## FAQ

### How do I fetch a Kwai video with an API?

Send a GET request to /v1/kwai/post with the video's kwai.com URL — for example https://www.kwai.com/@KwaiBrasilOficial/photo/5193363430624671876. SocialCrawl returns the caption, video and cover URLs, engagement counts, author info, and music metadata in one JSON payload.

### What fields does the Kwai Post API return?

The response includes the caption, video URL, cover image URL, view/like/comment/share counts, the author's profile info, and music metadata — the track used in the video — normalized into the unified Post schema shared with TikTok video endpoints.

### Does the Kwai Post API include music metadata?

Yes. Each video carries the music track it uses, so you can spot which songs are fueling trends on Brazil's biggest short-video app — the same sound-tracking workflow teams already run against TikTok, now for the LatAm market.

### How much does the Kwai Post API cost?

Each request costs 1 credit on the standard tier. New accounts get 100 free credits with no credit card required — enough to fetch 100 videos with full engagement counts while you evaluate.

### Can I track how a Kwai video goes viral?

Yes. Poll the video URL on a schedule and store viewCount, likeCount, commentCount, and shareCount over time to chart its spread. The counts are normalized into the same engagement object as TikTok and Instagram, so your charting code is reusable.
