FAQ
What Kuaishou data can I get?
Single videos (caption, author, play, like, comment, share and save counts, hashtags, publish time, duration and cover), first-level comments and their replies (with IP location and a hot-comment flag), a creator's hot videos most liked first, and the Kuaishou hot board (about 50 words with rank, heat and label).
Where do I find a Kuaishou video's ID?
The video and comment endpoints take the video's eid, the part of its link (for example 3xry7mhn2ywjyqg); the numeric photo_id is not accepted. A creator's hot videos take the numeric uid, which is the author.uid of a video or comment record.
How do I page through Kuaishou comments?
Pass back the previous page's cursor until has_more is false. First-level comments come about 30 on the first page and about 20 after; replies are about 12 a page and come from the comment replies endpoint.
Do I need a Kuaishou account or cookies?
No. All you need is a Qovia API key: no accounts, cookies, proxies or request signing to maintain.
How is it billed?
Prepaid and per call: only successful calls that return data are charged, and empty results, errors and timeouts are not. Every response says what it cost (meta.charged_usd). Each endpoint's price is in the API reference.
Can I use it from Claude, Cursor or other AI tools?
Yes. Qovia is also an MCP server (https://api.qovia.ai/mcp): add it to Claude Code, Cursor or VS Code with your API key and the AI finds the endpoint, pulls the data and summarises it.
What should I keep in mind when using the data?
Qovia provides a data API service and claims no ownership of the underlying content. Use the data under applicable law and Kuaishou's platform rules; see our terms of service.
