Usage notes

Good for

Use it to review what a public account posts and how it performs.

Not for

Do not use it for private accounts, stories, highlights, or tagged posts.

Known limitations

It needs the numeric user ID; get it from the user profile listing.
Each page asks for at most 33 posts; media download URLs are not returned.
Only the returned DataXAPI cursor can continue the same query.
Counts are point-in-time public snapshots, not live or historical trends.
Nested objects such as the author are returned as upstream sends them, minus tokens, account-binding flags, privacy settings, and tracking fields; avatar and media links inside them may expire.

Billing

¥0.02 per call. Nonempty complete results are charged; empty, partial, and failed results are not.
