Is it possible to get a list of used tags via the api?

Hi Matt,
Yes, you can get a list of used tags by using the search API. Here is an example:
GET http://<server>/api/quad/rest/search?q=tag

Thanks,
Adrienne

Thanks for the reply. I tried what you suggested but only get the following:   
{
   "feed":{
      "author":{
         "name":"http://quad.cisco.com"
      },
      "title":{
         "content":"http://quad.cisco.com OpenSearch",
         "type":"text"
      },
      "updated":"2013-01-28T18:22:36.699Z",
      "xmlns":"http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom"
   }

I can see from the documents you can do searches specifying specific tags such as q=tag:ruby but nothing for all tags used like /api/quad/rest/tags

Hi Matt,

If you want to retrieve all tags, you can use this:
GET http://<server>/api/quad/rest/search?q=tag
or
GET http://<server>/api/quad/rest/search?q=tag&filterBy=information&filterValue=post
This will return all posts with a tag. However, if the post has the word "tag" in the title or body, it will show up in the response. You can then run a query to filter out those results and only get values where you see "cisco:tags" in the response. I've tested this 3.1 and it works. What have you put tags on? If they are posts, make sure they are public or shared with the user you're testing with.
