    Hi,

     

    you can switch that by changing the "config.hidden" setting:

     

    http://<community>/restapi/vc/boards/id/<board_id>/settings/name/config.hidden/set?value=true

     

    Cheers,

Hi ChiaraS,

 

Need some additional information from you.

By using the rest API call given by you, I can set the value of config.hidden field only for already created boards.

Now suppose, I am creating a new board through rest API call and I want to set the value of config.hidden field at the same time.

Is this possible ?

 

Let me know if there is any way.

 

Thanks,

Vishwajeet

Don't think it's possible in 1 call, you will have the use 2 calls for this...

      Hi,

       

      not sure what you mean. You can set that via REST at creation time, but you would need to invoke 2 calls, 1 to create the board and 1 to set the flag to true:

       

      http://<community>/restapi/vc/categories/id/<category_id>/nodes/type/key/blog/add?blog.id=<blog_id>&blog.title=<title>

      http://<community>/restapi/vc/boards/id/<blog_id>/settings/name/config.hidden/set?value=true

       

      If for some reason you're only able to perform 1 call, then no it's not possible.
