events taxonomies argument not filtering

[gigmaps]

If i run the following API call I get ~45k events : https://api.seatgeek.com/2/events?format=json&aid=10489&taxonomies.name=concert&client_id=xxxxx

However the event type is not always concert - in fact the results are highly polluted with other event types - the following being a list of count(*) by event type :

...it would in fact appear that the taxonomies.name argument doesn't work at all ?

Is there any way to ensure that results are ONLY returned for my selected 'concert' taxonomy ?

I just did the following to try and replicate your results:

https://api.seatgeek.com/2/events?taxonomies.name=concert&client_id=CLIENT_ID&type=ncaa_womens_basketball

And am unable to. Can you point out to me an event where the event type doesn't closely match the taxonomy? They get derived from each other internally, so it would be very strange to actually see this happen so... frequently.

Sorry for the late response.

@josegonzalez thanks for the reply - it looks like you've fixed it somewhat since I asked the question originally (and I developed my own code to filter out the undesired types anyway) btw you don't actually have any ncaa_womens_baskeball events listed on the API currently :-)

[josegonzalez]

I don't follow College Sports as well as I should, but didn't Women's Basketball just finish their season? We don't have a schedule yet for next year - not sure anyone does - so that's why we wouldn't list any events for them :)

Closing the issue as this appears to have been ephemeral.
