I think you are looking for this REST API

http://community.lithium.com/t5/Community-API/bd-p/developers-rest-api?leaf-id=Blog.tagging#Blog.tagging.tags.all

This will return all tags used in the blog whose ID is specified in the call.

Thanks,

Hi NicoB ,

Thank you for your reply.

But, by using "http://community.lithium.com/community-name/restapi/vc/blogs/id/[id] /tagging/tags/all" url I am getting few tags. I am not able to retrieve all the tags.

Hi vasim5188

the reason why you are getting few tags is because Lithium by default only gives you the first 25 results.

If you happen to have more than 25 tags used for a specific blog, then you have to use the pagination approach.

First of all you determine how many tags you have:

http://community.lithium.com/community-name/restapi/vc/blogs/id/[id]/tagging/tags/all/count

Then you should calculate how many pages you want to query for:

pages = count / [tags per page]

And then, for each page you can run;

http://community.lithium.com/community-name/restapi/vc/blogs/id/[id]/tagging/tags/all/count?page=[NUMBER]&page_size=[NUM TAGS PER PAGE]

I hope this helps.

Thanks,

Nico
