Comment ingestion

Import partner comments into canonical novel discussions with durable attribution.

What the endpoint does

A successful ingestion request resolves a novel, creates or reuses its canonical discussion thread, creates an external identity record, and adds the comment with your integration as its source.

Imported comments pass through normal Forum moderation and can be reported or removed. An integration does not receive moderator privileges.

Attribution

Before account linking, the Forum shows the supplied username with your platform's source label. After the same external UUID is linked, historical and future imported comments can resolve to that Genesis account while retaining source provenance.

Delivery model

Send one request per source comment. Use your immutable source event ID as the idempotency key and retry delivery failures with the same key. Genesis returns the canonical post and thread IDs so your system can store a cross-reference.

Default limits

The default limit is 60 imported posts per minute per integration. Payloads must use application/json and remain below 32 KB. Genesis may approve different throughput after reviewing expected volume and moderation capacity.
