# Get Profile Comments

> Retrieve the comments made by a user on posts and articles.

## Overview

Fetches the list of comments made by a specified user on posts and articles. Pagination is **cursor-based** — pass the `next_cursor` returned by a previous call to fetch the next page.

<Note>This endpoint consumes **1 credit per 10 results** returned. The platform returns up to **50 comments per internal request**, so requesting `count: 100` triggers only 2 upstream calls. Ignore this if you're on per-seat pricing: usage is unlimited.</Note>
