Activity Feeds v3 is in beta — try it out!

Feed views

When to use feed views

Feed groups let you define what activities should be included in the feed and the ranking to sort these activities.

By default all feeds in the given group will have the same settings. However, you might want to experiment with different selectors and rankings. Feed views let you do that by overriding the group’s default settings.

Note that any write operation to feed groups/views can take up to 30 seconds to propagate to all API nodes.

Applications can’t have more than 100 feed views

Feed view operations are only available on server-side.

await serverClient.feeds.createFeedView({
  id: "<view id>",
  activity_selectors: [
    {
      type: "following",
    },
  ],
  ranking: { type: "recency" },
});
feed.getOrCreate({
  // Override the default view id
  view: "<id of a feed view>",
});

With custom feed views you can control

  • Activity selectors
  • Ranking
  • Aggregation

List feed views

To list existing feed views and their configurations:

await client.feeds.listFeedViews();

Updating feed views

It’s possible to update any custom or built-in feed views.

await serverClient.feeds.updateFeedView({
  id: "<view id to update>",
  // Fields to update
});

Deleting feed views

await serverClient.feeds.deleteFeedView({
  id: "view id to delete",
});
