Dear all,  
I am trying to create a simple event parser app, but I could not find any information about how to do it. The app is very simple in principle: one panel shows all the events on facebook that respond to a research prompt and another panel with a map that locate those events. The second part was discussed in another thread, but to me the first panel is totally obscure.

The panel should show a list of events that are filtered by pre-defined keywords (e.g., “Techno Festival”, “Techno music”, “Music Fesival” ). Can you help me?

How/where are you generating this query @mattia.lopresti.1991? Does the response contain a pair of lat/long coordinates so that you can plot the events on a map, or is the response itself a map?

Thanks

That’s a good point, that’s why I am asking. I don’t know how to do it and what to ask to FB APIs. In panel 1 there should only be a list of the events, in the second case I would ask for the lat/long coordinates, but I found some instructions [here](https://community.thunkable.com/t/facebook-events-integration-in-thunkable/1811508)

I don’t have access to that API unfortunately, and can’t find any helpful docs in relation to the API response either

We’re you able to get access to their partner program Mattia?
