Usage notes

Good for

  • Use it for one bounded page of directly relevant public comments from an already relevant account.

Not for

  • Do not use it for monitoring, deanonymization, sensitive profiling, lifetime archiving, or representative claims.

Known limitations

  • One page is not a complete account history or stable opinion profile.
  • Missing parent context is not manufactured.
  • Only a DataXAPI-signed cursor can continue the same user, sort, and page size.

Billing

¥0.02 per call. Complete and confirmed empty results are charged; partial results and failures are not.
