How do I get a list of Upvotes on a particular post? Details of the voters on a post, basically

Hi @Cornelia there’s no way to do this out of the box - you’d have to enter the topics you wanted to see this information on via the front end e.g on this topic: 

If you hover over this element you’ll see which users specifically 
 

 

 

If its idea votes you’re after, then this information is available on the idea itself:
 

 

Now if you’re looking to extract this idea information into report form - you could in theory achieve this via these 2 api calls:

https://api2-us-west-2.insided.com/docs/community/#operation/getIdeaList

https://api2-us-west-2.insided.com/docs/community/#operation/getIdea

In these calls there should be a “votedBy” object which will give you the numerical user IDs of the users who upvoted the idea.

 

 

The likes information can be retrieved with this endpoint:

https://api2-us-west-2.insided.com/docs/community/#tag/Unified-content-(Topics)

 

Same principle applies - you should see “likeSet” object, again with the user IDs of the users who liked the topic.

Hello, thank you. However, I want a report of all the upvotes, the details of each user instead of just their user names, I would like a detailed report of their user name, full name, email address, company etc. 

 

 

Thanks @Cornelia for creating this thread. Our product team wants a report like this a week to get some additional information on the users who have upvoted a specific idea. I am not intune enough to write an API call to write… hoping to have found an idea instead for this. 

Is it a safe assumption that there is currently no way for a member to see a list of ideas they have upvoted?

Hi @erin.brisson - that’s correct.  There’s currently no easy or out-of-the-box way to provide a member with self-service access to a list of all of the ideas they have upvoted.

Ok, thanks for confirming.
