Xiaohongshu Search Scraper returns the notes Xiaohongshu (RedNote) shows for a keyword: title and text, images and video, like, favorite and comment counts, tags and the author. Chinese keywords return the best results.

It is the single-purpose version of Xiaohongshu 小红书 RedNote Scraper, which covers many more modes of the same platform. Same data, same prices, a simpler form.

What you get

Every record is flat JSON with these fields (empty when the platform does not show the value): authorAvatar, authorId, authorIpLocation, authorName, authorRedId, authorUrl, authorVerified, collects, comments, coverUrl, description, durationSeconds, hashtags, imageCount, imageUrls, likes, noteId, noteType, publishedAt, shares, title, type, url, videoUrl, xsecToken.

How to use it

1. Click Try for free (or Start) and fill in the form.
2. Set maxResults to cap how many records, and therefore how much, a run returns.
3. Run it and download the dataset as JSON, CSV or Excel, or read it through the API.

Input

Field	Type	What it does
keyword	string	Search keyword. Chinese keywords return the best results. Mode suggest returns the platform's search suggestions for it; mode hotNotes returns the hot notes board filtered by it (optional there when a ranking or category is chosen).
maxResults	integer	Maximum number of items to return in total for this run. You are charged per item returned.

How much does it cost?

Pay per event: you pay only for records delivered to your dataset. Prices depend on your Apify plan.

Event	What it covers	Bronze	Silver	Gold, Platinum, Diamond
Run start	once per run	$0.00005	$0.00005	$0.00005
Result	Each note returned	$0.0046	$0.00415	$0.00375

Example: 100 notes on Bronze cost about $0.46, on Gold about $0.38.

On the free Apify plan you get 2 free trial runs of this Actor with your own input, up to 10 results each, and nothing is charged; after that, runs return a stored sample dataset (a real result of the prefilled input). Use any paid Apify plan for full runs.

Use cases

• Research what Chinese consumers post about a product category before entering the market.
• Find creators and content that perform in your niche.
• Track mentions of a brand or product over time.

Why use this scraper

• No account, no cookies, no proxies. You give keywords, links or IDs; the Actor does the rest.
• You pay for data you get. A failed or empty run says why in its status message and whether anything was charged.
• Try before paying. Free Apify accounts get 2 free trial runs with their own input, up to 10 results each, nothing charged.
• Flat JSON records ready for spreadsheets, databases and AI pipelines.

Integrations and API

Start runs from the Apify API, schedule them in the Apify Console, and send results to webhooks, Google Sheets, n8n, Make or Zapier. Python example with apify-client:

from apify_client import ApifyClient

client = ApifyClient("<YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN>")
run = client.actor("clover_folktale/xiaohongshu-search-scraper").call(run_input={"keyword": "咖啡", "maxResults": 20})
for item in client.dataset(run["defaultDatasetId"]).iterate_items():
    print(item)

Use it from AI agents (MCP, n8n, Make)

This Actor works as a tool for AI agents through the Apify MCP server. Add it to Claude, Cursor or any MCP client with https://mcp.apify.com?tools=clover_folktale/xiaohongshu-search-scraper.
