# Account object

36 endpoints on 17 platforms return the Account object with the same 11 fields, so code written for one platform reads the others unchanged. A call costs $0.0004 to $0.0400.

For machines: [account schema](https://dataxapi.com/openapi.json#/components/schemas/account), [openapi.json](https://dataxapi.com/openapi.json), [Object table (JSON)](https://api.dataxapi.com/v1/catalog/objects), [llms.txt](https://dataxapi.com/llms.txt)

An Account is a user, a channel, a page or an official account on a platform: handle, display name, bio, and its counts of followers, following and posts. Profiles, user searches and the lists of followers, likers, retweeters and members all return it.

The `author` of a post or a comment points to an account by its `id` and `username`. A creator on Xingtu (星图) or PGY (蒲公英) is a separate object, Creator, which points to its account with `account_id`.

## Fields

A field the platform cannot give is left out of the item and named in `meta.unavailable`. It is never filled with a guess or a zero.

| Field | Type | From view | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `id` | text | `compact` | ID |
| `username` | text | `compact` | Handle |
| `name` | text | `compact` | Display name |
| `url` | link | `compact` | Link to the profile |
| `bio` | text | `compact` | Bio |
| `avatar_url` | link | `standard` | Avatar |
| `verified` | yes/no | `standard` | Whether the account is verified |
| `created_at` | time | `standard` | When the account was created |
| `metrics` | object | `compact` | Account counts |
| `metrics.followers` | integer | `compact` | Followers |
| `metrics.following` | integer | `compact` | Following |
| `metrics.posts` | integer | `compact` | Posts published |

## Where each number comes from

The same field name does not always mean the same act on every platform. This table says which of the platform's own numbers goes into the field.

| Field | What it holds there | On |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `created_at` | The day the page was created; no time of day | Facebook |
| `metrics.followers` | Subscribers | Telegram |
| `metrics.followers` | People who follow the page; from a thousand up the platform gives a rounded figure | Facebook |
| `metrics.followers` | Subscribers, which the platform shows to three significant figures | YouTube |
| `metrics.posts` | Videos uploaded | Bilibili |
| `metrics.posts` | Videos | YouTube |

## What a platform cannot give

A platform stands against a field when none of its endpoints gives it.

| Field | Not available on |
| --- | --- |
| `id` | Telegram |
| `username` | Weibo, WeChat Channels, WeChat Official Accounts |
| `url` | Kuaishou, WeChat Channels, WeChat Official Accounts |
| `bio` | WeChat Official Accounts |
| `avatar_url` | WeChat Official Accounts |
| `verified` | Facebook, LinkedIn, WeChat Channels, WeChat Official Accounts, Zhihu |
| `created_at` | Bilibili, Douyin, Kuaishou, Telegram, LinkedIn, Threads, Instagram, Xiaohongshu (RedNote), WeChat Channels, WeChat Official Accounts, Zhihu |
| `metrics.followers` | LinkedIn, WeChat Channels, WeChat Official Accounts, Reddit |
| `metrics.following` | Telegram, Facebook, LinkedIn, Threads, YouTube, WeChat Channels, WeChat Official Accounts, Reddit, Zhihu |
| `metrics.posts` | Telegram, Facebook, LinkedIn, Threads, Instagram, WeChat Official Accounts, Zhihu |

One endpoint may still leave out a field another gives: each endpoint's page lists what it cannot give, and every answer says so in `meta.unavailable`.
