Asks waiting in the blog inbox, oldest first.
GET https://cotlet.dev/api/v1/tumblr/asks
read
Lists asks in the inbox of one blog, oldest first. Each has the text, the sender name or anonymous: true, and the time received. An anonymous ask can only get a public answer. Tumblr may not deliver asks over 500 characters, so a long ask can be missing.
Parameters
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| blog string required | string | Blog name, e.g. 'studio-notes' for studio-notes.tumblr.com. Names come from list_blogs. |
| limit integer | integer | 1 to 20. Default: 20. |
| cursor string | string | Next page cursor from the previous call. |
