Using APIs (Application Programming Interface)
• Each blogspot blog has an associated number. My movies blog, for instance, has the number 31487588. It can be seen when you post a new item in your blog. You can obtain the xml for your blog using that number and some utility like wget or curl:
• wget http://www.blogger.com/feeds/31487588/posts/default
This gives you a few of the last entries
![Page 19: Wiki and Blogs Ashish Mahabal Ay/Bi 199b 29 Mar 2011](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062519/5697bfc41a28abf838ca6279/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
To get a large number of, or all, entries, use something like:
wget http://www.blogger.com/feeds/31487588/posts/default?max-results=20000
For getting entries between two dates, use the following format:
wget http://www.blogger.com/feeds/31487588/posts/default?published-min=2008-03-16T00:00:00&published-max=2009-03-24T23:59:59
To get those with specific labels e.g. "action", do:
wget http://www.blogger.com/feeds/31487588/posts/default/-/action/
