Adding a Field to API URL Request

Hi,

 

I'm not sure if I am asking this question correctly, but I am trying to pull a list of Events from a web API. That list of events contains an event ID that can be passed into another URL to retrieve a list of instances/dates. Is there a way I can pass through the Event IDs that are retrieved into the instances URL?

 

Displays List of Events: https://system.company.com/clientname/api/v3/events

 

    {
        "description""",
        "htmlDescription""<div id>\r\n\r\n</div>",
        "duration"0,
        "imageUrl""",
        "isOnSale"true,
        "name""2023 Test Event",
        "instanceDates""July 4-July 4",
        "thumbnailUrl""",
        "webEventId"null,
        "id": "20601ABGSVVQHCDMLPVSSHGJPQKDMCGQD",
        "firstInstanceDateTime""2023-07-04T19:30:00",
        "lastInstanceDateTime""2023-07-04T19:30:00"
    },

 

Displays List of Instances: https://system.company.com/clientname/api/v3/events/{id}/instances

 

Thanks for any assistance!

You can JSON parse the return payload of the initial Web.Contents call and then access the individual parameters (and re-use them for subsequent Web.Contents calls.)  Beware of the Formula Firewall.
