How to list a WeChat Channels account's videos
One endpoint does it: WeChat Channels account videos. The worked example below is 2 calls and costs $0.0400 in all; a failed call is not charged.
You get the videos a WeChat Channels (视频号) account has posted, newest first, page after page: each video's ID, description, time posted, and its likes, comments, shares and saves.
Step 1: WeChat Channels account videos
List the account's videos by its ID, the username ending in @finder. Each item's id is the video's ID, which the video and comments endpoints take; metrics holds its counts. For the next page, send page.next_cursor as cursor, until page.has_more is false.

}From a response recorded 2026-10-17 10:14 UTC. Names, text and IDs are examples, and so are the links: none is the recorded one (the page shows no one's personal data); the figures are as recorded. Long lists are cut. The request ID, cursor and balance are made up.

Good to know
- A
page.next_cursoris good for an hour: use it within that time to go on. - An account without videos returns an empty result, and an empty result is charged like a page with data.
The whole script
The task above as one script that runs as it is: Python, the SDK, your key from DATAXAPI_API_KEY. It writes a CSV file and ends by printing what it called, fetched and was charged.
# pip install dataxapi # export DATAXAPI_API_KEY=dx_... (your key) import csv from decimal import Decimal from dataxapi import DataXAPI dx = DataXAPI() calls, fetched, charged = 0, 0, Decimal("0") def run(capability, params): """One call; counts it and what it was charged.""" global calls, charged result = dx.call(capability, params) calls += 1 charged += Decimal(str(result["meta"]["billing"]["amount"])) return result ACCOUNT = "v2_060000231003b20faec8c5e5811dc3ddce02ec30b0772029a703e1b9f446ba147658bbcfab81@finder" PAGES = 2 # The account's videos, newest first, page after page. rows, cursor = [], None for _ in range(PAGES): page = run("wechat_channels.users.videos.list", {"id": ACCOUNT, **({"cursor": cursor} if cursor else {})}) for video in page["data"]["items"]: counts = video.get("metrics", {}) rows.append([video["id"], video.get("published_at"), counts.get("likes"), counts.get("comments"), counts.get("shares"), counts.get("favorites"), video.get("text")]) cursor = page["page"]["next_cursor"] if not page["page"]["has_more"]: break fetched = len(rows) with open("channels-videos.csv", "w", newline="", encoding="utf-8") as file: csv.writer(file).writerows([["id", "published_at", "likes", "comments", "shares", "favorites", "text"], *rows]) print(f"calls: {calls}, items: {fetched}, charged: ${charged}")
Run for real on 2026-10-29: 2 calls, 30 rows written, $0.0400 charged. A failed call is not charged.
