Adding Reactions

Copied!

Reactions are a special kind of data that can be used to capture user interaction with specific activities. Common examples of reactions are likes, comments, and upvotes. Reactions are automatically returned to feeds' activities at read time when the reactions parameters are used.

Reactions are always related to activities; in order to add a reaction to an activity you need to provide its ID.

Retrieving Reactions

Copied!

You can read reactions and filter them based on their user_id or activity_id values. Further filtering can be done with the kind parameter (e.g. retrieve all likes by one user, retrieve all comments for one activity, etc.).

Reactions are returned in descending order (newest to oldest) by default and when using id_lt[e] , and in ascending order (oldest to newest) when using id_gt[e].
