Ask API - trending questions

Retrieve trending questions across your site.

Since 1.11.6

The trending_questions API is an alternative to the related questions API. Instead of generating questions against a specific article, it returns the questions that are currently trending across your site, which makes it a good fit for pages without an anchor article, such as the home page.

Syntax

const response = await client.api.ask.trendingQuestions(payload, options);

Payload

The payload parameter is an object with the following properties:

Name	Type	Description
`rows`	integer	Number of questions to retrieve.

Return value

A Promise of response object with the following properties:

Name	Type	Description
`related_questions`	array of strings	An array of questions.

Note that the response property is named related_questions, the same as the related questions API.

Examples

const payload = {
  rows: 5
};
const { related_questions } = await client.api.ask.trendingQuestions(payload);
