Search posts by keyword, read a trending board, fetch posts by URL, read the comments under posts, or pull user profiles with their latest posts.
Keywords or hashtags to search Weibo for, in Chinese or English. Used in 'search' mode. Each keyword returns up to about 100 posts, merged from Weibo's All, Latest, Hot, Video and Media tabs plus the #topic# page.
Used in 'trending' mode. Hot search is the realtime 热搜 board of about 50 topics with heat values. Topics is the 话题榜 with read and discussion counts. Hot posts is the 热门微博 feed of the most viral posts right now.
Weibo post links (weibo.com//, m.weibo.cn/status/, m.weibo.cn/detail/), numeric post ids or base62 codes. Used in 'posts' and 'comments' modes.
Weibo profile links (weibo.com/u/, weibo.com/, m.weibo.cn/u/), numeric user ids or exact screen names. Used in 'users' mode.
Cap on posts per keyword, rows per trending board, or latest posts per user. Weibo shows logged-out visitors about 100 posts per keyword and the 10 most recent posts per user. Set 0 in 'users' mode to get profiles only.
Cap on comment rows (including replies) per post in 'comments' mode.
Hot puts the most liked comments first, the way Weibo shows them. Latest lists newest first.
Also fetch every reply under each comment, as rows with parentCommentId set. Replies count toward Max comments per post.
Search results and timelines cut long posts short with '全文'. When on, the full text is fetched for those posts (one extra request each).
In 'users' mode, also fetch registration date, birthday, company, school, credit level and influence labels (one extra request per user).
Hard cap on rows written by this run across all inputs. Leave empty for no cap.
