Table 1. Atom API request details

Resource Description

Note: {homepage} represents the blog handle of the blog configured to be the home page of the Blogs application. The handle is defined when the home page blog is created by the administrator.

You can use one or more input parameters to limit the number of blog posts returned in the feed. Separate multiple parameters with an ampersand (&).

Table 2. Input parameters

adam_eventide%40garden.com

Note: Do not provide this parameter if IBM Connections is configured to prevent email addresses from being displayed. It will return an error. Use the userid parameter instead.

> GET /blogs/home/feed/recommended/atom HTTP/1.1
