Hi @gregslazinski,

Thank you for being here! Per @devonzuegel:

" We’re currently building an Activity Timeline that shows a bunch of different types of events, including transactions. We’re also planning to build a transaction CSV download that you can export to do this sort of analysis on. We’re projecting that both of these will be out in the next month or two. 😊

In the meantime, you could look at (a) what tier a sponsor was on and (b) look up when you received the celebration email saying that they’ve started sponsor you as a fairly good approximation of how much they’ve sponsored you in total."

I hope this helps!

My post got removed? How would you write GraphQL to see if a particular user has sponsored you? I don’t want to paginate through all the sponsors, specially when the rateLimit is 5000 requests per hour!?

+1 for a REST API endpoint where we can check if a user sponsors the authenticated user, an at what tier. This would enable us to do a lot more!

Is there any progress on this?

@devonzuegel it seems that the API returns null when trying to query for the tiers eg.

{
  viewer {
    sponsorshipsAsSponsor(first: 10) {
      nodes {
        tier {
          name
          description
          id
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

Another dev reported the same issue on StackOverflow https://stackoverflow.com/questions/60281942/github-graphql-getting-sponsor-tier-information-for-the-sponsors-of-a-user

I’d appreciate if you could help us figure this out :slight_smile: Thank you in advance for your time!

So, as of to date, it is still impossible to determine which users have sponsored me via api?

Also interested in having the ability to access this information in a cleaner more reliable way than web scraping!

I was also confused that the sponorship tier always seemed to be null no matter what permissions I requested, however it does seem to work if a “personal access token” is used as authorization for GraphQL. I’m not sure why it doesn’t work with the regular OAuth token that gets generated, though.

Can we please have a way to distinguish private vs. public sponsors through the GraphQL API? I’m trying to automate listing of sponsors on our webpage but the API gives me all sponsors, not just public ones, meaning I need to double check this every time I run the script. 😦
