using rtm.tasks.getList without list_id

[Mark McDonagh]

Hello,

Is it possible to use https://www.rememberthemilk.com/services/api/methods/rtm.tasks.getList.rtm without a list_id ?

I'm trying to create a function call that will return all tasks that have a particular tag.

Yes, just pass it the filter argument as a string. The filter is the equivalent of using the search in RTM.

rtm.tasks.getList(filter='tag:mytag')

Note that the search can sometimes behave slightly different when using the API as opposed to in the app. For example pulling all tasks will pull every task, whether a parent task or sub task.

Hope that helps.

Rob

thanks but why then does the following error code exist for this method ?

320 list_id invalid or not provided

No list_id provided / list_id invalid.
