## Changelog

### 2026-09-19

*Fixes*

- Fixed on-sale timestamps and preserved offer-level start times when Bandsintown publishes multiple ticket offers.
- Aligned omitted-input behavior with the documented `past` event default.

*Reliability*

- Made embedded artist data parsing tolerant of harmless script formatting changes and added clearer not-found, challenge, parser, and no-match diagnostics.
- Sped up optional event-detail enrichment with a bounded four-request worker pool while preserving event order and base records when a detail request fails.

*Changes*

- Added enrichment columns to the concert events dataset view.

### 2026-08-23

*Reliability*

- Restored reliable access to Cloudflare-protected artist and concert pages with Web Unblocker and automatic fallback from custom Apify Proxy routes.

### 2026-08-01

*Reliability*

- Improved Cloudflare challenge recovery and aligned the browser fingerprint with the bundled Chromium version so artist and concert pages load reliably.

### 2026-07-13

*Features*

- Initial release for extracting public Bandsintown artist profiles and concert events by artist name, ID, or profile URL.
- Supports upcoming, past, all, and custom date scopes with cross-artist event deduplication.
- Adds optional event detail enrichment for venue coordinates, full lineups, descriptions, and ticket offers.
- Produces export-ready event and artist views for Apify datasets and integrations.

*Reliability*

- Uses conservative residential browser sessions, resource blocking, bounded retries, and partial-failure handling for Cloudflare-protected pages.
