What does name_error really mean?

[Allan Wick]

I am posting to /:eventURL/events with a valid bearer token and following payload.

{

  "name": "EventEzze Demo",

  "description": "This is my first event from EventEzze",

  "time": 1504352700000,

  "duration": 8100000,

  "publishStatus": "draft"

}

Curl with censored data: 

curl -X POST \

  https://api.meetup.com/XXXMYGROUPXXX/events/ \

  -H 'authorization: Bearer XXXMYBEARERTOKENXXX' \

  -H 'cache-control: no-cache' \

  -H 'content-type: application/json' \

  -d '{

  "name": "EventEzze Demo",

  "description": "This is my first event from EventEzze",

  "time": 1504352700000,

  "duration": 8100000,

  "publishStatus": "draft"

}

I get the error:

        {

            "code": "name_error",

            "message": "A title is required to post your Meetup",

            "field": "name"

        }

There is no "Title" field that I can find in the post documentation.

The issue here is that we don't currently support application/json bodies for HTTP POSTS. Instead we expect form post data

curl -X POST -d "name=EventEzze Demo&description=This is my first event from EventEzze" ...
