Collecting 1,000 comments takes about 50 calls, $0.75 in total. Each page is a separate call; failed calls are not charged. ### How do I get the next page? Pass page.next_cursor from the response back as the cursor parameter. When page.has_more is false there is nothing left. Every page is its own call at $0.015. ### Do I need a WeChat Channels account, cookies or a QR login? No. You send only your okdata API key. The data is public data from WeChat Channels; nothing is fetched with your own WeChat Channels account. ### Am I charged when a call fails? No. Every error response says charged: false, except a timeout, which says charged: null until the outcome is known. Resend with the same Idempotency-Key and you are never charged twice. ### What if WeChat Channels does not show a field? The field is null, and meta.unavailable names it with the reason: platform (the platform never shows it) or capability (we cannot fetch it yet). ## More WeChat Channels endpoints - [WeChat Channels video search](https://okdata.online/apis/wechat_channels/videos/search/): $0.02 per call · about 10 videos per page - [WeChat Channels account search](https://okdata.online/apis/wechat_channels/users/search/): $0.02 per call · about 1 accounts per page - [WeChat Channels account profile](https://okdata.online/apis/wechat_channels/users/get/): $0.02 per call - [WeChat Channels account videos](https://okdata.online/apis/wechat_channels/users/videos/list/): $0.02 per call · about 15 videos per page - [WeChat Channels video detail](https://okdata.online/apis/wechat_channels/videos/get/): $0.02 per call - [WeChat Channels video comments](https://okdata.online/apis/wechat_channels/videos/comments/list/): $0.015 per call · about 25 comments per page - [WeChat Channels live replays](https://okdata.online/apis/wechat_channels/users/live_replays/list/): $0.02 per call · about 48 posts per page - [WeChat Channels video share link](https://okdata.online/apis/wechat_channels/videos/share_link/get/): $0.02 per call - [WeChat Channels account collections](https://okdata.online/apis/wechat_channels/users/collections/list/): $0.02 per call · about 7 results per page - [WeChat Channels collection videos](https://okdata.online/apis/wechat_channels/collections/videos/list/): $0.02 per call · about 20 videos per page - [WeChat Channels video stats](https://okdata.online/apis/wechat_channels/videos/metrics/): $0.015 per call - [WeChat Channels account profile (backup)](https://okdata.online/apis/wechat_channels/backup/users/get/): $0.03 per call - [WeChat Channels account videos (backup)](https://okdata.online/apis/wechat_channels/backup/users/videos/list/): $0.06 per call · about 15 videos per page - [WeChat Channels video search (backup)](https://okdata.online/apis/wechat_channels/backup/videos/search/): $0.15 per call · about 10 videos per page ## At a glance - **Short name**: WeChat Channels comment replies - **Category**: [Social media](https://okdata.online/categories/social/) - **Data type**: [Comment replies API](https://okdata.online/roles/comments-replies-list/) - **Status**: preview.
