Is the any API for me to access the content of my blog?
-
Hello, I wanna make an application so I can get the content from my any blog in WordPress. Is there a way for me to do it?
I couldn’t find any API yet.In my application, I wanna log in with my username and password and then retrieve blog’s texts and photos…
Thanks…
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Even without username and password. How does Google Reader grabs the content from a wordpress blog? The RSS feeed only contains the last posts… how do I dive down in the older posts?
-
The blog referenced with your name only has one new Post and the default Hello World – so if you are referring to that blog all is normal – are you having trouble with another blog? If so we need the URL beginning with http to the other blog.
Are you trying to display your content on another site or are you wanting to display the content from other blogs on your WordPress.COM blog?

No, I am a DEVELOPER… I wanna have access to the content of ANY blog via some API so I can develop my application getting the content from any WordPress.com blog… is there a way for me to do it?
It will be like Google Reader… if I put the blogname in Google Reader, Google grabs the content of the blog so we can read it via Google Reader… I wanna make a kind of Google Reader… but I need some API or some way to dive down in the older posts beyond the last 10 items that the RSS feed gives to me.
Thank you again

The wordpress.com apps entries are found here > http://en.support.wordpress.com/apps/
If you wish to export content out of your blog see here > http://en.support.wordpress.com/export/
The API key support documentation for those who have wordpress.ORG installs and/or wordpress stats plugins are found here > http://en.support.wordpress.com/api-keys/
If what you are trying to achieve is to fill a free hosted wordpress.com blog with content from other sources automatically then that’s a no go here at wordpress.com. We can only use RSS feed fin our sidebars and that’s it. They cannot be used to fill posts or pages with content from other sites.

Also note that the RSS feed URL for your blog entries (posts) is:
http://teste3rcorp.wordpress.com/feed/
And the RSS feed URL for your blog comments is:
http://teste3rcorp.wordpress.com/comments/feed/I hope this answers your questions but if it doesn’t then please post again.

hey, thank you for the answer, but I do not have any problem with my blog itself. I wanna make a KIND OF GOOGLE READER, OR “BLOGTOBOOK”… I need to READ the information inside ANY blog in WordPress. Nothing to do with teste3rcorp. Is there any way for me to do that? I DO NOT want to export my content…

The XML-RPC API allows posting to blogs, but you would have to have the username and password for that blog, otherwise there are serious privacy and security issues.
Also, accessing and pulling information from other blogs (without the user’s permission) is a copyright violation. If that is what you are looking to do, why would wordpress allow that? Why would any blogger allow that? That would get wordpress in serious hot water.
Even if you are not going to do that, it would open things up so that others with less honorable intentions could just steal the contents from an entire blog. I’ve fought this a lot in the past (content theft) and have had many sites shut down for it.
RSS is the only thing that does not require a username and password.

Thanks for the clarification. TSP has replied to you above – WordPress.COM does not provide splogging tools.
