Table of Contents

1. Introduction

The Activity Streams 2.0 Core Syntax defines the JSON syntax for Activity Streams. This document defines the vocabulary properties.

The Activity Streams 2.0 Vocabulary defines a set of abstract classes and properties that describe past, present and future Activities. The vocabulary is defined in two parts:

  1. A Core set of properties describing the generalized structure of an Activity; and
  2. An Extended set of properties that cover specific types of Activities and Artifacts common to many "Social" Web application systems.

While not all Activity Streams 2.0 implementations are expected to implement support for the Extended properties, all implementations MUST at least be capable of serializing and deserializing the Extended properties in accordance with the Activity Streams 2.0 Core Syntax.

The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in [RFC2119].

1.1 Value Conventions

This specification uses IRIs [RFC3987]. Every URI [RFC3986] is also an IRI, so a URI may be used wherever an IRI is named. There are two special considerations: (1) when an IRI that is not also a URI is given for dereferencing, it MUST be mapped to a URI using the steps in Section 3.1 of [RFC3987] and (2) when an IRI is serving as an "id" value, it MUST NOT be so mapped.

Unless otherwise specified, all properties defined as xsd:dateTime values MUST conform to the "date-time" production in [RFC3339], with an uppercase "T" character used to separate date and time, and an uppercase "Z" character in the absence of a numeric time zone offset. All such timestamps SHOULD be represented relative to Coordinated Universal Time (UTC).

2. Core Classes

The Activity Vocabulary Core Classes provide the basis for the rest of the vocabulary.

Base URI: http://www.w3.org/ns/activitystreams#.

The Activity Streams 2.0 Core Classes include: Object | Link | Activity | IntransitiveActivity | Actor | Collection | OrderedCollection

Class Description Example
Object URI: http://www.w3.org/ns/activitystreams#Object
Example 1
{
  "@context": "http://www.w3.org/ns/activitystreams",
  "@type": "Object",
  "@id": "urn:example:object:1",
  "displayName": "A Simple, non-specific object"
}
Notes: Describes an object of any kind. The Object class serves as the base class for most of the other kinds of objects defined in the Activity Vocabulary, include other Core classes such as Activity, IntransitiveActivity, Actor, Collection and OrderedCollection.
Disjoint With: Link
Properties:

alias | attachedTo | attachment | attributedTo | attributedWith | content | context | contextOf | displayName | endTime | generator | generatorOf | icon | image | inReplyTo | memberOf | location | locationOf | objectOf | originOf | preview | previewOf | provider | providerOf | published | rating | resultOf | replies | scope | scopeOf | startTime | summary | tag | tagOf | targetOf | title | updated | url

Link URI: http://www.w3.org/ns/activitystreams#Link
Example 6
{
  "@context": "http://www.w3.org/ns/activitystreams",
  "@type": "Link",
  "href": "http://example.org/abc",
  "hreflang": "en",
  "mediaType": "text/html",
  "displayName": "An example link"
}
Notes: A Link is an indirect, qualified reference to a resource identified by a URL. The fundamental model for links is established by [RFC5988]. Many of the properties defined by the Activity Vocabulary allow values that are either instances of Object or Link. When a Link is used, it establishes a qualified relation connecting the subject (the containing object) to the resource identified by the href.
Disjoint With: Object
Properties:

href | rel | mediaType | displayName | title | hreflang | height | width | duration

Links MAY also have the following "inverse properties": actorOf | attachedTo | attributedWith | contextOf | generatorOf | iconFor | imageOf | locationOf | memberOf | objectOf | originOf | previewOf | providerOf | resultOf | scopeOf | tagOf | targetOf

Activity URI: http://www.w3.org/ns/activitystreams#Activity
Example 11
{
  "@context": "http://www.w3.org/ns/activitystreams",
  "@type": "Activity",
  "actor": {
    "@type": "Person",
    "displayName": "Sally"
  },
  "object": {
    "@type": "Note",
    "displayName": "A Note"
  }
}
Notes: An Activity is a subclass of Object that describes some form of action that may happen, is currently happening, or that has already happened. The Activity class itself serves as an abstract base class for all types of activities. It is important to note that the Activity class itself does not carry any specific semantics about the kind of action being taken.
Extends: Object
Properties:

actor | object | target | result | origin | priority | to | bto | cc | bcc

Inherits all properties from Object.

IntransitiveActivity URI: http://www.w3.org/ns/activitystreams#IntransitiveActivity
Example 16
{
  "@context": "http://www.w3.org/ns/activitystreams",
  "@type": "Travel",
  "actor": {
    "@type": "Person",
    "displayName": "Sally"
  },
  "target": {
    "@type": "Place",
    "displayName": "Work"
  }
}
Notes: Instances of IntransitiveActivity are a subclass of Activity whose actor property identifies the direct object of the action as opposed to using the object property.
Extends: Activity
Properties:

Actor URI: http://www.w3.org/ns/activitystreams#Actor
Example 21
{
  "@context": "http://www.w3.org/ns/activitystreams",
  "@type": "Actor",
  "displayName": "Sally"
}
Notes: An Actor is any entity that is capable of being the primary actor for an Activity. Actor is a subclass of Object that serves as an base class for all types of actors.
Extends: Object
Properties:

actorOf

Inherits all properties from Object.

Collection URI: http://www.w3.org/ns/activitystreams#Collection
Example 26
{
  "@context": "http://www.w3.org/ns/activitystreams",
  "@type": "Collection",
  "totalItems": 2,
  "itemsPerPage": 2,
  "items": [
    {
      "@type": "Note",
      "displayName": "A Simple Note"
    },
    {
      "@type": "Note",
      "displayName": "Another Simple Note"
    }
  ]
}
Notes:

A Collection is a subclass of Object that represents ordered or unordered sets of Object or Link instances. The model for collections within the Activity Vocabulary is designed largely around the abstract model of "logical feeds" and "pages" discussed in [RFC5005], Section 1.2.

Specifically, a "logical collection" is a complete set of Object or Link instances while an individual Collection object may contain only a specific subset of those members. Paging properties such as next, prev, first, and last are used to connect multiple Collection objects containing different subsets of member items of a single logical collection together.

When multiple, separate Collection instances share the same identity (represented in the JSON-LD serialization using the @id property) and each specifies distinct, non-overlapping subsets of member items (using the items property), the membership of the logical collection is the intersection of each of the subsets. However, when there is overlap in the items contained by multiple Collection instances (e.g. when Object or Link intances with the same identity appear in more than one Collection), member instances with the most recently updated timestamps -- as determined by examining first the updated and then published properties -- MUST be considered to be the most current representations. If those members do not have either an updated or published property specified, then the containing Collection object's updated and published properties are used. If no timestamps are available to use for comparison, implementations MAY use other means to determine the precedence of member instance representations.

When the members of a Collection are ordered, the ordering imposed applies only to the subset of members contained within that one specific Collection instance.

Extends: Object
Properties:

totalItems | itemsPerPage | current | next | prev | first | last | self | items

Inherits all properties from Object.

OrderedCollection URI: http://www.w3.org/ns/activitystreams#OrderedCollection
Example 31
{
  "@context": "http://www.w3.org/ns/activitystreams",
  "@type": "OrderedCollection",
  "totalItems": 2,
  "itemsPerPage": 2,
  "startIndex": 0,
  "orderedItems": [
    {
      "@type": "Note",
      "displayName": "A Simple Note"
    },
    {
      "@type": "Note",
      "displayName": "Another Simple Note"
    }
  ]
}
Notes:

A subclass of Collection in which members of the logical collection are assumed to always be strictly ordered.

Using paging with an OrderedCollection can be tricky because there is no guarantee that implementations will process the distinct pages in any predictable order. Therefore, it is strongly recommended that OrderedCollection instances that require paging always include the first, next, prev and last paging properties. Implementations that wish to reconstruct the appropriate complete ordering of member instances in the logical collection would navigate to the OrderedCollection instance identified by the first (or last) link, then recursively follow the next (or prev) link until all pages have been processed.

Extends: Collection
Properties:

startIndex

Inherits all properties from Collection.

3. Extended Classes

Base URI: http://www.w3.org/ns/activitystreams#.

The Activity Streams 2.0 Extended Classes include Activity and Object subclasses that are common to many "Social" Web applications. They are divided into two sets:

Support for specific extended vocabulary classes is expected to vary, with implementations only selecting the extended classes and properties that make sense within the specific context and requirements of those applications. However, to avoid possible interoperability issues, implementations MUST avoid using extension classes or properties that unduly overlap with or duplicate the extended vocabulary defined here.

3.1 Activity Types

All Activity Types inherit the properties of the base Activity class. Some specific Activity Types are subclasses or specializations of more generalized Activity Types (for instance, the FriendRequest Activity Type is a more specific form of the Connect Activity Type).

The Activity Types include: Accept | Achieve | Add | Announce | Arrive | Assign | Block | Claim | Complete | Confirm | Connect | Create | Delete | Dislike | Experience | Favorite | Flag | Follow | FriendRequest | Give | Ignore | Invite | Join | Leave | Like | Listen | Move | Offer | Post | Question | Reject | Read | Remove | Reservation | Respond | Review | Save | Share | TentativeReject | TentativeAccept | Travel | Undo | Update | View | Watch

    }
  }

The "Domain" indicates the type of Object the property term applies to. The "Range" indicates the type of value the property term can have. Certain properties are marked as a "Subproperty Of" another term, meaning that the term is a specialization of the referenced term. For instance, actor is a subproperty of attributedTo. Properties marked as being "Functional" can have only one value. Items not marked as "Functional" can have multiple values.
