Currently, there's no method (without scraping) to automatically collect Articles & Discussions.
At one point there was a way to get Articles, but it's since been removed from public functionality (and so non-functional).
Please add enough support so that programmatic detection and flagging of spam and rude/abusive content in Collectives Articles and Discussions can be performed. To do so, we need:
- an API endpoint be added to fetch Collectives Discussions and Articles;
- a WebSocket that gives information about new Articles or Discussions, including all similar triggers to "active" questions (e.g., creation, edit, and new Discussions reply), as if the Article or Discussion was a question (so polling for activity isn't required); and
- an SE API endpoint for raising and retracting red flags on Collectives Discussions and Articles.
We need to be able to programmatically obtain the content that users' post and be notified when such content is posted or changed, particularly when posting that content doesn't required a non-trivial amount of reputation (e.g, the comment everywhere privilege).
