Parameters
| Name | In | Required | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| older_than | query | integer | Returns messages older than the message ID specified as a numeric string. This is useful for paginating messages. For example, if you’re currently viewing 20 messages and the oldest is number 2912, you could append “?older_than=2912″ to your request to get the 20 messages prior to those you’re seeing. | |
| newer_than | query | integer | Returns messages newer than the message ID specified as a numeric string. This should be used when polling for new messages. If you’re looking at messages, and the most recent message returned is 3516, you can make a request with the parameter “?newer_than=3516″ to ensure that you do not get duplicate copies of messages already on your page. | |
| threaded | query | boolean | threaded=true will only return the thread starter (first message) for each thread. This parameter is intended for apps which need to display message threads collapsed. threaded=extended will return the thread starter messages and the two most recent messages all ordered by activity, as they are viewed in the default view on the Yammer web interface. | |
| limit | query | integer | Return only the specified number of messages. Works for threaded=true and threaded=extended. |
