Exporting replies and nested threads
How replies are captured and how to identify them in the output.
Every export includes replies by default. In the output, each reply has a parent_id that links it to the comment it replies to.
Identifying replies
- parent_id is empty for top-level comments.
- parent_id contains the id of the parent comment for replies.
- JSON exports include a nested replies[] array on each comment for convenience.
