SearchAPI returning old results

   Hi,

   I making this call : http://api.amp.active.com/search?&v=json&api_key=rm4agnjv6k4m4tvpft95xvbn&?k=Fall+Classic&m=meta:channel=Cycling&l=94587&r=20

   Now the result that I get has mostly the old events(events already concluded). I tried different zip codes but most of the time out of 10 results 8 are old while 2 are future events. Am I making a wrong call? Is there a workaround? Please advice.

   Hi Akhil,

   If you are looking for events that are happening in the future, try adding a date filter in your API call: http://api.amp.active.com/search?&v=xml&api_key=rm4agnjv6k4m4tvpft95xvbn&?k=Fall+Classic&m=meta:startDate:daterange:today..+meta:channel=Cycling&l=94587&r=20

   You'll notice that I added this to the call the search for events happening from today to the future...

   m=meta:startDate:daterange:today..

   -

   Let me know if this helps you find the correct events.

   Best regards,
