Retrieving an Event
Problem
I need to retrieve a Facebook event using FQL.
Solution
If you have the eid
(event
ID) of the event, this is easy:
SELECT eid, name, pic_small, description, start_time, end_time, location FROM event WHERE eid = $eid;
You can, of course, SELECT
a
different set of fields.
Discussion
The only place you can get an eid
using FQL is from the event_member
table (see Event Member Table). This query will only return events
that the current loggedinuser
has
permission to see.
