Hongguo Latest Releases API

Discover today's complete Hongguo release snapshot or browse historical releases by page. The Actor supports comic dramas, short dramas, and AI live-action dramas and returns one normalized Dataset row per title. Users do not need a Hongguo API key.

What you get

• Today's complete release snapshot without manual pagination
• Optional historical pagination with page and limit
• Normalized IDs, titles, covers, publish times, episode counts, and content types
• A traceId for troubleshooting without exposing upstream credentials or billing data
• JSON, CSV, Excel, and other exports through Apify Datasets

Input

{
  "contentType": "comic",
  "allTime": false,
  "page": 1
}

Value	Catalog
comic	Comic dramas
drama	Short dramas
ai	AI live-action dramas

page and limit are used only when allTime is true. The upstream maintenance-only cache bypass is intentionally unavailable.
