Usage notes

Good for

  • Use it when a root comment is known and you need its public replies.

Not for

  • Do not use it to discover root comments or for full archives.

Known limitations

  • Only the first page, up to 20 replies, is returned.
  • Deleted, private, or restricted content is absent.
  • 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.
