API Call for live topic stream

We'd like to include a stream on our Disney travel page (we are a HUGE provider of Disney travel).  I am not really a programmer by trade so I am trying to figure a little of this out on my own. I looked through the Class NodeSearchContext documentation. Would the call for such a stream look something like:

 

http://<your community domain path>/restapi/vc/search/disney

?

Ps - don't worry. I'm working with a developer, they just want examples of how the code would be used.

Many thanks!

  • You probably want something more like:

     

    http://<your community domain path>/restapi/vc/search/messages?q=disney

     

    You may also want to use tags to hone in on Disney-related items directly.  For example, if you are sure that all such items are tagged with "disney" try:

     

    http://<your community domain path>/restapi/vc/tagging/for/tags/text/disney/messages/recent

  • Ah... I figured it was a little more complex than what I had posted. Most of our forum posts aren't tagged (which is an cleanup issue on my part) so we wouldn't be able to pull from them at this point. Thanks!
