Lens API - https://docs.lens.xyz/docs/explore-publications

This API return a array of publications based on the sort provided to the function. Since the Lens API randomizes the content, it is impossible to see the same content twice.

According to the Lens documentation, for now the API uses the basic explore logic but soon will be updated to use the advanced explore logic.

Parameters

Name	Type	values
sortCriteria	String	TOP_COMMENTED, TOP_COLLECTED, TOP_MIRRORED, LATEST
publicationTypes	Array	[POST, COMMENT, MIRROR]
limit	Integer	1-50

API Operation

Here is a example of how to use the explore publications API:

Lens.ExplorePublications(params).then((res) => {
  console.log(res);
});

Full code example

import React from 'react';
import { Lens } from '../../index';
export default function Publications() {
  const getPublications = () => {
    Lens.ExplorePublications('LATEST', ['POST', 'COMMENT', 'MIRROR'], 10)
      .then((res) => {
        console.log(res);
      })
