    Hi Claudius,

     

    the messages/leaderboard call requires that you specify a time-frame to look at to determine the leaderboard. This is the max_age parameter and it's documented here 

     

    To take the Lithosphere's Customer Ideas board as an example, you could do:

     

    http://lithosphere.lithium.com/restapi/vc/boards/id/Lithium_Ideas/kudos/messages/leaderboard?max_age=all

     To get the most kudoed messages of all time :smileyhappy: 

     

    You can also pass a page_size and page attribute to play with the pagination.

     

    Hope that helps !

Thanks, that did the trick.

 

Maybe the REST API documentation should have required parameters written in bold for developers like me ;)
