List items for an event

Buy-now items, auction lots, pledges, raffles, GLI raffles, and tickets grouped by category. Custom Data Export and Blackbaud variants today.

Lists all sellable / biddable items for an event, grouped by category, as an ItemsBundle.

Available in two of the three families today:

Family	Path	Payload
Custom Data Export	GET /<your-namespace>/v1/events/{eventId}/items	Full record fields.
Blackbaud	GET /blackbaud/v1/events/{eventId}/items	Lean record fields tailored for Blackbaud ingestion.

Coming Soon — list-items on the Salesforce connector family. If you need item data via a Salesforce-shaped payload, contact [e-mail].

Authorization

Custom Data Export

The authenticated caller must be the dedicated service user provisioned for your integration, and have access to the event.

Custom Data Export endpoints require a dedicated service user provisioned per customer. Contact [e-mail] to set up your integration.

Blackbaud

The authenticated caller must have access to the event. No dedicated-user restriction.

The Blackbaud connector is a partner-specific integration. Contact [e-mail] to enable the connector for your organization.

Path parameters

Name	Type	Notes
eventId	UUID	EMS event id (returned by List events).

Query parameters

Name	Type	Default	Notes
q	string	""	Full-text filter applied per category.
since	long	1606062358	updated >= since.
offset	int	0	Applied per category independently.
limit	int	1000	Page size per category. Maximum 1000.

offset and limit apply per category in the response, not across the whole bundle. If you have more than 1000 records in any single category, paginate by re-issuing the request with rising offset until every category returns an empty array. See Polling pattern → Bundle pagination caveat.

Response

ItemsBundle — always the same wrapper shape, with the per-record fields varying by family:

Custom Data Export

Returns the full variants of BuyNowItem, AuctionItem, Pledge, Raffle, Ticket, and GliRaffle.

The Custom Data Export item types include descriptive fields the connector variants strip:

• revenueStreamType, externalId, categories, irsSubcategory
• startPrice, increments, description, termsDescription
• taxRate, estimate (where applicable)

See Payload customization examples for the full comparison.

Blackbaud

Returns the Blackbaud (lean) variants of every item type. Compared to Custom Data Export, descriptive fields are stripped — the connector returns only what Blackbaud’s data model natively ingests.

See Payload customization examples for the per-type field list.

Example

Custom Data Export

curl --cookie session.cookie \
  '{EMS_BASE_URL}/<your-namespace>/v1/events/8f3c2a1d-9b4e-4c7a-a1d2-6e5f4c3b2a10/items?since=1714000000'

See the full ItemsBundle (Custom Data Export) example response.

Blackbaud

curl --cookie session.cookie \
  '{EMS_BASE_URL}/blackbaud/v1/events/8f3c2a1d-9b4e-4c7a-a1d2-6e5f4c3b2a10/items?since=1714000000'

Same wrapper shape as the Custom Data Export example, but each record has the connector-stripped field set.

What’s in the response

ItemsBundle has six top-level keys, each holding an array of records of one type:

Wrapper key	Record type	What it represents
buyNows	BuyNowItem	Fixed-price items guests can purchase immediately.
auctionItems	AuctionItem	Auction lots that guests bid on.
pledges	Pledge	Donation asks (fixed or open-amount).
prizeDraws	Raffle	Standard ticketed prize draws.
gliRaffles	GliRaffle	GLI-regulated raffles (separate compliance handling).
tickets	Ticket	Event-entry ticket types.

The wrapper shape is constant across every family — only the contents of each array change between the Custom Data Export and connector variants.
