I want to add private tags to some posts via the API without notifying the users in any way. Adding tags works already, but it adds the pencil icon to the post and notifies the user that the topic has been edited. It looks like there is a way to hide the pencil manually, but the user still receives…

I think using the Append Tag option in the Bulk Actions adds the tag to the topic(s) silently without adding a pencil icon. You should be able to use the API to replicate that (if you use Reverse engineer the Discourse API you can see the endpoint and parameters you’ll need)

I think if you use system user, it should not notify the user. lib/post_revisor.rb main end def update_topic_excerpt @topic.update_excerpt(@post.excerpt_for_topic)

Thanks, that seems to work in the UI. I’ll try it with the API tomorrow. In case anyone else is looking for it in the future: PUT https://forum.example.com/topics/bulk Form data copied from the browser console: topic_ids%5B%5D=12345&operation%5Btype%5D=append_tags&operation%5Btags%5D%5B%5D=tagna…

Можно ли редактировать посты через API без уведомления пользователя?
