Fetch Comments using Admin API

pavelmarin · March 12, 2025, 10:53pm

Hello, I’ve checked Ghost’s documentation about Admin API, and I am currently trying to fetch the comments from a post. I’ve seen that when i fetch a post i get a comment_id. Does anyone know if there are any endpoints that can help me to fetch the comments?

Thanks,
Pavel

I don’t know if the comments endpoints are stable, but your best bet is to watch the network calls from the comments UI. You can see the comments integration with the Admin API here:

github.com/TryGhost/Ghost

apps/comments-ui/src/utils/adminApi.ts

main

export function setupAdminAPI({adminUrl}: {adminUrl: string}) {
    const frame = document.querySelector('iframe[data-frame="admin-auth"]') as HTMLIFrameElement;
    let uid = 1;
    const handlers: Record<string, (error: Error|undefined, result: any) => void> = {};
    const adminOrigin = new URL(adminUrl).origin;

    let firstCommentCreatedAt: null | string = null;

    window.addEventListener('message', function (event) {
        if (event.origin !== adminOrigin) {
            // Other message that is not intended for us
            return;
        }

        let data = null;
        try {
            data = JSON.parse(event.data);
        } catch (err) {
            return;
        }
