Note on commentIds:

  • While using the suggested request methods, remember all comments are also nodes and, in almost all cases, fields and parameters that work with nodes will also work with comments.

    • Please refer to the node section if you want to review the details relevant to these requests.
  • Remember: All concrete sub-types of node (questions, answers, or comments) share the same pool of assigned identifiers.

    • You can find a comment's commentId in the comment revisions URL after /revisions/. For example: http://localhost:8888/qa/revisions/303.html (The commentId in this example is 303).
    • You can also find a Comment ID by making a request to retrieve a list of all the comments.
    • Anywhere you need a commentId for a request, the nodeId will serve the same purpose (they are the same number).
