Use of '*' in API queries to get all results .

[sagarpreet-chadha]

We have this API implemented here :

plots2/app/api/srch/search.rb

Line 224 in ba05350

# Request URL should be /api/srch/taglocations?query=QRY[&tag=awesome]

We need to fetch all the results (they can be thousands in number!) if the query parameter used is 'question:*' .

For example :
/api/srch/taglocations?tagName=question:*

Happy to help ! Thank you !

@sagarpreet-chadha Could you please explain me this issue..

[sagarpreet-chadha]

Hi sure 😄 !
We basically want to get all the question-posts on publiclab.org which have latitude and longitude tags to be returned from the above API .
Makes sense ? Thanks !
