How do I connect it?
To connect: paste this to your AI assistant: “Read https://dataxapi.com/agents.md and set up DataXAPI here. My API key is dx_…; use it for every DataXAPI call.” A client that takes a remote MCP server can be given https://api.dataxapi.com/mcp with the header Authorization: Bearer <key> instead.
What can I ask about Weibo?
A post's link or a keyword will do.
| You say | What it calls |
|---|---|
| The latest 50 Weibo posts about a brand | weibo.posts.search |
| How the comments under this post split, positive against negative | weibo.posts.comments.list |
| The top 20 hot searches, with the latest posts on each | weibo.trends.list, weibo.posts.search |
| This account's last 30 posts and its follower count | weibo.users.posts.list, weibo.users.get |
Good to know
Long posts are cut short in search and account lists; post details give the whole text. It reads public data only, and a failed call is not charged.
Why DataXAPI
- Steady: endpoints were available 99.9% of the last 30 days, on a public status page you can check.
- Fast: a paid call took 1.6 seconds at the median over the last 7 days (counted 2026-11-06).
- Fewer tokens: across 11 endpoints on Weibo, one recorded real response each, the platform's own JSON comes to 551k tokens and what an AI reads through DataXAPI's MCP server to 17k, 97% fewer; the JSON of a direct API call is 94% fewer too (counted 2026-11-06). Every platform answers in one shape: the author in
author, counts inmetrics, the next page inpage.next_cursor, so another platform needs no new parser. - See before you pay: every endpoint's page shows a recorded real response, field by field.
- Spending you control: a failed call is not charged; each key can have a limit,
X-Max-Pricecaps one call, and the sameIdempotency-Keywithin 24 hours is never charged twice. - Ready for AI: a remote MCP server listed in the official MCP registry as
com.dataxapi/mcp, usable from Claude, Cursor and ChatGPT. - Free trial of up to 333 calls, no card.
