Request for `/events` Command to Simplify Event Creation

·

I just ran my first event with the event features. Overall it has some great features. I would like to request that we can make events with a /events command rather than be forced to use the UI. I have to set up quite a few events, and I would love to be able to automate it in some way. I looked into the webhooks options, but that looks like it only supports outgoing webhooks.

James S. we do have an /events shortcut but no command yet. I assume you’d want to do something like /event [name] [date] [description] Or is there another approach to this?

Yes, that would be great. I realize the challenge is likely in allowing a large amount of optional fields and managing variable types. Any data structure method would be fine for my purposes. Alternatively, I would also be fine with an API function.

API function would probably be required to get this done anyhow. Different idea since my command proposal above might not work: /event [written description of the event with date and properly synthesized using AI + structured output]
