How do I view followers of a Gather Topic or Post?

Hi Gyaltsen –

This can be done via these two API endpoints:

List Post Subscriptions: Lists the subscriptions to a given post.
List Topic Subscriptions similarly lists the subscriptions to a given topic.

Similarly, for votes you'd use List Votes

These will give you a list of Zendesk user IDs. To turn those into names, you'll need to use the Show Users API endpoint:
Show User

If you're not experienced at writing API scripts, Postman is a tool that can make the task somewhat easier: How do I set up Postman to make API requests to my Zendesk account?

Hope this helps!

Hi guys, I'm having some trouble with this.

I've used the API calls for a number of things recently. I'm using postman and have had no issues apart from trying to execute the call to:

GET /api/v2/community/topics/{topic_id}/subscriptions

Which I get

"error": "Couldn't authenticate you"

Has anyone else got this on this particular call?

Cheers

When will this data be exposed and queryable in Explore?

Hi, there is nothing at the links for "List Post Subscriptions" or "List Topic Subscriptions."  Do I not have the right level of access?

Dave,

Sorry, I was not clear about what I meant.  I tried to access the endpoints.  When I click on the links I get this message:

I log in with Google, how do I get my auth credentials?

Nvm, I think I figured this part out. I did a password reset.

Also, I believe that there's a typo/outdated info in the dev documentation (or maybe I don't know how to properly read it).

Example:

Show Article

• GET /api/v2/help_center{/locale}/articles/{article_id}

but that wasn't working, and playing around with Postman I finally figured out that it is:

• GET /api/v2/help_center{/locale}/articles/?id={article_id}

Hi Eric - I'm pretty sure that I was doing that part right, as I do know that about brackets. However, whatever the issue is - I'm doing it properly today and it's working! Thanks. :)
