Usage of /posts GET
Discussion
Fetches all posts (questions and answers) on the site.
In many ways this method is the union of /questions and /answers, returning both sets of data albeit only the common fields.
Most applications should use the question or answer specific methods, but /posts
is available for those
rare cases where any activity is of interest. Examples of such queries would be: "all posts on Jan. 1st 2011" or "top 10 posts by score
of all time".
The sorts accepted by this method operate on the following fields of the post object:
- activity –
last_activity_date
- creation –
creation_date
- votes –
score
activity
is the default sort.It is possible to create moderately complex queries using
sort
, min
, max
, fromdate
, and todate
.
This method returns a list of posts.
