Add popular bookmarks to a web page 

Embed the most popular bookmarks into your web pages. Your web application can use this resource to enable users to see and navigate to the most popular bookmarks embedded on your web page.

This lists the bookmarks that multiple users have bookmarked recently. It captures the bookmarks that are displayed in the Most Bookmarked in the last 30 days section of the Popular tab of the Bookmarks application.

Note: The administrator can change the number of days from 30 to something different.

To find out how to add all bookmarks to a page, retrieve the resources described in Add bookmarks to a web page and Add a list of bookmarks to a web page.

Note: Search can only find bookmarks that the indexer has processed. The indexing interval is stored in a configuration property that your administrator can configure. See Manage search and index operations in the Administer Bookmarks section of the IBM Connections product documentation for more details.
