How do I subscribe and unsubscribe to a label using API?

Hi AbhishekIlindra - This is not the same API.

That link mentioned in the discussion : https://<our community>.stage.lithium.com/community/s/restapi/vc/boards/id/<boardid>/labels/predefined

shows a list of labels for the board but I want to *subscribe* to a label.

I tried to find all the related stuff to labels but it seems lithium does not provide any such API. 

I have been doing some digging. Looks like there could be few ways:

1> This is how Lithium seems to do it by associating every link with ticket id and the following URL call will subscribe me to "Bulk Data" label.

https://community.lithium.com/t5/tkb/v2/page.filteredbylabelname.subscribetolabelname.link:subscribeaction/label-name/Bulk%20Data/board-id/studio%40tkb/subscribed/false?t:ac=blog-id/studio%40tkb/label-name/bulk%20data&ticket=<ticketid> 
 

However, our community uses "lia-action-token" and form HTTP post request with token to achieve. How can we update to ticket based HTTP post requests? If so, how can I obtain a ticket?

2> VikasB This person's question makes me believe it's possible but there are no responses to him https://community.lithium.com/t5/Developer-Discussion/Subscription-REST-call-fails-as-admin/m-p/270530

(I get the same behavior when I tried myself)

Hi gstelang  

ttadej was working on board/blog/QandA subscription. That can be done as API exists for board/blog/QandA subscription.  

But it throwing off when it comes to label subscription as no API seems to exist. I do not think it is feasible using API.

Here are some similar discussions

Thanks, VikasB for the Help! I will reach out to Lithium engineer if anything custom can be built for us.

Yes, you can reach out to support team or you can post your ideas here also.  You know initially, there was not the manual subscription to a label also but someone posted an idea here and Lithium implemented it.
