PayPal community forum latest posts using REST API

Hi ,

 

I am trying to get the latest posts from the PayPal community forum and I am following steps given here in this link

http://lithosphere.lithium.com/t5/Developers-Knowledge-Base/Obtaining-Latest-Posts-Top-Kudoed-Posts-and-Top-Kudoed-Authors/ta-p/6835

 

I have formed an URL to grep the comments but I am not getting the xml response.

https://www.paypal-community.com/Hot-Topics/restapi/vc/posts/recent

 

Could you please guide me , what I missing or how to form the URL ?

 

Thanks,

Naresh

  • Hi Naresh,

     

    If you mean that you also want to receive the body of the post in addtion to the subject line, you can add this parameter to the end of your current call.

     

    ?restapi.format_detail=full_list_element.

     

    If you want a topic and all its responses, you'll want to make a different call.  For example, this discussion: http://lithosphere.lithium.com/lithium/restapi/vc/threads/id/56362

     

    Does that help?
