I’m trying to grab the posts within a date interval from our discourse server using the API. I’m struggling quite a lot with pagination. Firstly I tried using search.json but that limits us to 50 results: https://meta.discourse.org/search.json?q=after:2016-01-01%20before:2017-01-01 I tried to use…

Second (3rd, 4th, etc.,) query string should look like below. & symbol instead of ? https://meta.discourse.org/search/query.json?term=after:2016-01-01%20before:2017-01-01&page=2 https://meta.discourse.org/search/query.json?term=API&page=2 not like this https://meta.discourse.org/search/query.jso…

Oops. Getting the links wrong is what made me believe discourse support pagination using page=X in the first place (my own bad conversion from curl to a web browser).

There are actually two search endpoints you can hit /search.json?q= and /search/query?term= term just means search term and does not refer to period or duration. For understanding the search API it would be best to follow Reverse engineer the Discourse API and perform the searches you are intendin…

hi @blake , Thank you for the reply. [image] blake: For understanding the search API it would be best to follow How to reverse engineer the Discourse API and perform the searches you are intending to do via the API and see how the UI makes the same API requests. Actually, I’d like the grab t…

There is no single API call that will fetch ALL of the topics in the category. You will have to make multiple api calls. This is because a category could have 1 million+ topics and that could be a huge query and affect the performance of your site. When you reverse engineer the scrolling you can see…

I don’t know if it’ll help, but I wrote a little ruby program that will download all of a topic or category. (It doesn’t pay attention to dates, though.)
