Unfortunately, that is not possible. The only information that you can cull from the Admin panel are metrics, node titles, node short titles, node descriptions, and settings.
Thank you...
I was re-reading this again because I got another request for this same feature and I want to make sure you didn't simply misunderstand my question.
Your response makes it look like I'm trying to get info out of the Admin panel. I was originally just stating that we set this in the admin panel, but it actually displays to the users who come to our forum. A poll is a good example. We set it up in the Admin panel, but it displays to users and we can still grab it using the Rest API.
It's the Announcement that I'm asking about.
If that's not available to us, that's ok. I just want to make sure you didn't misunderstand what I was asking for...
Its good that you checked, because you are right, I was replying to the question of whether or not you could control the content (which is an action that is taken via the Admin console) from the API.
After looking through the calls that we have available in our API, it does not seem like you can grab the Announcements content. I'm actually surprised a bit by this myself and think that this would be a useful addition to our REST APi. I would like to suggest that you submit it as an "Idea" in our Ideas section. You'll certainly have my vote. :)
