Retrieves the event with the given id. By default the response includes the event’s own scalar fields plus the foreign-key ids for related objects (bookingId, locationId, eventBriefId). Relations are inlined only when requested via expand[]. Pass one or more expand[] query parameters to inline related objects. On this endpoint, paths are written as-is — no prefix.

curl "https://app.flashquotes.com/api/events/evt_8K3aN1qV2x?expand[]=booking.lead&expand[]=services" \
  -H "x-api-key: $FLASHQUOTES_API_KEY"

Allow-listed expand paths:

Path	Adds
`location`	The event’s `location` object
`services`	The event’s `services` array
`staff`	The event’s `staff` array
`addons`	The event’s `addons` array
`resources`	The event’s `resources` array
`booking`	The parent `booking` object
`booking.lead`	`lead` inside `booking` (auto-promotes `booking`)
`booking.eventType`	`eventType` inside `booking` (auto-promotes `booking`)
`booking.invoices`	`invoices` array inside `booking` (auto-promotes `booking`)

Requesting any nested booking.* path automatically expands booking itself — you do not need to list booking separately.

Expanded response

With expand[]=booking.lead&expand[]=booking.invoices, the response inlines the nested objects under booking:

{
  "object": "event",
  "id": "evt_8K3aN1qV2x",
  "booking": {
    "object": "booking",
    "id": "bkg_4F2yL8",
    "lead": {
      "object": "lead",
      "id": "led_2T7nC4",
      "companyName": "Acme",
      "firstName": "Jane",
      "lastName": "Doe",
      "email": "jane@acme.com"
    },
    "invoices": [
      {
        "object": "invoice",
        "id": "inv_9P5xK3",
        "status": "Paid",
        "total": 250000,
        "amountPaid": 250000,
        "amountDue": 0,
        "url": "https://app.flashquotes.com/invoice/..."
      }
    ]
  }
}

Limits

Maximum nesting depth of 4 segments.
Unknown or malformed paths return 400.
