Comments - Docs
The comments endpoint provides a dataset of sample user comments, including details like usernames, post IDs, and comment texts, ideal for testing and prototyping social interactions and feedback features in web applications.
By default you will get 30 items, use Limit and skip to paginate through all items.
fetch('https://dummyjson.com/comments')
.then(res => res.json())
.then(console.log);
{
"comments": [
{
"id": 1,
"body": "This is some awesome thinking!",
"postId": 242,
"likes": 3,
"user": {
"id": 105,
"username": "emmac",
"fullName": "Emma Wilson"
}
},
{
"id": 2,
"body": "What terrific math skills you're showing!",
"postId": 46,
"likes": 4,
"user": {
"id": 183,
"username": "cameronp",
"fullName": "Cameron Perez"
}
},
{...},
{...}
// 30 items
],
"total": 340,
"skip": 0,
"limit": 30
}
fetch('https://dummyjson.com/comments/1')
.then(res => res.json())
.then(console.log);
{
"id": 1,
"body": "This is some awesome thinking!",
"postId": 242,
"likes": 3,
"user": {

}
}
You can pass `limit` and `skip` params to limit and skip the results for pagination, and use `limit=0` to get all items.
You can pass `select` as query params with comma-separated values to select specific data
fetch('https://dummyjson.com/comments?limit=10&skip=10&select=body,postId')
.then(res => res.json())
.then(console.log);
{
"comments": [
{
"id": 11,
"body": "It was a pleasure to grade this!",
"postId": 156,
"likes": 8,
"user": {
"id": 162,
"username": "mateob",
"fullName": "Mateo Bennett"
}
},
{...},
{...},
{...}
// 10 items
],
"total": 340,
"skip": 10,
"limit": 10
}
fetch('https://dummyjson.com/comments/post/6')
.then(res => res.json())
.then(console.log);
{
"comments": [
{
"id": 15,
"body": "You've shown so much growth!",
"postId": 6, // post id is 6
"likes": 2,
"user": {
"id": 17,

}
}
],
"total": 1,

"limit": 1

Adding a new comment will not add it into the server.
It will simulate a POST request and will return the new created comment with a new id
fetch('https://dummyjson.com/comments/add', {
method: 'POST',
headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' },
body: JSON.stringify({
body: 'This makes all sense to me!',
postId: 3,
userId: 5,
})
})
.then(res => res.json())
.then(console.log);
{
"id": 341,
"body": "This makes all sense to me!",
"postId": 3,
"user": {
"id": 5,
"username": "emmaj",
fullName: "Emma Miller"
}
}
Updating a comment will not update it into the server.
It will simulate a PUT/PATCH request and will return updated comment with modified data
/* updating body of comment with id 1 */
fetch('https://dummyjson.com/comments/1', {
method: 'PUT', /* or PATCH */
headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' },
body: JSON.stringify({
body: 'I think I should shift to the moon',
})
})
.then(res => res.json())
.then(console.log);
{
"id": 1,
"body": "I think I should shift to the moon", // only body was updated
"postId": 242,
"likes": 3,
"user": {
"id": 105,
"username": "emmac",
"fullName": "Emma Wilson"
}
}
Deleting a comment will not delete it into the server.
It will simulate a DELETE request and will return deleted comment with `isDeleted` & `deletedOn` keys
fetch('https://dummyjson.com/comments/1', {
method: 'DELETE',
})
.then(res => res.json())
.then(console.log);
{
"id": 1,
"body": "This is some awesome thinking!",
"postId": 242,
"likes": 3,
"user": {
"id": 105,
"username": "emmac",
"fullName": "Emma Wilson"
},
"isDeleted": true,
"deletedOn": /* ISOTime */
}
