YourMembership Events API

Retrieve events, event details, and event registrations (the YM Events module) so that calendars and registration data can be synced to external systems. Grounded in the documented Events search capability of the legacy XML API and the YM Events integration surface; specific REST paths are modeled.

  title: YourMembership API
  description: >-
    A description of the YourMembership developer API surface. YourMembership is
    an association management system (AMS) / membership management platform owned
    by Community Brands (now operating under Momentive Software / the Personify
    portfolio). This document covers the modern REST API (base
    https://ws.yourmembership.com, OAuth-authenticated, endpoints under /Ams) and
    references the separate YMCareers REST API (base
    https://api.careerwebsite.com/v1).


    Access is license/partner gated: customers must license the REST API before an
    integration partner can connect, and the vendor Swagger UI and metadata
    document return HTTP 403 to anonymous callers. As a result only a subset of
    paths is publicly confirmed - POST /Ams/Authenticate, the MemberProfile
    endpoint (ReadContacts) and the People endpoint (ReadContact). The remaining
    Events, Certifications, Content/Community, and Commerce/Sales operations here
    are honestly MODELED from documented platform capability and the legacy XML API
    (v2.00) method groups; they are not copied from a public specification and the
    exact request/response shapes will differ. Confirm against the licensed Swagger
    UI at https://ws.yourmembership.com/swagger-ui/ before building.
