Hey! I've been following your tutorials! Great content... thank you so much for helping devleopers gets aquanited with the steem-js API

I have a quick question about steem-js:

Does anyone know how to obtain the tags used by a spcefic account? I noticed with the API call for 'getAccounts' there is an array called 'tags_usage'; however, for every account I look at the array is empty... 'tags_usage: []'.

There are a lot of fields like that. They were used at one point, but are deprecated now and no longer contain the data you need. I recommend using account history. https://utopian.io/utopian-io/@r351574nc3/tutorial-viewing-steemit-account-history

You will want to

  1. iterate through the history for commentoperation.
  2. look for json_metadata for each comment
  3. Pull tags from json_metadata. Here's an example of json_metadata.
operations: [
    [ "comment",
        {
            "json_metadata": "{ \"tags\": [ \"blog\" ], \"app\": \"steemit/1.0\" }"
        }
    ]
]

Hope that helps.

Wow, thank you so much! I will be doing some coding tonight and will let you know how it goes!
