# Which APIs get WeChat Official Account data: past articles, full text, reads, comments? (2026) All of them. WeChat's own interface only manages an account you run. DataXAPI has 8 Official Account endpoints that read any public account on one key: past articles, full text, reads and likes, comments and replies, the account and who is behind it. DataXAPI reads WeChat Official Accounts with 8 endpoints, from $0.0200 a call; a failed call is not charged. Updated 2026-11-04 ## What each one gives All eight are priced on the page below. The account search also gives an estimate of active followers and average reads. | Question | Can it be read? | What you give | | --- | --- | --- | | An account's past articles | Yes, page by page, newest first | Original ID | | An article's full text | Yes | The article's link | | Reads, likes, shares; recommends with `view=full` | Yes, as they stand now | The long link | | Comments and replies | The featured ones | The article's link | | Who is behind an account | Yes | Original ID | | An account's original ID | Yes, by name or keyword | A name | ## How it differs from WeChat's own interface WeChat's interface is for running your own account: you register, get an AppID and work on what that account publishes. It does not read other accounts. These endpoints read what is public, and you do not need an account of your own. ## Endpoints - [WeChat Official Account articles](https://dataxapi.com/apis/wechat_mp/accounts/articles/list/) ($0.0200 / a call): Get a page of the articles a WeChat Official Account published, newest first: title, digest, link, time published. - [WeChat Official Account article detail](https://dataxapi.com/apis/wechat_mp/articles/get/) ($0.0200 / a call): Get one WeChat Official Account article by its link: title, text, time published, the account's name and IDs. - [WeChat Official Account article stats](https://dataxapi.com/apis/wechat_mp/articles/metrics/) ($0.0200 / a call): Get the current counts of a WeChat Official Account article by its long link: reads, likes, recommends, shares, saves, comments. - [WeChat Official Account article comments](https://dataxapi.com/apis/wechat_mp/articles/comments/list/) ($0.0200 / a call): Get a page of the featured comments on a WeChat Official Account article by its link: text, commenter, likes, reply count, time posted, IP location. - [WeChat Official Account comment replies](https://dataxapi.com/apis/wechat_mp/comments/replies/list/) ($0.0200 / a call): Get the replies under one comment on a WeChat Official Account article, by the comment's ID and the article's link: text, replier, likes, time posted, IP location, which reply each answers. The first batch only; no further pages. - [WeChat Official Account profile](https://dataxapi.com/apis/wechat_mp/accounts/get/) ($0.0200 / a call): Get a WeChat Official Account by its original ID: name, IP location, number of original articles, the linked Channels account. - [WeChat Official Account name search](https://dataxapi.com/apis/wechat_mp/accounts/search/) ($0.05635 / an item): Find WeChat Official Accounts by name or keyword, closest first: original ID, WeChat ID, name, avatar, owner, and a third-party database's estimates of active followers, lead-article reads and likes, and articles a week (not official, possibly months old). Charged per account; limit sets how many (5 by default, at most 15). Needing the ID and not the estimates, wechat.accounts.search, charged per call, costs less. - [WeChat Official Account owner](https://dataxapi.com/apis/wechat_mp/accounts/owner/get/) ($0.1 / a call): Get who a WeChat Official Account is registered to, by its original ID: the owner's name, type, registration number, country, verification status, kind and date, and the account's registration date and authorised third-party services. ## How-to guides - [How to list a WeChat Official Account's past articles](https://dataxapi.com/guides/wechat-official-account-articles/) - [How to get WeChat Official Account article reads and likes](https://dataxapi.com/guides/wechat-article-reads-and-likes/) ## Sources What this page says of other services is from their own pages and documents, read on 2026-11-04.
