An API for selecting messages with specific labels at the Community level?

I'm new to Lithum and have a need to retrieve messages, having a specific label, at the Community level. So far I haven't found the right combination of community-level URL and for/labels/text/ABC/...

Hi tene 

 

I think you can look at the /for/labels filters on our standard REST API calls:

 

All messages

 

http://lithosphere.lithium.com/t5/rest-api/bd-p/developers-rest-api?leaf-id=Community.posts#Community.posts.for.labels.text.label_text

Only root topic messages

http://lithosphere.lithium.com/t5/rest-api/bd-p/developers-rest-api?leaf-id=Community.topics#Community.topics.for.labels.text.label_text

 

Normally you can identify the label by ID or text. I believe you can also apply those filters to the /recent path to get the messages ordered by recency.

 

Hope this helps,
