before_id paramter in http://api.tumblr.com/v2/user/dashboard removed?

[David Strippgen]

Hi there,

I used the "before_id" parameter, in "http://api.tumblr.com/v2/user/dashboard".

That has been working -though undocumented- for several years, but now it seems like this is does not work anymore.

Has anybody the same experience, or am I doing something wrong (since recently...)

Thanks and best,

David

Hi David,

Are you by chance making a POST request to `/v2/user/dashboard`? We recently fixed a bug where we were mistakenly reading in parameters from the body instead of the query.

If so, if you switch your request to a GET, it should work correctly again. If not, can you send me the specific requests you're making, and I'll take a closer look.

Sorry for the confusion.

Regards,

Mike

I could be incorrect, but I remember investigating this issue.  IIRC I used a proxy to discover what the official Tumblr apps routes did.  I discovered an undocumented parameter called "after_id" that actually did what the API documented "before_id" would do.

Of course, this was a while ago so I could be wrong.
