What you get

One row per post:

Field	Meaning
`publication`, `post_id`, `slug`, `url`	Identity and link
`title`, `subtitle`, `description`, `cover_image`	Headline material
`type`	newsletter, podcast, thread
`post_date`, `author`	Published time (ISO) and bylines
`likes`, `comments`, `restacks`	Engagement
`paywalled`, `audience`	`only_paid` means subscribers only
`word_count`	Length
`body_html`, `body_text`	Full body when Include full post body is on (free preview only for paywalled posts)

Sample row:

{
  "publication": "www.lennysnewsletter.com",
  "title": "How to hire your first PM",
  "post_date": "2026-09-02T12:01:00.000Z",
  "author": "Lenny Rachitsky",
  "likes": 412,
  "comments": 37,
  "paywalled": false,
  "url": "https://www.lennysnewsletter.com/p/how-to-hire-your-first-pm"
}

Input

Option	Default	What it does
Publication URLs		One or more Substack sites, custom domains included
Max posts per publication	100	Newest first
Only posts since		ISO date; stops at older posts
Post type	all	newsletter, podcast, thread
Include full post body	off	Adds `body_html` and `body_text`
Max posts total	5000	Cap across all publications

Pricing

Pay per event: one small charge per post row. The body option adds one request per post but no extra charge.

Notes and limits

Works with custom domains as long as the site is a Substack (the /api/v1/archive endpoint answers).
Paywalled bodies return only the public preview; this Actor does not bypass paywalls.
Be polite: a 300 ms pause between archive pages is built in.
