How to retrieve only published posts or post titles via XML-RPC

  • The XML-RPC API provides several ways to retrieve posts or post titles (blogger.getRecentPosts, metaWeblog.getRecentPosts, mt.getRecentPostTitles), but results contain all posts, including those not published.

    Is there a way to retrieve only published posts/ post titles. If not, how can I determine the status (published, pending review, draft) of a post?

    Post status can be retrieved using metaWeblog.getRecentPosts as it also contains the attribute post_status. However, this is still inconvenient as a larger list of posts needed to be retrieved and the status checked before displaying published posts.

    I would prefer to apply a filter to the request, and retrieve only published posts via API. Is there a way to apply a filter to the API?

    Currently there are no filter options on metaWeblog.getRecentPosts that would allow you to limit the results in that way.
