Which official API? And... the saved articles are not public. If you are referring to the new hn.algolia.com this is far (rate limit?) from being a data liberation initiative. Even Google and Facebook are much better.

With the Algolia API, you can request 1000 stories or 1000 comments per request. I don't think you'll hit the rate limit. :P

Here are your 1000 out of your 1248 comments: https://hn.algolia.com/api/v1/search_by_date?tags=comment,au...

And here are 1000 out of your 1548 submitted stories: https://hn.algolia.com/api/v1/search_by_date?tags=story,auth...

You can pagenate each endpoint on the created_at_i parameter to get the rest. I can write up a data liberation script if you want.

Thanks! I also need to web scrape HN to retrieve my saved articles. It will be useful to use users credentials with the API.
