Authentication (OAuth 2.0)

  1. Go to Eventbrite Account Settings at https://www.eventbrite.com/account-settings/apps.
  2. Click Create New App and fill in the required information:
    • Application name
    • Application description
    • Application URL
  3. Add the redirect URI: https://api.runalloy.com/api/strategy/connector/eventbrite/callback
  4. Once your app is created, copy your OAuth Token (or Client Secret if using full OAuth flow).
  5. Enter your credentials into Alloy Automation.

Important Notes

  • Eventbrite supports both private tokens (for personal integrations) and OAuth 2.0 (for public apps)
  • Private tokens are simpler to set up but only work for your own events
  • OAuth 2.0 is required if you’re building an app for other Eventbrite users
  • Tokens have access to all resources the authenticated user has permission to view

Use Cases

3) Order processing and analytics

Retrieve order data and ticket sales information to generate custom reports, track revenue, and analyze event performance across your business intelligence tools.

4) Automated check-in systems

Build custom check-in applications that sync with Eventbrite attendee data in real-time, enabling smooth event entry and attendance tracking.

5) Multi-event management

Aggregate data across multiple events and organizations to provide unified reporting, cross-event analytics, and centralized event management dashboards.

API Gotchas

  • Rate limiting: Eventbrite enforces strict rate limits of 1000 requests per hour per user and 50 requests per second. Monitor the X-RateLimit-* headers and implement exponential backoff.
  • Pagination: Large datasets require pagination using the continuation token. Don’t assume all results fit in a single response—always check for and handle pagination.
  • Webhook retries: Eventbrite will retry failed webhook deliveries up to 10 times with exponential backoff. Ensure your webhook endpoint returns 2xx status codes promptly.
  • Event status transitions: Events can be in various states (draft, live, started, ended, completed). Not all API operations are available in all states, so check event status before performing actions.
  • Timezone handling: Eventbrite stores event times in the event’s local timezone. Always handle timezone conversions carefully when syncing to other systems.
