I was looking for a way to grab the list of "featured" questions via the API, and I stumbled across several answers that all point to the same solution:
Shouldn't there be a separate call for featured questions?
The solution seems to be "call the questions endpoint, with sort=featured"
This doesn't appear to be supported by API 2.0, however:
https://api.stackexchange.com/2.0/questions?order=asc&sort=featured&site=stackoverflow
{"error_id":400,"error_name":"bad_parameter","error_message":"sort"}
Has this been removed, or superseded by some other API call? (Or am I just doing something wrong?)
