I can't find any documentation on this API. Is there anything planned for my.vatsim.net/api? Or is it planned to merge this into the main VATSIM API? Can I count on this API to not change? I'm interested in integrating this into VATprism.

Thanks!

There are no docs on the myVATSIM events API. There is also no plans for a merge of the myVATSIM API with the VATSIM.net API

The events API is pretty straight forward, and it offers versioning. the v1 API will not have any breaking changes, these will go into a v2 if that ever happens.
