Getting a list of "floated" topics.

Hi all,

Using the rest API, how can I get a list of topics that have been floated?

I see them floated to the top of the Recent Posts component and would lke to do a similar thing in my custom component.

Thanks

Geoff

Floats are (strangely) a type of subscription in the Lithium app. You can make a REST API call like the following to get floated threads for a board:

/restapi/vc/boards/id/{board id}/subscriptions/global/float/thread

  I am trying to get the response of the floating threads using jquery from our community using the restapi in custom component, but nothing is happening?

  By any chance, we can get the list of floated threads inside a community rather than the boards? I need to get the floated threads from a community (from all boards inside it)and need to display them on the category page.

    Hi Gursimrat,
    
    I think you have access to the subscription node from the community node (as well as the board node) , see

    So it should be pretty straightforward.
    
    Thanks,
