Atom API request details

Resource Description
/roller-ui/feed/{emailaddress} This feed returns a redirect to the user's default blog handle.

A handle is specified when a blog is first created and is used in the construction of Web addresses used to query the entries in a blog. {emailaddress} represents the e-mail address of the person whose blog you want to search. Format the HTTP request using the proper URL encoding. For example, the encoded form of the @ symbol is %40 as in:

    adam_eventide%40garden.com
    

If Lotus Connections is configured to prevent e-mail addresses from being displayed, use the {userid} resource instead.
