Get Event

Retrieve one custom event definition. This page documents the OpenSend-owned API contract for GET /events/{identifier}.

Raw markdown

GET /events/{identifier}

Authentication

Use an OpenSend API key in the Authorization header. Dashboard session cookies are not API credentials for public API clients.

http
Authorization: Bearer os_YOUR_API_KEY

Identifier

identifier may be either the event definition id or the exact event name. OpenSend resolves it inside the authenticated tenant only. If an identifier looks like a UUID, OpenSend checks event IDs first and then checks event names.
