Compare Event Topics and show a list of similar events in event details

[dreadpool2]

For now, we can show the user a list of similar events in the event details section by showing events based on the event topic As in eventbrite Working on it :+1:

[iamareebjamal]

Not possible right now

[dreadpool2]

But the API does support in showing us a list of events under an event type

[iamareebjamal]

But not similar events

[dreadpool2]

I saw that an example of an event was under the topic ( Travel and Leisure ) in our API. So possibly if we show them the events under same topic, won't they be alike ?

[iamareebjamal]

Alright, go ahead

[dreadpool2]

@iamareebjamal There seems to be a requirement for admin access for creating a event topic. Moreover when I try to update an event its showing me that co-organizer access is required ?

[iamareebjamal]

You have to create an event yourself for that

[dreadpool2]

@iamareebjamal I can't create an event topic due to admin access. Actually not a single event topic exists in the server. What should I do?

[iamareebjamal]

Run a local instance of server and create an event topic

[dreadpool2]

@iamareebjamal I am facing a peculiar error. I have run an instance of the server locally. When I create an event with a POST request, it is being created as the API endpoint of the event id shows the response of the event. Problem is that /v1/events API endpoint wont show any events at all. Is this a bug or am I going wrong somewhere?

[iamareebjamal]

Sounds like a bug

[dreadpool2]

Should I create an issue in the server then?

[dreadpool2]

@iamareebjamal Everything seems fine. I am able to fetch my locally created events, I am able to create event topics too. The thing is I am not sure about the process of linking the event with an event topic. I tried it by setting field event_topic_id while creating a new event, but it didn't work. Am I doing this wrong?

[dreadpool2]

I created the event. After that using get request for the event ( included event topic ) Below is response

I got it to work by creating relationship with event topic. Seems like it was given wrong in the docs :+1:
