About this endpoint

GET /v1/flickr/groups/{groupId}/discussions returns data.group (id, alias, name and member count) and a page of data.topics. Each topic carries id, subject, message as HTML, author (with role and avatar), replyCount, isSticky, isLocked, createdAt, lastPostAt and lastEditAt.

Use limit and page.nextCursor to walk the topics. To read one topic’s replies, call GET /v1/flickr/groups/{groupId}/discussions/{topicId}/replies. A member-only group returns lookupStatus: private.

Flickr Group Discussions API FAQ

Where do I get the topic id?

It is each row’s id in this response, and it is also the number in a topic URL. Use it with the replies route.

Does the message include HTML?

Yes. message is the first post as HTML, with the text as the author wrote it.

How much does a topic page cost?

Pricing is documented on the operation in the API registry (shown on this page). Confirm on every response with meta.creditsCharged: that field is the billing source of truth. Each paginated page is a separate billed request.

What do sticky and locked mean?

isSticky marks a topic pinned to the top of the group’s list. isLocked marks a topic that no longer accepts replies.
