The number of requests for a specific event in Pivik

Question

I need to make a widget / plugin for my organization using Piwik, but I got a little lost. We send special events to Piwik, for example:

Category: Staff 
Action: Login 

How can I request piwik from a widget / plugin to get # events matching that particular category / action?

Answer 1

Here is the documentation regarding the API Event .

There are two methods that may interest you:

• Events.getCategory
• Events.getAction

They will return a list of actions / categories displayed in nb_uniq_visitors, nb_visitsand nb_events.
