# How do I connect Xiaohongshu data to Dify? (MCP, 2026)

Add https://api.dataxapi.com/mcp under Tools, MCP in Dify with your key in a header, and an Agent can read Xiaohongshu; for a fixed flow, call the endpoint from a workflow's HTTP Request node. A page of search is $0.0200. One keyword and the comments on 5 notes come to $0.12, and the model is paid for apart. DataXAPI reads Xiaohongshu (RedNote) with 21 endpoints, from $0.0200 a call; a failed call is not charged.

## With an Agent: MCP

Go to Integrations, Tools, MCP and add an MCP server (HTTP). URL is `https://api.dataxapi.com/mcp`, Name is `DataXAPI`, Server Identifier is `dataxapi`. Under Advanced Options, Custom Headers, set `Authorization` to `Bearer` and your key.

Make an Agent app, or an Agent node in a workflow, and pick the DataXAPI tools. Then ask: “Use DataXAPI to find popular Xiaohongshu notes on camping, and tell me what the comments complain about.”

Headers came in Dify 1.9.0; a self-hosted Dify older than that signs in with OAuth instead. The key in a header is shared by the whole workspace, so give it a daily limit.

## In a fixed workflow: HTTP Request node

Use a GET to `https://api.dataxapi.com/v1/xiaohongshu/notes/search` with the parameter `query`, and API Key, Bearer as its authorization, with your key. The notes are in `data.items`. You pick the endpoint and the model does not choose, which keeps the cost the same each run.

## What it comes to

One search at $0.0200 and the first page of comments on 5 notes at $0.0200 each come to $0.12. 100 such questions are $12. An Agent decides how many calls to make, so its bill can differ; a failed call is not charged. These steps follow Dify's documents as read on the date below; its screens may differ in your version.
