Subject: Unsure how to access API object

My company has a "thing" at http://opscode.meetup.com/. This seems to be
some kind of collection of groups, but it isn't using the Everywhere
system. Via the API, I eventually want to get a list of upcoming events in
any of the groups under that umbrella. If I have the group IDs, I can get
the event details, but I'm unsure how to go from the list on
opscode.meetup.com to a list of IDs. Is there any way to access this via
the API? Do I have to convert it to an Everywhere thing? Thanks in advance!

That page displays a list of groups with a topic matching the name of the
subdomain of the page. You can find the same groups through the API by
querying the /groups methods with the topic parameter set to opscode

http://www.meetup.com/meetup_api/console/?path=/groups&topic=opscode

We don't currently support the topic filter in the 2/groups method, but we
could add it.

Aha, topic is the magic word I needed. Thanky! I think I can actually just
skip the group query and use the topic filer on open_events directly, yes?

Yes, you can search for open events by topic -

I'm currently testing a new util with the original groups API because the 2/groups doesn't support topics.  HINT. :).  Using it to gather a full list of photo groups.

Thanks,

Joe
