Is there a way to find all Disqus comments for a specific search term through their API
I've been doing research for the past few hours and I still don't know if there is a way to search through Disqus comments on any website for generic terms through their api. How to search twitter hashtags. On the public api data page where you can post a Post, I don't see any mention of the API lookup specifics in Disqus. I would use PHP if that helps.

You can use most of the message list endpoints in the Disqus API. See the request parameter here: https://disqus.com/api/docs/posts/list/
However, in a request, you are limited to one or two words because the endpoint is traditionally prone to timeout. The search is also not very difficult, so you may not get as many results as you want, but it might work for your purposes.

The Disqus API does not have this feature. You can find a specific search term, but only if you specify a forum or thread to search for. There is no global term search on any forum or thread.
For example:
http://disqus.com/api/3.0/posts/lists.json?api_key='.urlencode($key).'&query='.$query;
where $query
will be your search term, it will return error 400 400 error. Error message:
Required argument missing: 'forum' or 'thread'.
So when you include an argument call in your API query
, you must include the forum or thread as well.
