If there is some form of API or library that I could use, e.g. from C#, that would be nice. There are quite a number of files that need to be parsed.

(PS: I post here per suggestion by emilyhua-msft, fully understanding that my question is not about add-ins.)

    If you want to read the content of *.one files, you can use OneNote Interop : Application interface (OneNote)

    Nice, thank you!

    Can I use that interface from within a command line program that runs on a server?

    The server is ideally a Linux system, with a Mono/.Net runtime.
