The trending content API returns a ranked list of popular content over the last 24h which has increased in popularity the most, and is relevant to the target users interests

- You have you API
apikey. Contact us to find out how to get access.- To personalise responses it is vital to capture an end user identifier as part of behaviour capture. Without such user ids, the api will be able to surface popular content across your whole user-base, but will not be able to return personalised, relevant, content.
