Overview
This node integrates with the Inoreader API to manage and retrieve articles, feeds, tags, and folders from a user's Inoreader account. Specifically, the "Get Many From Read Later" operation under the "Article" resource fetches multiple articles saved in the user's "Read Later" section.
Use cases include:
- Automatically retrieving a batch of articles you have marked to read later for further processing or analysis.
- Integrating your reading list into other workflows, such as sending summaries via email or saving article metadata to a database.
- Building dashboards or reports based on your saved articles.
For example, you could use this node to pull the latest 50 articles you've saved to read later and then send their titles and URLs to a Slack channel.

Output
The output is an array of JSON objects, each representing an article retrieved from the Read Later section. Each article object contains detailed metadata as provided by the Inoreader API, including fields like title, author, content snippet, URL, publication date, and unique article ID.
No binary data is output by this operation.
Example structure of one item in json output (simplified):
{
"id": "unique-article-id",
"title": "Article Title",
"author": "Author Name",
"published": 1616161616,
"link": "https://example.com/article-url",
"content": "...",
"categories": ["tag1", "tag2"],
...
}
Dependencies
- Requires an OAuth2 API credential configured for Inoreader to authenticate requests.
- The node makes HTTP requests to the Inoreader API endpoints.
- No additional environment variables are required beyond the OAuth2 credential setup.
Troubleshooting
Error: "No streamId resolved!"
This occurs if the internal stream identifier for the Read Later section cannot be determined. It should not happen for this operation since the Read Later tag ID is hardcoded internally. If it does, verify that your Inoreader account has a valid Read Later section.Error: Authentication failures
Ensure your OAuth2 credentials are correctly set up and authorized with sufficient permissions to access the Inoreader API.Empty results returned
Could mean there are no articles currently saved in the Read Later section or the limit is set too low.Rate limiting or API errors
The Inoreader API may throttle requests; handle errors gracefully and consider adding retry logic or increasing intervals between executions.
