Do all values for notification_style in Notification Feed actually exist?

Per the documentation: https://community.lithium.com/t5/Developer-Documentation/bd-p/dev-doc-portal?section=commv2&collection=notification_feeds

 

There are a TON of values for notification_style in the Notification Feed API. They are: board, label, kudos, mentions, message, search, solutions, tag, tkb, topic, user, badge, rank, customEvent, moderationAction

 

However, I cannot find any further documentation about some of these notification styles. In particular:

  • message (is this a private message or something else?)
  • search (is this a subscription search? if so it doesn't seem to be working)
  • tag (??)
  • user

I'm also confused by this part of the documentation because notification_style is not returned in the API call, but rather subscription_type which has some of the values listed in notification_style. If you have any ideas around how these work I'd like to know more! Thanks

  • ttadej is absolutely right, there is quite a discrepancy of what the docs say and what the API actually returns, the docs talks about information that is simply never found in any API response... not sure why that is, but it should be cleaned up.
