Hi, thanks for contacting Hebcal. You can create a personal list of Yahrzeit (memorial) and Yizkor dates, Hebrew Birthdays and Anniversaries for 20+ years at this page:
https://www.hebcal.com/yahrzeit
If you know the Hebrew but not the Gregorian date, you can use the Hebrew Date Converter to get the Gregorian date of death, and then come back to the Yahrzeit + Anniversary calendar page.
If you don't know the Hebrew year, it may be difficult to get a correct date conversion. You could try to estimate it, but you might end up with an incorrect result. The rules for calculating birthdays and yahrzeits are a bit complicated and depend on the actual attributes of the Hebrew year they occurred in -- was it a leap year (Adar vs. Adar I vs. Adar II)? Short Kislev? Long Cheshvan? For more details, you can read the article How does Hebcal determine anniversaries (birthdays, yahrzeits) in Adar, Cheshvan, or Kislev?

REST API multiple geonameid
Hi
I am building a wordpress plugin to show Shabbat times for user defined geonameid.
Is there a way so send multiple geonameid to the REST API so that is returns multiple locations?
Thanks for using Hebcal APIs.
Our REST APIs accept only a single geonameid. There is no way to send more than one in a single request. The only way to get events for multiple locations is to make multiple API requests.
Golf luck with your application!
Hi, thanks for using Hebcal.
If you used the Hebcal Android (Google Calendar) download instructions, then you should be able to view the same holidays on Google Calendar on your laptop.
Please note, there is a confusingly similar named Android app called HebCal & Widget available on the Google Play store. This app is not affiliated with Hebcal.com in any way. It is developed by a completely separate organization called BotenSoft. The Hebcal name isn't trademarked so we can't stop them from using it.
Although they use the same name, we have no relationship with BotenSoft and cannot offer support for their app.

help | How do I perform an api of the times of the day for the city of Beit Shemesh?
Hello everyone, thank you so much for all you do!
I need a little help, I want to extract data from the api of the times of the day for the city of Beit Shemesh. Can someone help me? I didn't quite understand how to do it...
Hi, thanks for contacting Hebcal!
To get times of the day for Beit Shemesh, you're going to want to use our Zmanim API. When specifying the location, you're going to use the geonameid parameter and the value 295432, which is the numerical ID for Beit Shemesh.
And example URL might be
https://www.hebcal.com/zmanim?cfg=json&geonameid=295432&start=2023-01-30&end=2023-02-12
Good luck! Feel free to post additional questions if you have more.
