Pull the full record for one event. The response shape matches what event list returns. Handy when you already have an ID and want a quick jq-friendly read.

Synopsis

Arguments

Examples

1. Inspect an event in the terminal

Prints a single-row table with the headline fields. Use --json if you need the nested tags array or the exact ISO timestamps.

2. Read one field with jq

Returns the start timestamp as a raw string. Pair with date -d (GNU) or gdate -d (macOS via Homebrew coreutils) to format it for a report.

3. Use inside a guard

The CLI exits non-zero when the event ID is missing, so the guard above branches cleanly. See Exit codes for the full mapping.

Response

endAt and location are nullable on draft events. tags is always an array, empty when no tags are attached.
