Posts

GET /v1/bluesky/user/posts

Fetches a paginated feed of posts from a Bluesky user, returning each post's uri, record text, author info, embed content, replyCount, repostCount, likeCount, quoteCount, and indexedAt. Supports pagination via cursor. Use user_id (the 'did') instead of handle for faster response times.

Authentication

All requests require the x-api-key header. Get your key at scrapecreators.com.
