How to get venues information

[Luying Min]

Hello!

I tried to a venue information.

But I see following notice.

HTTP 403 FORBIDDEN

• Vary: Accept
• Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *
• Access-Control-Allow-Headers: Authorization, Content-Type
• Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8
• Allow: GET, POST, HEAD, OPTIONS

{
    "status_code": 403, 
    "error_description": "You do not have permission to access the resource you requested.", 
    "error": "NOT_AUTHORIZED"

[Eventbrite API]

Hi Luying,

What endpoint are you using to make the GET request for the venue?

Hi there,

I'm getting the same error, here is url im calling :
https://www.eventbriteapi.com/v3/venues/6381105/?token=MY_TOKEN

Andre,

Can you please send the OAuth token you are using to api at eventbrite dot com? I'm able to make a successful request to that endpoint using my auth token.

What was the resolution to this issue? I am getting the exact same error for that endpoint.

Malcom,

The resolution was that the venue the developer was requesting was private and the developer did not own the venue so did not have access to it via the API.  For the most part, NOT_AUTHORIZED means that you are trying to access something that is private. 

Best,

Malina

In my situation, the venue name is available on the site, so something similar should be available via api. All I can receive is the venue id.

Just in case anyone else finds this thread via google, I was getting a very similar error: it turned out I was using an organizer_id (ID for an organizer profile) in the place of an organization_id. Finding your organization_id can be done by calling GET /v3/users/me/organizations/.

Hope this helps someone.
