Parameters Blogspot Feed

This post presented for me to understanding the "Query Parameters in Blogspot Feed". As we know, the URL to get feed items of our blog is http://yourblogname.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/default. You can review this feed after as my blog feed : http://xee-styx.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/default or you can use your own blog to experiment.

There are two options how to using your blogger's feed
Using your blogger's address : http://yourblogname.blogspot.com/feed/post/default
Using your blogid : http://www.blogger.com/feeds/blogID/posts/default
The Blogger Data API supports the following query parameter:

alt
Meaning - Alternative representation type
We can use one of the folowing values :
If wedon't specify an alt parameter, the service returns an Atom feed. This is equivalent to alt=atom
alt=rss returns an RSS 2.0 result feed (for reads only)
alt=json returns a JSON representation of the feed
alt=json-in-script Requests a response that wraps JSON in a script tag
alt=atom-in-script Requests an Atom response that wraps an XML string in a script tag.
alt=rss-in-script Requests an RSS response that wraps an XML string in a script tag.
alt=atom-service Requests an Atom service document that describes the feed.
For example :
http://xee-styx.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/default?alt=json or
http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1862344473010958336/posts/default?alt=json
This will returns type of feed as a JSON.

/category
Meaning - Category query filter
Specifies categories (also known as labels) to filter the feed results.
For example,
http://xee-styx.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/default/-/blogging or
http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1862344473010958336/posts/default/-/blogging
This will returns entries with the label or category of blogging.

max-results
Meaning - The Maximum number of results to be retrieved
http://xee-styx.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/default?max-results=2 or
http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1862344473010958336/posts/default?max-results=2
This will returns entries with 2 results.

orderby
Meaning - The order in which to return entries, such as lastmodified (the default), starttime, or updated.
http://xee-styx.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/default?orderby=updated or
http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1862344473010958336/posts/default?orderby=updated
I do not know how to using lastmodified and starttime!

published-min, published-max
Meaning - The bounds on entry publication dates
http://xee-styx.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/default?published-min=2010-11-01T00:00:00&published-max=2011-11-30T23:59:59&orderby=updated or
http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1862344473010958336/posts/default?published-min=2010-11-01T00:00:00&published-max=2011-11-30T23:59:59&orderby=updated

start-index
Meaning - The 1-based index of the first result to be retrieved
http://xee-styx.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/default?start-index=1 or
http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1862344473010958336/posts/default?start-index=1
Test by yourself, you can change number on start-index=1

updated-min, updated-max
Meaning - The bounds on entry update dates.
These query parameters are ignored unless the orderby parameter is set to updated
http://xee-styx.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/default?updated-min=2010-11-01T00:00:00&updated-max=2011-11-30T23:59:59&orderby=updated or
