Kuaishou (China)

Kuaishou Video Comments API

Pull the comment thread under a Kuaishou (China) video — comment text, author name and id, IP-location province, like count, reply count and timestamp — 30 root comments per page, as JSON. Costs 1 credit per page, so a full thread is cheap to mine. Pagination is cursor-based: send the response's pcursor back as cursor. A preview of the replies to the hottest comments rides along in the same response for free.

POST/api/v1/kuaishou/video/comments

Authorizations

Authorizationstringheaderrequired

Bearer authentication header of the form Bearer <token>, where <token> is your Scavio API key (e.g. Bearer sk_live_your_key).

Body

application/json

photo_idstringrequired

Kuaishou photo (video) id, non-empty. Both the alphanumeric form (3x7gxp2zhgjv832) and the numeric form work. This endpoint takes the id only — there is no URL form here; resolve a link with Video Details first if that is all you have.

Example: 3x7gxp2zhgjv832

cursorstring

Opaque pagination cursor. Omit it for the first page, then pass back the pcursor value from the previous response. The response field is called pcursor, not next_cursor. A pcursor of "no_more" means there are no further pages.

Example: V2#ac1b6760-96d6-4d3a-93b2-21c30e0953db#dph#30#846697657492_30
