Stack Exchange API : get post list from user

Question

I'm currently playing with the Stack Exchange API. My goal is to display a list of 5 last posts from a specific user.

I thought it would be easy, but well, I can't make it work...

Here's my try (client side, no auth) :

var apiURL = 'https://api.stackexchange.com/2.2/posts?order=desc&owner=enguerranws&site=stackoverflow';
    get(apiURL, getCB);

Where get() is is basic GET request and getCB a simple callback that should log the response.

This doesn't work, I get the last posts on SO from all users...

I looked into the API docs for couple of hours now, but I still don't know if it's possible and how to achieve it.

You can use `users/{ids}/posts` or `/me/posts` – Cyrbil Nov 13 '15 at 09:14 — Cyrbil, Nov 13 '15 at 09:14

You need to specify the user in the URL, not in the parameters:

Well, thank you sir. Where can I find this point in the API doc ? – enguerranws Nov 13 '15 at 11:02
I know how to get the body of the post (with filter=withbody), but can I also get the title? – Timo Jan 17 '21 at 11:48
@enguerranws look [here](https://api.stackexchange.com/docs/posts-on-users) for the api on users and posts. – Timo Jan 17 '21 at 11:51
@Timo You should ask this as a question, but it's in the documentation you linked. Hint: You need to create a filter. – Gerald Schneider Jan 19 '21 at 07:00
