This page contains the setup guide and reference information for the Cvent Event Management integrations.
Prerequisites

Setup guide
Step 1: Set up the Cvent integration in Swapcard
Sign in to your Swapcard account.
Navigate to your Event page within the Communities section.
In the left navigation bar, go to Event Builder, then select Integrations.
On the integration selection page, choose Cvent from the list of integrations.
To activate the integration, you will need to first create a Workspace from Cvent:
Go to Admin ⇒ Integrations ⇒ REST API ⇒ Manage API Access ⇒ Create Workspace.
Invite a Developer (could be anyone from your team).
Use this developer account to log in and create an Application at Cvent, and add all read rights.

Once the Application is created, copy the Client ID & Client Secret:

Select your event for integration - The integration displays all events your account has access to, including upcoming and past events.
Your Cvent event has been successfully linked with your Swapcard event.
You have the flexibility to adjust your integration settings according to the specific data requirements. It's crucial to highlight that the synchronization will only begin when you manually start the integration process and finish the necessary mapping.

Limitations & Troubleshooting
Connector limitations
Incremental Sync - Overwrite
Integration with Cvent is subject to limitations imposed by the provider's API when it comes to incremental updates. The synchronization frequency is limited to the provider's API rate limits and the availability of the data.
