Hi,

First of all, thank you for this great API/data!

Second, I saw that there is Shavuot I (17.05.2021) and Shavuot II (18.05.2021) in the API as I'm a jew and living in Israel I don't know anything about these two, Shavuot is a two days holiday, there is only Shavuot Eve (Erev Shavuot 16.05.2021) and Shavuot (17.05.2021).

here is a picture from google to confirm it:

I'm using the Converter REST API.

According to the documentation (here, near the bottom of the page) this should return the day of the Omer.

However when I try it (https://www.hebcal.com/converter?cfg=json&gy=2021&gm=4&gd=5&g2h=1) then no Omer event is returned in the Events section.

Am I missing something?

Is there a way to get Yahrzeit dates from Jewish calendar REST API

I need to get next anniversary dates by looking at date of death a person. 

I tried to find the solution on Hebcal site, they are provided a REST API for calendar, and UI to calculate that dates also, but I could not to find REST api method for it

this is the UI,https://www.hebcal.com/yahrzeit

I need that data as JSON from REST API.

If anyone have experience on that please let know me

Thanks 

The Hanukkah Torah reading for weekdays (per Ashkenazic custom outside of Israel) is two days of the princes bringing offerings from the section of Numbers 7 (e.g., on day 3 of Hanukkah we read of the prince who brought offerings on day 3), plus the prince who brought offerings on day 4).  On Shabbat of Hanukkah (when not also Rosh Hodesh) we read the regular Torah reading for 7 aliyot, and the maftir reading is just one prince, corresponding to that day of Hanukkah (e.g., if Shabbat is day 3 we read of the prince from day 3 only).  Hebcal.com right now is showing that the Shabbat of Hanukkah this year we read from Numbers 7:18-29, which is two princes:

I'm guessing the algorithm is just using the weekday Hanukkah custom to figure out what the Shabbat maftir reading should be, but that seems to be incorrect.  For the source of the Hanukkah reading, you can check Shulkhan Aruch OH 684:2 (note 6 in the Mishnah Berurah specifies only one prince in the maftir).

With all of the different dates currently included in Hebcal, would it be possible to please also add Yom Kippur Katan?

I would greatly appreciate your sending a complete set of candle lighting and Havdalah times for a chag BEFORE the chag begins. 

I looked up the times for the last 2 days of Pesach at another site during chol hamoed, so I could post them on my kitchen cabinet IN ADVANCE. 

I was sent the times via HebCal AFTER the 7th day had already started (east coast USA) which was not helpful. 

This type of issue has happened before, and is very frustrating and disappointing. I appreciate the HebCal email service, but it’s disturbing that the info is incomplete. It also leads me to wonder if the info is reliable, since this type of problem is easily preventable by better planning. 

Have you considered/investigated adding to the skill that when you mute the Echo Show for Shabbat the Show will display cards with the localized zmanim for that day? 

Hello!

I have just purchased a new laptop with Windows 10 and cannot transfer my personal data to the new laptop.

Can you help me?

I really love that I can ask Alexa what time shabbos is but if your data set is based on zip codes only, I get times for California instead of ISRAEL! Please please update this skill to accommodate international use!!
