# Comments API

13 endpoints on 13 platforms answer in one response shape. The comments under a post: text, commenter, likes, reply count, time posted. A call costs from $0.0020 to $0.0200, each endpoint at its own price; a failed call is free.

### Which platform fills which field

A field an endpoint cannot give is listed in `meta.unavailable` on every answer, so a gap is never a surprise.

## The same call on two platforms

Same parameter names, same paging, same answer. Only the path changes.

```bash
# Bilibili
curl -G "https://api.dataxapi.com/v1/bilibili/videos/comments/list" \
  --data-urlencode "id=BV1ECeJ65EZS" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $DATAXAPI_API_KEY"

# Douyin: one word changes
curl -G "https://api.dataxapi.com/v1/douyin/videos/comments/list" \
  --data-urlencode "id=7694940173372575014" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $DATAXAPI_API_KEY"
```

### 200 · application/json

Bilibili video comments: From a response recorded 2026-10-12 18:43 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.

## Questions about the Comments API

### How much does it cost?

$0.0020 a call on Bilibili, Douyin, Kuaishou, Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, Weibo, X (Twitter), YouTube, Reddit, Zhihu; $0.0200 a call on Xiaohongshu (RedNote), WeChat Channels. You are charged when data comes back; a failed call costs nothing. No subscription, no monthly minimum.

### How do I get every page?

Pass `page.next_cursor` back as `cursor` until `page.has_more` is false. Each page is one call at the same price.

### Does every platform fill every field?

No. 9 of the 13 fields are missing on at least one platform; the table on this page says which. A field an endpoint cannot give is named in `meta.unavailable` on every answer, never filled with a guess.

### Do I need an account on the platform?

No. One DataXAPI key reads all 13 platforms. No platform account and no cookie.
