Hi,
I am trying to use the search REST API to get the results which i could do. When the search result comes back, I get certain fields along, but I don't see any solved/solution flag with it. I know I can individually (with message) can make a call and find out if that is solved or not, but that would be inefficient. Is there any way I can get this flag (and also replies count) in the search result set directly?
Help is appreciated.
Thanks.
Hi,
wouldn't it be an option to just consider an extra call per thread returned by search? I believe this would be acceptable from a performance perspective (assuming the search result page is paged)
For example
http://lithosphere.lithium.com/restapi/vc/threads/id/129799?page_size=1
(we use page_size=1 as we are not really interested in the details of all the replies) - will tell you how many replies your thread had and the details about the solution (if available). If we search for a topic which has no solution (this one, at the time of writing :-) )
http://lithosphere.lithium.com/restapi/vc/threads/id/62298?page_size=1
We can see that there is nothing in the solutions element.
Thanks,
