# Differences in Mastodon API responses from vanilla Mastodon
|
|
|
|
A Pleroma instance can be identified by "<Mastodon version> (compatible; Pleroma <version>)" present in `version` field in response from `/api/v1/instance`
|
|
|
|
## Flake IDs
|
|
|
|
Pleroma uses 128-bit ids as opposed to Mastodon's 64 bits. However just like Mastodon's ids they are sortable strings
|
|
|
|
## Attachment cap
|
|
|
|
Some apps operate under the assumption that no more than 4 attachments can be returned or uploaded. Pleroma however does not enforce any limits on attachment count neither when returning the status object nor when posting.
|
|
|
|
## Timelines
|
|
|
|
Adding the parameter `with_muted=true` to the timeline queries will also return activities by muted (not by blocked!) users.
|
|
|
|
## Statuses
|
|
|
|
- `visibility`: has an additional possible value `list`
|
|
|
|
Has these additional fields under the `pleroma` object:
|
|
|
|
- `local`: true if the post was made on the local instance
|
|
- `conversation_id`: the ID of the conversation the status is associated with (if any)
|
|
- `in_reply_to_account_acct`: the `acct` property of User entity for replied user (if any)
|
|
- `content`: a map consisting of alternate representations of the `content` property with the key being it's mimetype. Currently the only alternate representation supported is `text/plain`
|
|
- `spoiler_text`: a map consisting of alternate representations of the `spoiler_text` property with the key being it's mimetype. Currently the only alternate representation supported is `text/plain`
|
|
- `expires_at`: a datetime (iso8601) that states when the post will expire (be deleted automatically), or empty if the post won't expire
|
|
- `thread_muted`: true if the thread the post belongs to is muted
|
|
|
|
## Attachments
|
|
|
|
Has these additional fields under the `pleroma` object:
|
|
|
|
- `mime_type`: mime type of the attachment.
|
|
|
|
## Accounts
|
|
|
|
The `id` parameter can also be the `nickname` of the user. This only works in these endpoints, not the deeper nested ones for following etc.
|
|
|
|
- `/api/v1/accounts/:id`
|
|
- `/api/v1/accounts/:id/statuses`

|
|

|
|
- `hide_follows`: boolean, true when the user has follow hiding enabled
|
|
- `settings_store`: A generic map of settings for frontends. Opaque to the backend. Only returned in `verify_credentials` and `update_credentials`
|

|
|
- `deactivated`: boolean, true when the user is deactivated
|
|
|
|
### Source

|
|
|
|
- `show_role`: boolean, nullable, true when the user wants his role (e.g admin, moderator) to be shown
|
|
- `no_rich_text` - boolean, nullable, true when html tags are stripped from all statuses requested from the API

|
|
|
|
- `recipients`: The list of the recipients of this Conversation. These will be addressed when replying to this conversation.
|
|
|
|
## Account Search
|
|
|
|
Behavior has changed:
|
|
|
|
- `/api/v1/accounts/search`: Does not require authentication
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Notifications
|

|
## POST `/api/v1/statuses`
|
|
|
|
Additional parameters can be added to the JSON body/Form data:
|
|
|
|
- `preview`: boolean, if set to `true` the post won't be actually posted, but the status entitiy would still be rendered back. This could be useful for previewing rich text/custom emoji, for example.
|
|
- `content_type`: string, contain the MIME type of the status, it is transformed into HTML by the backend. You can get the list of the supported MIME types with the nodeinfo endpoint.
|
|
- `to`: A list of nicknames (like `lain@soykaf.club` or `lain` on the local server) that will be used to determine who is going to be addressed by this post. Using this will disable the implicit addressing by mentioned names in the `status` body, only the people in the `to` list will be addressed. The normal rules for for post visibility are not affected by this and will still apply.
|
|
- `visibility`: string, besides standard MastoAPI values (`direct`, `private`, `unlisted` or `public`) it can be used to address a List by setting it to `list:LIST_ID`.
|
|
- `expires_in`: The number of seconds the posted activity should expire in. When a posted activity expires it will be deleted from the server, and a delete request for it will be federated. This needs to be longer than an hour.
|
|
- `in_reply_to_conversation_id`: Will reply to a given conversation, addressing only the people who are part of the recipient set of that conversation. Sets the visibility to `direct`.
|

|
|

|
|
|
|
### Pleroma Settings Store
|
|
Pleroma has mechanism that allows frontends to save blobs of json for each user on the backend. This can be used to save frontend-specific settings for a user that the backend does not need to know about.
|
|
|
|
The parameter should have a form of `{frontend_name: {...}}`, with `frontend_name` identifying your type of client, e.g. `pleroma_fe`. It will overwrite everything under this property, but will not overwrite other frontend's settings.
|
|
|
|
This information is returned in the `verify_credentials` endpoint.
|
|
|
|
