Getting a list of recent messages via API
I am having some difficulty in getting a list of recent messages via the API. I located a post in these forums that showed me the following URL: http://lithosphere.lithium.com/lithium/restapi/vc...
Forum Discussion
Yeah, that is a bit odd. I am an anonymous user and I can see this API response just fine:
http://community.sagesaleslogix.com/slsl/restapi/vc/boards/id/hello
So the good news is that we at least have a "dial tone".
Now, when I try to get the latest messages from that board in particular, I am successful:
http://community.sagesaleslogix.com/slsl/restapi/vc/boards/id/hello/messages/latest
And when I go into the Community level and want to find out what the names of the categories are, I am successful:
http://community.sagesaleslogix.com/slsl/restapi/vc/categories
But you're right, when I try to get recent posts from the Category or Community level, I'm having trouble...
I'll keep looking into this. BTW, when is your upgrade to v9?
Ok, I think you need to upgrade to v9 in order to get that API call.
The closest I can get you is recent threads for your entire community, not recent posts:
http://community.sagesaleslogix.com/slsl/restapi/vc/threads/recent
I hope this will help until you can get on v9.
