Eventbrite API - event_search - finding best matches

Question

i've noticed that for certain keywords, the Eventbrite website shows relevant events, but the API returns a lot of irrelevant events.

some examples are: "arts", "health", "auction"

the results shown on the website all have the keywords appearing in the Title/Name of the event, however the API returns events as long as the keywords are in the title and/or description.

MY QUESTION IS: how do I use the API to only get back events which have the keyword appearing in the title?

I'm trying to get the best matching events.

Answer 1

event_search currently does a full-text search over the title and description fields.

Eventbrite is currently working on connecting their event_search interface to the same back-end that powers their web-based directory service

I'm sure they'll make an announcement via @EventbriteAPI when it's ready.
