xml-rpc or atom api to support tags?

By ZeGuigui on May 21, 2008 at 2:16 PM 3 Vote 0 Votes

Hello,

Is there a way to set an entry tags using either XML-RPC or Atom client API?

I managed to create an entry, set its category, keyword, content... but could not find any solution to set its tags.

Atom client API specification states that "tags" could be represented as 'category' but it seems it is not supported by MT.

I fetched an existing entry (with tags) using Atom client API from my blog and did not find any trace of thoses tags in the returned feed.

Thanks!

    It appears that Movable Type does support the specification of entry tags via the XML-RPC endpoint. You will need to specify a list of comma delimited (the delimit character actually depends upon your user's preferences) tags in an element called ``.

    The Atom endpoint will support tags in the next version.

If you need to share template code, replace all the "<" signs with "&lt;" or use this utility.
