Need Way To Get Multiple Media Objects on Content

[volomike]

I wanted to list out images from the CMS without knowing their names head of time. I needed to collect them together somehow, and then use an API to list out that collection.

I attempted:

Attempt 1: I created an entry like a folder and then put one single default content in there with an attached media object. I was unable to use /api/files, /api/folders, /api/entries, or /api/images to get the list of images for a given piece of content.

Attempt 2: I created a single entry and then, off itself, I created multiple media objects. Again, I was unable to use the API to get a wildcard of the images.

Reading the source code, I found the solution, and think that you have an error in the docs under Fetch Files Collection.

GET /api/files?path=entries/gallery&token={YOUR_FILES_TOKEN}

I believe that it's not id that it wants as a parameter, but path.

yes, seems it is a mistake in the documentation. path should be instead of id
