Import Instapaper articles

[Jeff Holmes]

I would like to import a lot of web articles from Instapaper to Zotero.

Since Zotero does not support CSV or HTML, I assume that I will need to do this with code using the REST API.

I am able to generate a list of URLs for articles.

I am able to post/write an article to my Zotero library using the URL. However, the fields (author, title, dates, etc.) are not populated like when using the Zotero browser extension.

Any suggestions would be appreciated, especially links to code examples.

Zotero doesn't "support" those formats because they're not bibliographic
data exchange formats. There's nothing to import.

Okay, what is the Zotero browser extension doing when you click on it? It saves all the info about the web article automatically.
