How to Comment on a Post
Comments let you reply to posts and join conversations. You can add a new comment or reply to someone else’s comment.
In the app (UI)
- Open a post in your feed or on a profile.
- Scroll to the comments section (e.g. “Comment” or a comment icon under the post).
- Add a comment:
- Type your text in the comment box.
- Optionally mention someone with @username or add emoji.
- Click Send or Comment.
- Reply to a comment: Click Reply on an existing comment, type your reply, then send. Replies appear nested under that comment.
You can usually edit or delete your own comments via the “…” menu on the comment.
Via the API
Add a top-level comment:
POST /api/Comment
Authorization: Bearer {token}
Content-Type: application/json
{
"postId": "post-guid",
"content": "This is a great post!",
"parentCommentId": null
}
Reply to a comment:
POST /api/Comment
Authorization: Bearer {token}
Content-Type: application/json
{
"postId": "post-guid",
"content": "I agree!",
"parentCommentId": "comment-id-here"
}
List comments for a post:
GET /api/Comment/{postId}/comments?page=1&limit=20
