NNS Governance API Adds Multi-Topic Follow Feature

Developers and neuron holders using the NNS Governance API can now follow multiple topics with a single SetFollowing call. The update removes the need for individual follow requests per topic, aiming to streamline the way users manage their neurons and voting preferences.

The change brings the NNS experience closer to how SNS governance works, reducing complexity for those interacting directly with the Internet Computer’s decentralised governance system. For users who follow proposals on multiple fronts—such as exchange rate, node management or network economics—this tweak could help reduce errors and cut down on unnecessary API calls.

The move reflects an ongoing effort by the Internet Computer ecosystem to improve tooling for governance participants, particularly those automating interactions or managing large sets of neurons. Developers working with dApps that integrate voting logic will now be able to batch-follow topics more efficiently, saving time and bandwidth.

Although it may seem like a minor update, this kind of change matters for those regularly participating in decentralised decision-making. It could also help encourage more active engagement in governance, as streamlined tooling tends to reduce friction and lower the barrier to participation.

The new functionality is available now through the latest version of the NNS Governance API.
