I´m working with the Discourse API.
The website I’m working on gets all the data from the Discourse API. I’m having the issue that because I’m actually not viewing the Topics and Notification, and only getting data through the api, then my topics and notification are not registered as viewed.
How should I solve this issue?

If I’m following, you need to make an API call to this endpoint:
put "t/:id" => "topics#update"
delete "t/:id" => "topics#destroy"
put "t/:id/archive-message" => "topics#archive_message"
put "t/:id/move-to-inbox" => "topics#move_to_inbox"
put "t/:id/convert-topic/:type" => "topics#convert_topic"
put "t/:id/publish" => "topics#publish"
put "t/:id/shared-draft" => "topics#update_shared_draft"
put "t/:id/reset-bump-date" => "topics#reset_bump_date"
put "topics/bulk"
put "topics/reset-new" => 'topics#reset_new'
post "topics/timings"
get 'topics/similar_to' => 'similar_topics#index'
resources :similar_topics
get "topics/feature_stats"
scope "/topics", username: RouteFormat.username do
get "created-by/:username" => "list#topics_by", as: "topics_by", constraints: { format: /(json|html)/ }, defaults: { format: :json }
get "private-messages/:username" => "list#private_messages", as: "topics_private_messages", constraints: { format: /(json|html)/ }, defaults: { format: :json }
get "private-messages-sent/:username" => "list#private_messages_sent", as: "topics_private_messages_sent", constraints: { format: /(json|html)/ }, defaults: { format: :json }

Thanks for the reply.
How would this post request help me?
It will mark the posts as “viewed”, which is what you wrote in the first post.
joebuhlig:
topics/timings
How should the api request look like ?
something like this?
{{base_url}}/t/timings/topic_Id.json?

You could start with following the code back to the controller. Everything you need to know about the method is there.

I already tried do the reverse engineering.
The only response i get from the network tab is
{{baseurl}} + /t/3295.json?track_visit=true&forceLoad=true&_=1550774445459

You gotta read it carefully.
Right clicking a request to timings and selecting copy a cURL will give you all you need for a request using the cURL syntax (the standard format for most people):
curl 'https://meta.discourse.org/topics/timings' \
-H 'Accept: */*' \
-H 'Accept-Language: en-US,en;q=0.5' \
-H 'X-CSRF-Token: LONGTOKENHERE' \
-H 'Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded; charset=UTF-8' \
-H 'X-SILENCE-LOGGER: true' \
-H 'Discourse-Logged-In: true' \
-H 'Discourse-Visible: true' \
-H 'X-Requested-With: XMLHttpRequest' \
--data 'timings%5B3%5D=1019&timings%5B4%5D=1019&topic_time=1019&topic_id=108685' \
--compressed

This is what I got from the network tab
What is the the number beside the timings variable?

Hallo Edwin, hast du herausgefunden, wie man die Daten bekommt? Timings und topic_time? Oder wie man es zum Laufen bringt? Ich habe das gleiche Problem. Danke!

Kann mir bitte jemand erklären, was die Werte für timings und topic_time bedeuten? Sind das die Sekunden, die für das Thema aufgewendet wurden?
