Paste the article URL. The task returns the title and full body as Markdown, with Medium’s popups and recommended-reading sections removed.
Not really. Medium’s official API was built for publishing posts, not reading them, and it is no longer maintained. Scraping public pages is the practical alternative.
No. Only content shown without logging in is returned. For member-only stories, that is usually the opening paragraphs.
Fetch the profile or publication page with the links format to collect article URLs, then run the task on each one. Medium’s RSS feed (medium.com/feed/@username) is another quick way to list recent posts.
Yes. Publications on their own domain are regular web pages, so any public article URL works.
