Post detail API

21 endpoints on 18 platforms return the same Post object. One post, video, note or article by its ID or link: text, author, engagement counts, time posted. A call costs from $0.0003 to $0.0200, each endpoint at its own price; a failed call is free.

Post detail on each platform

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.

TikTok video detail: From a response recorded 2026-10-12 18:45 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 Post detail API

Short answers. Each endpoint's page has its own limits and examples.

TikTok video detail API →
How much does it cost?

$0.0020 a call on TikTok, YouTube, Instagram, Douyin, Reddit, Facebook, Bilibili, Weibo, LinkedIn, Threads, Kuaishou, Zhihu, Telegram, Pinterest; $0.0200 a call on Xiaohongshu (RedNote), WeChat Official Accounts, WeChat Channels; $0.0003 a call on X (Twitter). You are charged when data comes back; a failed call costs nothing. No subscription, no monthly minimum.

Does every platform fill every field?

No. 25 of the 28 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 18 platforms. No platform account and no cookie.
