.json endpoint to receive array of arbitrary posts with a single request

Hi,

Is there an .json endpoint that allows me to request an arbitrary collection of posts by id? I’m talking posts here, not topics.

For example posts.json?id=2,9,40,388,... etc etc.

Been looking through the code but couldn’t find it…

(It’s important that the response contains the full post bodies, so not only excerpts)

I don’t think so.

If you print a topic it will give you all of the posts. You can Reverse engineer the Discourse API to see what request that makes.

Out of curiosity, what would be your use case? :slight_smile:

Building a proof-of-concept of a Discourse-powered shared-bookmarking system.

I’d do that in a plugin so you could create your own endpoint that returned /bookmarks/user/USERNAME or whatever you want.

Or even easier might be to just add to some serializer the bookmarks you want.
