We shared this request example with FAB participants: url_qparams = { "limit": count, "offset": offset, "has_group": "false", "order_by": "-activity", "forecast_type": "binary", "project": tournament_id, "status": "open", "type": "forecast", "include_description": "true", } url = f"{api_info.base_url}/questions/" response = requests.get( url, headers={"Authorization": f"Token {api_info.token}"}, params=url_qparams )
But we don't want to support all these parameters, and the ones relevant are: - order_by - status - project - forecast_type - we ignore this, but assume it's binary - FAB only supports binary for now.

The age range of cases is 1 month to 16 years old. Seventeen of the children have undergone liver transplants and at least one has died. None of the viruses that cause acute viral hepatitis (hepatitis viruses A, B, C, D and E) have been detected in any of the 169 cases.\n\nThe United Kingdom has had the greatest number of reported cases so far, with 108 cases as of 21 April [according](https://www.gov.uk/government/news/increase-in-hepatitis-liver-inflammation-cases-in-children-under-investigation) to the UK Health Security Agency. 77% of cases have tested positive for [adenovirus](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adenoviridae). None of the confirmed cases is known to have received a COVID vaccine. \n\nIn the United States, the state of Alabama was the first to report cases. All nine of the reported cases have tested positive for adenovirus [according](https://emergency.cdc.gov/han/2022/han00462.asp) to the U.S. CDC. Five of these were sequenced, and adenovirus type 41 infection was identified in all five. Adenovirus type 41 is [known](https://www.mdpi.com/1999-4915/8/2/42/htm) to commonly cause pediatric acute gastroenteritis, but is not known to be a cause of hepatitis in otherwise healthy children.\n\nCurrently the [leading hypothesis](https://www.eurosurveillance.org/content/10.2807/1560-7917.ES.2022.27.15.2200318) for the causative agent involves adenovirus, with either an already-circulating variant severely impacting immunologically naive young children or there being a new variant with a more severe clinical profile. The former may be the result of less social mixing during the COVID pandemic. However, public health officials have [emphasized](https://www.statnews.com/2022/04/23/who-says-12-countries-have-reported-unusual-cases-of-hepatitis-in-kids/) that other hypotheses have not been ruled out. [Other hypotheses](https://www.science.org/content/article/mysterious-hepatitis-outbreak-sickens-young-children-europe-cdc-probes-cases-alabama) include COVID infection or an unidentified toxin." }, { "id": 10768, "title": "Will Russia lose control of the Kuril Islands before 2028?", "short_title": "Kuril Islands Lost by Russia by 2028", "url_title": "Kuril Islands Lost by Russia by 2028", "slug": "kuril-islands-lost-by-russia-by-2028", "author_id": 100345, "author_username": "EvanHarper", "coauthors": [], "created_at": "2022-04-21T22:29:34.345934Z", "published_at": "2022-04-27T15:00:00Z", "edited_at": "2025-11-19T22:45:53.915871Z", "curation_status": "approved", "curation_status_updated_at": "2022-04-27T15:00:00Z", "comment_count": 5, "status": "open", "resolved": false, "actual_close_time": null, "scheduled_close_time": "2027-12-31T13:59:00Z", "scheduled_resolve_time": "2028-02-01T14:00:00Z", "actual_resolve_time": null, "open_time": "2022-04-27T15:00:00Z", "nr_forecasters": 80, "html_metadata_json": null, "projects": { "site_main": [ { "id": 144, "type": "site_main", "name": "Metaculus Community", "slug": null, "header_image": null, "prize_pool": null, "start_date": null, "close_date": null, "forecasting_end_date": null, "html_metadata_json": null, "is_ongoing": null, "user_permission": "forecaster", "created_at": "2023-11-08T16:55:29.484707Z", "edited_at": "2025-07-18T17:28:18.838588Z", "score_type": null, "default_permission": "forecaster", "visibility": "normal", "is_current_content_translated": false, "bot_leaderboard_status": "exclude_and_show" } ], "default_project": { "id": 144, "type": "site_main", "name": "Metaculus Community", "slug": null, "header_image": null, "prize_pool": null, "start_date": null, "close_date": null, "forecasting_end_date": null, "html_metadata_json": null, "is_ongoing": null, "user_permission": "forecaster", "created_at": "2023-11-08T16:55:29.484707Z", "edited_at": "2025-07-18T17:28:18.838588Z", "score_type": null, "default_permission": "forecaster", "visibility": "normal", "is_current_content_translated": false, "bot_leaderboard_status": "exclude_and_show" }, "category": [ { "id": 3687, "name": "Geopolitics", "slug": "geopolitics", "emoji": "🌍", "description": "Geopolitics", "type": "category" } ] }, "question": { "id": 10768, "title": "Will Russia lose control of the Kuril Islands before 2028?", "created_at": "2022-04-21T22:29:34.345934Z", "open_time": "2022-04-27T15:00:00Z", "cp_reveal_time": "2022-04-27T21:39:49.414671Z", "spot_scoring_time": "2022-04-27T21:39:49.414671Z", "scheduled_resolve_time": "2028-02-01T14:00:00Z", "actual_resolve_time": null, "resolution_set_time": null, "scheduled_close_time": "2027-12-31T13:59:00Z", "actual_close_time": "2027-12-31T13:59:00Z", "type": "binary", "options": null, "group_variable": "", "status": "open", "possibilities": { "type": "binary" }, "resolution": null, "include_bots_in_aggregates": false, "question_weight": 1.0, "default_score_type": "peer", "default_aggregation_method": "recency_weighted", "label": "", "unit": "", "open_upper_bound": null, "open_lower_bound": null, "inbound_outcome_count": null, "scaling": { "range_min": null, "range_max": null, "nominal_min": null, "nominal_max": null, "zero_point": null, "open_upper_bound": null, "open_lower_bound": null, "inbound_outcome_count": null, "continuous_range": null }, "group_rank": null, "description": "The [Kuril Islands Dispute](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kuril_Islands_dispute) is a territorial conflict between Japan and Russia which extends back to 1855.
