Is it possible to download Hyperkitty's archives to a remote server via an API? Is there documentation that explains how to accomplish this task?

I don't think there is documentation, but if you look at the target of any download button, it should be obvious. I.e. the link to download the entire archive for this list is

https://lists.mailman3.org/archives/list/mailman-users@mailman3.org/export/mailman-users@mailman3.org-2021-02.mbox.gz?start=1999-11-09&end=2021-02-09

The mailman-users@mailman3.org-2021-02.mbox.gz part is the name of the file to download to and the -2021-02 part can be anything or nothing, but the name must begin with the list posting address and end with .mbox.gz.

If the archive is large, this can time out in which case adjust start and end to download it in pieces.

Hyperkitty also has a traditional REST API, which can be used to ingest archives on a different server that doesn’t necessarily want to deal with mboxes.

The documentation comes with Hyperkitty and is typically available at “/api” in Hyperkitty. So something like this on our server:

https://lists.mailman3.org/archives/api/

There is also a “HTML” version where you can actually browse through the API like a webpage. It returns Json/XML/txt when you ask for it. The above page should have the details.
