# How do I pull Douyin's hot-topic data by program? (2026)

3 endpoints at $0.0020 a call: douyin.trends.list for hot searches and rising topics, douyin.index.trends.list for the live and fastest-rising topics of Douyin's index tool, and douyin.videos.trending for the last day's video boards. One page of all 11 boards once an hour comes to $15.84 a month. To look by hand, 热点宝's address is douhot.douyin.com, which asks you to scan in with a Douyin account. DataXAPI reads Douyin with 36 endpoints, from $0.0020 a call; a failed call is not charged.

## Looking by hand, or keeping a table

Opening douhot.douyin.com on 2026-11-04 led to a page asking you to scan in with a Douyin account, and that page names the service 生活服务热点中心 (a hot-topic centre for local services). We did not log in, so what is inside is not described here. The endpoints below are for a table kept on a schedule, with one key and no Douyin account of yours.

## Which board gives what

`board` picks the list. Each `heat` is the platform's own score, not a count of searches.

| Endpoint | `board` | What comes back |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `douyin.trends.list` | `hot_search` | About 50 at once, with name, rank and heat. `view=full` adds `ext.videos` and `ext.views` |
| `douyin.trends.list` | `rising`, `topics` | 10 a page, charged by the page, with name, rank and heat. `view=full` adds `ext.videos`, and `ext.views` on `topics` |
| `douyin.trends.list` | `searches` | 10 top search terms a page, with heat, without rank |
| `douyin.trends.list` | `music` | The music chart, without rank; `view=full` adds `ext.artist` |
| `douyin.index.trends.list` | `topics`, `rising` | About 30 with name, rank and topic index. `view=full` adds `ext.views`, `ext.videos` and `ext.category` |
| `douyin.videos.trending` | `low_fan`, `high_like`, `high_completion`, `high_follow` | About 9 videos a page: text, link, author's name and followers, plays, likes. `view=full` adds `ext.new_followers`, `ext.like_rate` and `ext.follow_rate` |

## Keeping a history

Each answer is the board as it stands, refreshed every 10 minutes, and `meta.fetched_at` says when it was taken. Asking more often gives the same reading. To see what is climbing, store each reading with its time and compare places.

In one go, `dataxapi run trends platforms=douyin,weibo,bilibili --out trends.csv` writes each platform's default board to one table: 3 calls, $0.006. To check whether a word on a board has lasted, `douyin.index.keywords.history` reads its daily index, at $0.0060.

| A month | Calls | Comes to |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Hot searches, once an hour | 720 × $0.0020 | $1.44 |
| Hot searches, rising topics and the index tool's rising topics, once an hour | 2,160 × $0.0020 | $4.32 |
| All 11 boards, once an hour | 7,920 × $0.0020 | $15.84 |
| All 11 boards, once a day | 330 × $0.0020 | $0.66 |

## From a board to ideas

With an AI that has DataXAPI connected: “Read Douyin's hot searches and rising topics, drop what has nothing to do with skin care, and give me 3 angles for each that is left.” That is 2 calls: $0.004. The topics come as words: to see the videos, search a word with `douyin.videos.search`, at $0.0200.
