Sharepoint REST api get page contents and all likedbyinformation

Question

I'd like to have one call that gets all page content AND details for the page's likes (count and the users who liked). This call returns LikedByInformation but shows no likes (when there are likes for the page) and doesn't include any details. Seems like it's just getting info from the rating column which isn't used in modern pages.

/_api/web/lists/getbytitle('Site Pages')/items?$select=Title,FileRef,FirstPublishedDate,CanvasContent1,Videourl,BannerImageUrl,OData__AuthorByline/Title,likedByInformation&$expand=likedByInformation,LikedBy,OData__AuthorByline&$filter=ID eq '250'

This call does return the like details but not the page contents for obvious reasons:

/_api/web/lists/getbyTitle('Site Pages')/GetItemById(1)/likedByInformation?$expand=likedby&$select=likedby,Title,FileRef,FirstPublishedDate,CanvasContent1,Videourl,BannerImageUrl,OData__AuthorByline/Title

Including "LikedBy" in the $select option just returns an error that the property doesn't exist presumably because likes aren't a property in the site pages library.

Answer 1

Hi @matt howell ,

Per my test, I got the same result as yours on my end. We cannot get all those information in one call.

You need to send two different request calls to acheve this, one for page content, one for likedbyinformation.
