Events API not returning realtime_servers

I'm following the documentation here: https://developer.box.com/reference/options-events/ to get the list of long polling URLs for my app, but my results don't include any `realtime_server` entries, only a single `event` entry.

```json

{
entries: [
{
type: 'event',
event_id: 'some_event_ID',
created_by: [Object],
created_at: '2021-01-12T11:21:43-08:00',
recorded_at: '2021-01-12T11:21:44-08:00',
event_type: 'ITEM_CREATE',
session_id: 'bvqy9vgmlin0cnvu',
source: [Object]
}
],
chunk_size: 1,
next_stream_position: 18578959018927400
}

```

My code is pretty straightforward, just a get request against https://api.box.com/2.0/events/. Did I setup my app incorrectly?

OK, so this is weird. When I execute the same request via curl, I get the `realtime_server` entry I'm expecting. Any suggestions?

Nevermind, I figured it out. I was doing a get from my code instead of an options request. I'm not a big `curl` user, so I didn't understand that parameter in the example.
