Zhihu User Answers: Fetch a User's Published Answers
You have one Zhihu user ID and need the answers that user published, not the answers under a single question. Page through that user's answer list and sort by publish time or vote-ups. Pay only for what you use.
You receive
A run returns the answers published by the given Zhihu user, sorted by created or voteups. It excludes one-question answers, columns, pins and comments. Billed per use, no subscription; one run is capped at $0.0015. The same balance pulls your next user's answers.
Start with your task
Get the published answers from the Zhihu account [user URL token]. Start with 20 answers from offset 0, sort by [creation time or vote-up count], and organize the returned records into a readable list.

Zhihu author URL tokenqueryParams.user_url_token
string
Required
Required identifier for the author whose published answers are requested. Use the confirmed user token, not a question ID, nickname, full URL, or API key.
Supply the confirmed Zhihu user URL token for the person whose published answers you want to review. The lookup is organized around one author. A question identifier would select a different task: finding answers under a particular question.
Use the user token rather than a nickname or full profile URL in the direct request. This account identifier is not an API credential. If the identity is uncertain, confirm it before comparing the returned answers with another account.
Choose how to review the answers
The default ordering is by creation time. Choose the vote-up ordering when you want the list arranged using that alternative measure. These settings change the ordering of the selected user's answers; they do not turn the lookup into a search across all Zhihu authors.
For a direct API request, the supported sorting values are created and voteups. Keep the same sorting choice while moving through successive pages. If you switch between them, restart your comparison from the beginning so that notes from different list orders are not mixed.
Work with one page at a time
The first request uses offset 0 and asks for 20 answers by default. Page size and offset are strings in the API input. The requested page size is not a guaranteed result count, and a single request does not automatically collect the author's entire answer history.
Ask your AI to keep each returned answer as a separate entry and carry over only the details actually available. Formatting the records into a readable list is the AI's work; no separate analysis report is promised. Record the author, sort choice, and pagination position with your notes. An empty page or a failed request should not be described as proof that the person has never published an answer.
Tell your agent what you want to accomplish, including any constraints that matter.
Get the published answers from the Zhihu account [user URL token]. Start with 20 answers from offset 0, sort by [creation time or vote-up count], and organize the returned records into a readable list.
Check before you call
I will inspect this tool, confirm the inputs and current cost, and check your authorization before running it. Then I will explain the result and its limits.
Questions about this tool.
Inputs, results and details to know before running it.
created sorts by answer creation time and is the default. voteups sorts by vote-up count. Keep the same choice while paging through the author's list, because changing the order changes the meaning of a pagination position.
This Tool selects answers by their author's user URL token. A question-based answer lookup is a different task and needs a matching question-answer Tool. Do not substitute a question ID for user_url_token.
One request selects one page using limit and offset. The defaults are "20" and "0". Request additional pages explicitly as needed; no automatic collection of the complete history is promised.
A direct request requires the confirmed Zhihu user URL token. A nickname or full URL is not the value expected in that field. Confirm the author's identifier first if you only have another form of reference.
