Hi Claudius,
This works for single tag.
what if I want to filter messages of more than one tags.

E.g. I want to filter messages having "tag1" or "tag2" or "tag3" or any combination of selected Tags.

Hi dhiraj_gophane

 

may you try this?

 

/restapi/vc/search/messages?q=is_root:true%20AND%20tags:(tag1%20OR%20tag2)

is_root means topics only, no replies, if you want the reply, it will like

 

/restapi/vc/search/messages?q=tags:(tag1%20OR%20tag2)

 

I hope that it can help you.

 

 

Best Regards

Haidong

 

 btw: if your tag contains space, you will need to use something like

 

/restapi/vc/search/messages?q=is_root:true%20AND%20tags:(%22test%20space%22)

 

we are searching for topics with tag="test space" in the above example.

    Hi,
    I'm using same Rest API.
    but for some tags it fetches messages which do not include that Tag.

    E.g. /restapi/vc/boards/id/blogger/search/messages?q=is_root:true%20AND%20tags:(Activity)

    where, Activity is a Tag.

    Is there any other way to fetch these messages by passing tag list?

      hi dhiraj_gophane,

       

      can you give exact messages which don't have the tags but got picked up by the REST API call? it sounds a bug for me. you may want to fill a ticket with Lithium Support.

       

      Best Regards
