> **For coding agents and LLMs:** This is one Social Fetch marketing page (markdown export). For API orientation start with [`/llms.txt`](https://www.socialfetch.dev/llms.txt); for auth and crawl rules use [`/agents.txt`](https://www.socialfetch.dev/agents.txt); for every operation use [`/llms-endpoints.txt`](https://www.socialfetch.dev/llms-endpoints.txt). ## This page - **On-site (HTML):** - **Markdown (.mdx) URL:** --- # Lemmy User Posts API One user's posts by time or a time-window top, with the profile reference attached. `GET /v1/lemmy/user/posts?instance=lemmy.ml&username=dessalines&sort=New` returns `data.user` as a profile reference, `data.posts` as post rows and `data.page` as the paging state. Each post carries its community, author, score, votes, comment count and timestamps. Ask by `username`, local or `user@host`. This route returns the user's posts only; use the user comments route for their comments. Sort options are `New`, `Old` and the time-window tops. The instance does not return a total, so a full page means there may be more. ## Request - **Endpoint:** `GET /v1/lemmy/user/posts` - **Credits:** 1 credit Failed requests are free - **Input:** by username and sort - **Full reference:** [docs](https://www.socialfetch.dev/docs/api/v1/lemmy/user/posts/get) - **Platform page:** [/platforms/lemmy](https://www.socialfetch.dev/platforms/lemmy) ## FAQ ### Which sorts are available? New, Old and the Top windows from hour through year. ### Does this include the comments? No. This route returns only the user's posts. Use the user comments route for their comments. ### How do I page through a user's posts? Follow page.nextCursor with the same username and sort while page.hasMore is true. The cursor is tied to those filters. ### How many credits does a user posts page cost? Pricing is documented on the operation in the API registry (shown on this page). Confirm on every response with meta.creditsCharged: that field is the billing source of truth. Each paginated page is a separate billed request.
