Are you saying that the `event_status`, `event_status_reason`,` is_online`, and `online_url` are not one of the fields that get returned when making a GET Events API request? * Thread Starter [merlijn2504](https://wordpress.org/support/users/merlijn2504/) * (@merlijn2504) * [2 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cannot-post-patch-event_status/#post-17508516) * Yes that is the case. And I can’t update the fields in a POST call. * Thread Starter [merlijn2504](https://wordpress.org/support/users/merlijn2504/) * (@merlijn2504) * [2 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cannot-post-patch-event_status/#post-17511806) * [@tristan083](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tristan083/) * Is there any way this is going to be implemented soon? * Plugin Support [Darian](https://wordpress.org/support/users/d0153/) * (@d0153) * [2 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cannot-post-patch-event_status/#post-17514564) * Hi [@merlijn2504](https://wordpress.org/support/users/merlijn2504/) * Thanks for your message. * Upon checking [The Events Calendar REST API](https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/introduction-to-the-events-calendar-rest-api/), I could not find the Event Status field you’re looking for. However, when you check the endpoint `/events/{id}`, you’ll get a similar field, which is `EventStatus`. * See example- [https://demo.theeventscalendar.com/wp-json/tribe/events/v1/events/1762](https://demo.theeventscalendar.com/wp-json/tribe/events/v1/events/1762) * I hope this helps, and please let me know if you have further questions or concerns. * Thread Starter [merlijn2504](https://wordpress.org/support/users/merlijn2504/) * (@merlijn2504) * [2 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cannot-post-patch-event_status/#post-17517168) * Hi [@d0153](https://wordpress.org/support/users/d0153/), * Thanks for your reply. Unfortunately this fiels is in the json_ld object. I can read the field in a GET call but I can’t POST/PATCH the event_status despite it’s stated in [https://theeventscalendar.com/extensions/event-statuses/](https://theeventscalendar.com/extensions/event-statuses/)( changelog 1.1.0). * Event_Status is not described in the API Swagger documentation. So i think this is overlooked when this plugin was implemended in the main plugin. * I hope there is a way to post a call to update the event status. I’m implementing the calendar for a hot-air-balloon foundation for children and the events needs to be changeable pretty quickly since it all depends on the weather. * Example event: [https://www.ballondeblauwevogel.nl/wp-json/tribe/events/v1/events/2001](https://www.ballondeblauwevogel.nl/wp-json/tribe/events/v1/events/2001) * Plugin Support [Darian](https://wordpress.org/support/users/d0153/) * (@d0153) * [2 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cannot-post-patch-event_status/#post-17518217) * Hi [@merlijn2504](https://wordpress.org/support/users/merlijn2504/) * Thanks for your response. * I will consult with the team to verify if the current status has been incorporated into the REST API as well.
