WeChat Article Scraper — 公众号 Full Text + English

What does WeChat Article Scraper do?

It searches WeChat Official Account (微信公众号) articles by keyword and extracts the full article text: title, account, author, exact publish time, images, cover and the official account ID (gh_...) and __biz. You can also paste mp.weixin.qq.com article links directly.

WeChat is where Chinese companies, media and government publish long-form content, and it's closed to Google. This Actor gives you that content as clean JSON. No login, no WeChat account needed.

🇬🇧 Don't read Chinese? Turn on Translate to English to get titleEn, summaryEn and descriptionEn, and optionally the full text (contentEn).

Use cases

• China market & competitor research: what brands, industry bodies and media publish
• LLM / RAG datasets: full-text Chinese articles with metadata
• PR & media monitoring on WeChat for any keyword
• Find official accounts in a niche (account name + ID + biz)
