I read the documentation and I know that I can get users' locations but I have not seen anywhere about querying by location. Does that mean that it is not possible? If it is possible, how?

As an example, I want to do something like below:

https://api.stackexchange.com/2.2/users/location=Lanka?order=desc&sort=reputation&site=stackoverflow

The above currently results in a 404 error. Please add this capability.

It's not possible (short of fetching all users and filtering yourself). The API simply does not offer that query. For alternatives, see the Data Explorer (SEDE): https://meta.stackexchange.com/q/253728/295232

  • Yeah Im using that already and I tried to create simple app using this api to see/search top 100 users by country name instead of downloading csv and getting data from it. Thank you for saving my time! Commented Nov 24, 2018 at 11:53
