Eventbrite

Access the Eventbrite API with managed OAuth authentication. Manage events, venues, ticket classes, orders, attendees, and more.

Quick Start

# Get current user
python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
req = urllib.request.Request('https://gateway.maton.ai/eventbrite/v3/users/me/')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF

Base URL

https://gateway.maton.ai/eventbrite/{native-api-path}

Replace {native-api-path} with the actual Eventbrite API endpoint path. The gateway proxies requests to www.eventbriteapi.com and automatically injects your OAuth token.

Authentication

All requests require the Maton API key in the Authorization header:

Authorization: Bearer $MATON_API_KEY

Environment Variable: Set your API key as MATON_API_KEY:

export MATON_API_KEY="YOUR_API_KEY"

Getting Your API Key

1. Sign in or create an account at maton.ai
2. Go to maton.ai/settings
3. Copy your API key

Connection Management

Manage your Eventbrite OAuth connections at https://ctrl.maton.ai.

List Connections

python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
req = urllib.request.Request('https://ctrl.maton.ai/connections?app=eventbrite&status=ACTIVE')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF

Create Connection

python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
data = json.dumps({'app': 'eventbrite'}).encode()
req = urllib.request.Request('https://ctrl.maton.ai/connections', data=data, method='POST')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
req.add_header('Content-Type', 'application/json')
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF

Get Connection

python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
req = urllib.request.Request('https://ctrl.maton.ai/connections/{connection_id}')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF

Response:

{
  "connection": {
    "connection_id": "a2dd9063-64b4-4fe2-b4c5-8dd711648244",
    "status": "ACTIVE",
    "creation_time": "2026-02-07T09:11:20.516013Z",
    "last_updated_time": "2026-02-07T09:14:35.273822Z",
    "url": "https://connect.maton.ai/?session_token=...",
    "app": "eventbrite",
    "metadata": {}
  }
}

Open the returned url in a browser to complete OAuth authorization.

Delete Connection

python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
req = urllib.request.Request('https://ctrl.maton.ai/connections/{connection_id}', method='DELETE')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF

Specifying Connection

If you have multiple Eventbrite connections, specify which one to use with the Maton-Connection header:

python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
req = urllib.request.Request('https://gateway.maton.ai/eventbrite/v3/users/me/')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
req.add_header('Maton-Connection', 'a2dd9063-64b4-4fe2-b4c5-8dd711648244')
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF

If omitted, the gateway uses the default (oldest) active connection.

  {
    headers: {
      'Authorization': `Bearer ${process.env.MATON_API_KEY}`
    }
  }
);
const user = await response.json();

Python

import os
import requests

response = requests.get(

    headers={'Authorization': f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}'}

Notes

• All endpoint paths should end with a trailing slash (/)
• Event creation requires an organization - use organization-based endpoints
• Legacy user-based event endpoints are deprecated; use organization equivalents
• Timestamps are in ISO 8601 format (UTC)
• Currency amounts are in minor units (cents) - e.g., "USD,2500" = $25.00
• Rate limit: 1,000 calls per hour, 48,000 calls per day
• Event Search API is no longer publicly available (deprecated February 2020)
• IMPORTANT: When using curl commands, use curl -g when URLs contain brackets to disable glob parsing
• IMPORTANT: When piping curl output to jq or other commands, environment variables like $MATON_API_KEY may not expand correctly in some shell environments

Error Handling

Status	Meaning
400	Missing Eventbrite connection or invalid arguments
401	Invalid or missing Maton API key
403	Not authorized (check scopes or use organization endpoints)
404	Resource not found
429	Rate limited
4xx/5xx	Passthrough error from Eventbrite API

Common Errors

NOT_AUTHORIZED with legacy user endpoints:

{"status_code": 403, "error": "NOT_AUTHORIZED", "error_description": "This user is not able to use legacy user endpoints, please use the organization equivalent."}

Solution: Use /organizations/{org_id}/events/ instead of /users/me/owned_events/

Troubleshooting: API Key Issues

1. Check that the MATON_API_KEY environment variable is set:

echo $MATON_API_KEY

2. Verify the API key is valid by listing connections:

python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
req = urllib.request.Request('https://ctrl.maton.ai/connections')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF

Troubleshooting: Invalid App Name

1. Ensure your URL path starts with eventbrite. For example:

• Correct: https://gateway.maton.ai/eventbrite/v3/users/me/
• Incorrect: https://gateway.maton.ai/v3/users/me/
