Google+ API - issue getting posts on business page

Question

So I am using java API to get public posts from a google+ business page.

` String businessPageId = "104451189002914239318"; `
`List<Activity> activities = plus.activities().list(businessPageId, "public").execute().getItems();  // no activities returned `

Even though there are public posts, the above call does not return any posts.

I did discover that , getting the Person for that page as

`String personId = plus.people().get(businessPageId).execute().getId();`

and using personId instead of businessPageId gets the posts.

What does the above call represent.? is it the page owner.?

Can anyone shed light what's going on here.?

Answer 1

It's two pages that have been merged together. If you visit https://plus.google.com/104451189002914239318 you will see it redirect to https://plus.google.com/108277438040092360159 . Use the second ID and you should be all set.
