What Can This Bilibili Comments Scraper Do? (Features)

Bilibili Comments Capability	Built-In Advantage
Dual-Endpoint Comment Extraction (video_comments)	Automatically queries both /x/v2/reply/main and /x/v2/reply with WBI signing and buvid3 fingerprinting so comment threads are extracted reliably without login.
Standardized English IP Geolocation (regionEn)	Automatically maps every commenter's Chinese IP location tag (IP属地：广东, IP属地：上海) into clean English province/country names (Guangdong, Shanghai, Beijing, United States).
Creator Endorsement & User Level Signals	Captures commenter account level (authorLevel: 0–6), whether the comment is pinned to the top (isPinned), and whether the UP creator liked (upLiked) or replied (upReplied).
Smart Keyword Auto-Discovery	Don't have specific BV video IDs? Leave videoIds empty and enter any English or Chinese brand/topic in searchQuery (e.g., Black Myth Wukong, Tesla) to auto-discover videos and extract their comments.
Parent Video Metrics Mode (video_details)	Optionally switch mode to video_details to inspect the parent video's views, likes, coins, favorites, shares, and coinPerViewRatio.
256 MB RAM Real-Time Streaming	Streams comment records into your Apify Dataset in real-time batches of 10 rows on just 256 MB RAM, supporting scheduled runs (deltaMode) and JSON, CSV, Excel, or Parquet exports.
