Last we officially finalized the API and moved it out of beta.

"Finalized" feels a bit ominous given the limited functionality in the API.

Is it possible to import user notes while preserving the original timestamp and moderator name?

We had to move most of our Toolbox user notes into an external table because we repeatedly hit the wiki page size limit. I'm totally down to write code to import them, but the API is missing a key feature, the ability to set a different timestamp and moderator name[1] (obviously, this would need to be done in a way that shows those attributes have been set artificially). That's still an important feature even beyond importing old user notes because subreddits frequently use bots to take action on behalf of moderators.

Edit: There's a lot more distance to go with user notes like AutoModerator support, custom labels, including user notes (or at least that there *are* user notes) in comment and submission objects so they can be seen by bots/clients, ability to link a modmail thread/message in a user note, and more[2] (private subreddit).

Hey is there an import script available? If it was written in one language I’m sure there’d be people contributing alternatives.
