A number of feature additions have been made to the DAAPI in the past few weeks.  The documentation for the Content DAAPI and the People DAAPI has been updated to reference all new functionality.  A summary of the changes to both DAAPIs is below, but check out the latest documentation for full technical specifications on all the latest functionality.

 

The People DAAPI contains the following enhancements: 

 
A summary of improvements to the Content DAAPI is listed below: 

  • The content feed now contains an additional element for "Alias" which allows a specific content type to contain a custom label.
  • Additional elements are returned in the content feed for Topics such as Last Post Creation Date, Last Post Creator's Title etc.  This allows the full Flux discussion board functionality to be built using the DAAPI and FML.
  • Additional elements are returned in the content feed for Videos, including ISRC, Embed Code, original source URL
  • The DAAPI content feed now fully supports Audio and Album content types
  • An additional parameter can be specified for "date-range".  This allows the content feed to be filtered by creation date, as in the following example: http://daapi.flux.com/2.0/00001/XML/E2F6FFFF0099C7740002FFFFF6E2/feeds/news/?date-range=month
  • For external content, the Single Content Feed now contains an element for "OriginalUri" which specifies the external permalink/URI of the content
  • The Single Content Feed is fully widgets compatible, so allows content to be retrieved without a Flux content UCID (i.e. by external permalink/URI).  As with the People DAAPI this will initiate discovery of the external content into Flux.  As with the People feed example, permalinks must be escaped.  An example is here: http://daapi.flux.com/2.0/00001/XML/E2F6FFFF0099C7740002FFFFF6E2/feeds/content/?q=http%3A%2F%2Ffluxblog.info%2F%3Fp%3D24
