Hello,
I'm suggesting support for webhooks for changes (creation, update, deletion) to events administered within NationBuilder.
My use case is I'm building a web app to index political events around the country. If groups, who are NationBuilder customers, could connect to it and submit new events and updates, that would have a huge impact on adoption, which would in turn impact event attendance for those customers, and subsequent volunteering, contributions and other engagement from the supporters. I can imagine other third party sites might be interested in this functionality too.
I'm a developer myself, so I'm happy to submit a pull request or sample code if that would be useful, but I'd be curious to hear NationBuilder's thoughts on adding this feature.
Thank you!
Jon

Have you considered setting up your app so that customers can authenticate it against their nation and then you can use our events API to index events in any nation that authenticates on a rolling basis? It seems like that would be a work-around that would require as much, if not less, work on the part of the nation owner to setup.
