Hi,

I'm trying to use a StatusNet instance as part of a project I'm
starting up. One of the things I'd like to do is to link into the
thread, rather than just to the individual message, and I was
wondering whether it's possible to make an API call to get the
conversation ID?

I don't think it's 100% in all proper APIs yet, but there's a couple things you can grab:


In current 0.9.x, you can pull the notice as an Atom entry via api/statuses/show:

http://example.com/api/statuses/show/1046.atom

Pull out the <link rel="ostatus:conversation">; it'll list the link to the conversation page (which includes the ID number if you wish to extract from there).



On already deployed sites, you can't yet get the individual Atom entry lookups and the convo ID isn't in the Twitter-style XML and JSON info yet. :( But -- you could load up its HTML page and pull from there:

http://example.com/notice/1046

Pull out the link with class="response" and it'll be the link to the conversation (plus a hash fragment on the end).
