Hi all.   I was trying to use the APIs to get the count of new threads (for a specific board) created in the last 24 hours. I tried to use the "recent" API but I'm not sure whats the logic behin...

    I wonder how long before people start to be annoyed by my 'Rest API v2' responses ... ;-)

     

    If not urgent, just wait until the Rest API v2 comes out the beta version (very soon). Then, I strongly believe LiQL will help you achieving what you want.

     

    Having said that, I'm not 100% sure you will get the count with a select query ...

     

    Now, if it's a bit more urgent, you could have a look at the metrics. In your community admin, in metrics, if you can manage to get the count of your new thread in a specific board, you should be able to do the same using our metrics api.

Hey OlivierS .

 

Thanks for your reply.

I wasn't aware of Rest API v2, is there any link that we can use to know a little more about that?

I'll give a try at the metrics solution.

 

Cheers.

Nic

    Well, there is a link. But it might just be visible for Lithium employees and customers who are on the beta program ... I just assumed the link was visible to everyone as I was seeing it. Doh!

     

    Have a look here. If nothing happens, then you will have to wait a little bit.

     

    Best is probably to subscribe to the release notes - if not already - to get notify when it gets out.

     

    I will try to update this thread too once it's public ...
