I'm looking at making a fun project for generating media recommendations based on past viewing behavior and I'd like to know if the API exposes something like "previous N items that user X played"

Looking through the swagger docs on my server, i see an endpoint of /Users/{UserID}/Views but that only seems to return all of my libraries, not the individual media for that given user's playback history. I'd like to get the last X (configurable) items that a given user Id has played, but no luck so far.

I'm using the python library here

I browsed to my jellyfin media library with the network tab open and set the filter to "Played" and it made a request like this:

https://{ host }/Users/{ user_id }/Items?SortBy=DateCreated%2CSortName%2CProductionYear&SortOrder=Descending&IncludeItemTypes=Movie&Recursive=true&Fields=PrimaryImageAspectRatio%2CMediaSourceCount%2CBasicSyncInfo&ImageTypeLimit=1&EnableImageTypes=Primary%2CBackdrop%2CBanner%2CThumb&StartIndex=0&Limit=100&Filters=IsPlayed

I can't check right now, but if you go to your.ip:8096/api-docs/swagger/index.html you can see all endpoints.

Sorry for posting here, somehow I cant respond to the op.

Thanks, that's a great start. Perhaps a combination of the limit, filters, and sort by query parameters might get me there. Now to find what all options there are other than date created for the sorting.
