Hi FlowerPi,

Yes, event management is fully built with REST API, the sample event website by Microsoft is built with Angular, you could build your own event website from scratch with any front end framework you like.

Official Angular website demo:

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics365/marketing/developer/event-management-web-application

API documentation:

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics365/marketing/developer/using-events-api(Introduction)

https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=2042224(PDF)

In addition, you could also use "marketing forms for event registration" feature, which is a new feature from 2020 wave 1 release.

It will automatically create a script, then just copy the code to your website, the marketing form for event registration will be injected by form-loader.js, it is fully JavaScript.

Hi FlowerPi,

Here is a sample request to add attendee.

Prerequisites:

Disable CAPTCHA.

URL:

https://abcdefg.svc.dynamics.com/EvtMgmt/api/v2.0/events/{readableID}/registrations?emApplicationtoken=xxxx

Please read this article for how to generate an Event API endpoint and get emApplicationtoken.( It authenticates your web application against the event management public API.)

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics365/marketing/developer/register-web-application-events-api

Method:POST

Request payload:

{ "attendees":[ { "firstName":"Cloyer", "lastName":"Mao", "email":"001web@test.org", "passId":"", "waitlisted":false, "autoRegister":false, "responses":[ ], "attendeeSessions":[ ] } ] }

Result(JSON callback data)

{ "errorCode":null, "status":"Success", "errorMessage":null, "Message":null, "redirectUrl":null, "purchaseId":null }

Status code for success is 200.

You can also refer to page 10 of PDF documentation.

Clofly

Hi FlowerPi,

We should call the API in a HTTP server.

1. Install "Preview on Web Server" extension to your Visual Studio Code editor.(Or any other editor such as Atom or Sublime which supports HTTP server plugin.)

2. The extension will run a live server at 8080 port of localhost, thus we register a web application which accepts requests from http://localhost:8080

3. In JavaScript code, we need to stringify attendee data and set content type to application/json

(I modified your code, the API will be called by clicking a button.)

4. Run the HTML page in HTTP server mode.

5. Result: now I have added an attendee to Dynamics Marketing with API directly.

Clofly
