## Pricing

from $2.20 / 1,000 results

This Actor is paid per event. You are not charged for the Apify platform usage, but only a fixed price for specific events.
Since this Actor supports Apify Store discounts, the price gets lower the higher subscription plan you have.

## What's an Apify Actor?

An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. It has two run modes.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.

Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md.

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below.

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).

# README

## Bilibili Scraper – B站 Videos, UP主, Rankings & Comments

> **TubeText** · Social, apps & trends · Pay per result. No login. Ready for AI agents. [All tools](https://apify.com/tubetext)

### Quick start (no coding)

![Bilibili Scraper quick start: click Try for free, paste your input, click Start, export to Excel](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/LMSlay/tubetext-assets/main/bilibili-scraper-quickstart.gif)

1. Click **Try for free** at the top of this page. A free Apify account is enough – it includes monthly credit.
2. In **Search videos by keyword**, paste Chinese or English keywords, one per line (like `瑜伽` or `minecraft`).
3. Click **Start**. Usually done in 10–30 seconds.
4. When it says **Succeeded**, open the **Output** tab and click **Export** → **Excel** (or CSV). One row per video: views, likes, coins, favorites, danmaku, comments, tags and the creator.

**Cost:** $0.003 per result – 100 videos ≈ $0.30. Comments add $0.0005 each.

**Common mistakes**

- Want what's trending instead of a search → turn on **Popular board (热门)** or **Site-wide ranking (排行榜)**.
- Want creators' followers → paste `space.bilibili.com/…` links in **Video or creator links**, or use **Search creators (UP主) by keyword**.
- b23.tv share links work – paste them as they are.
- Want all of a creator's videos → paste their `space.bilibili.com/…` link and set **Uploads per creator link**.
- Want the bullet comments (弹幕) → set **Danmaku (弹幕) per video** ($0.0005 each).

**Questions or problems?** [Open an issue](https://apify.com/tubetext/bilibili-scraper/issues) (we read every one). **Need a custom version?** Ask in an issue or [email us](mailto:tubettext@gmail.com) – we build it as a private Actor on Apify.

### Use from Claude, Cursor or any MCP client

Add `https://mcp.apify.com?tools=tubetext/bilibili-scraper` as a remote MCP server and sign in to Apify (Claude: **Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector**). Claude Code:

```bash
claude mcp add --transport http tubetext "https://mcp.apify.com?tools=tubetext/bilibili-scraper"
```

Then ask, for example: *"Search Bilibili for '机械键盘' and list the top 20 videos with views and uploader."* or *"Get today's Bilibili top-100 ranking with views and likes."*

🆓 **Free to try:** Apify's free plan includes $5 of usage every month, no credit card needed – enough for about 1,600 Bilibili results with this tool.

**What you get** – real output from a test run, shortened. One row per video:

| Title | Creator | Views | Likes | Danmaku |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2026.01.12 【Breathe and Flow】试试这个战士2式挑战… | 我叫阿搬 | 50,835 | 949 | 8 |
| 10分钟伸展燃烧有氧运动！适合冬季懒人舒展身体和取暖燃脂升温！【周六野】 | 周六野Zoey | 1,996,622 | 35,617 | 7,747 |
| 10分钟美腿拉伸运动，变直变长，改善腿型！【周六野Zoey】 | 周六野Zoey | 4,034,960 | 91,422 | 21,454 |

Scrape **Bilibili (哔哩哔哩, B站)**, China's biggest video community for young audiences, without logging in. Search videos by keyword, pull the **Popular board** and the **top-100 ranking**, get full **video stats** (views, likes, coins, favorites, shares, danmaku, comments, tags) and **creator (UP主) profiles** (followers, total likes, video count, verification). Built for China market research, brand and trend monitoring, KOL/creator discovery, and AI datasets. **$3 per 1,000 results.**

### What you can scrape

- 🔍 **Keyword search** – Chinese or English keywords, up to 1,000 videos each. Sort by relevance, newest, most viewed, most favorited or most danmaku, and filter by video length.
- 🔥 **Popular board (热门)** and **site-wide ranking (排行榜, top 100)** – what is trending on Bilibili right now, with full stats.
- 🎬 **Video links** – full stats and tags for any `bilibili.com/video/BV…` link.
- 👤 **Creators (UP主)** – by profile link (`space.bilibili.com/<id>`), numeric ID or keyword search: followers, following, likes received, videos, level, verified title.
- 📼 **A creator's uploads** – set *Uploads per creator link* (up to 1,000) and every `space.bilibili.com/<id>` link also lists that creator's own videos as Bilibili lists them (recent first), with views, danmaku, comments, duration, publish date, cover and an `isCollab` flag for co-created videos ($0.003 per video).
- 💬 **Top comments (optional)** – comment text, likes, replies and time. Commenter names are not collected.
- 🎞️ **Danmaku (弹幕) text (optional)** – up to 3,000 bullet comments per video with `text`, `timeInVideo`, `sentAt` and `mode` in `danmakuItems` (newest kept, sorted by video time). Sender IDs are not collected.

### Input example

```json
{
  "keywords": ["瑜伽", "露营"],
  "sort": "most_viewed",
  "maxResultsPerKeyword": 100,
  "urls": ["https://space.bilibili.com/946974"],
  "includeRanking": true
}
```

### Output example

  "rank": 1,
  "bvid": "BV1kqrvBuEve",
  "url": "https://www.bilibili.com/video/BV1kqrvBuEve",

  "category": "健身",
  "tags": ["我叫阿搬", "拉伸放松", "普拉提"],
  "queryTotalResults": 1000
}
```

A creator from a profile link:

```json
{
  "input": "https://space.bilibili.com/946974",
  "status": "ok",
  "type": "creator",
  "mid": 946974,
  "url": "https://space.bilibili.com/946974",

}
```

Ranking and Popular rows and video-link rows also include `coins`, `shares` and `description`; video-link rows add `tags`. `status` is `ok`, `skipped` (video or creator not found or removed – free), `no_results` or `error` (free). In Excel/CSV export, choose the **Videos** or **Creators (UP主)** view for clean columns.

### Pricing

Pay per event:

- **$3.00 per 1,000 results** – one video or creator row (cheaper on higher Apify plans: down to $2.20).
- **$0.50 per 1,000 comments or danmaku** – only when you turn them on (*Top comments per video*, *Danmaku (弹幕) per video*).
- Failed, unavailable and duplicate items are free.

Example: 10 keywords × 100 videos = 1,000 results ≈ **$3.00**.

### Tips and limits

- **Up to 1,000 videos per keyword** (Bilibili's own limit: 50 pages of 20). Pages can overlap a little, so a request for 50 may return 45–50 unique videos.
- **Comments**: visitors who are not logged in see at most 3 top comments per video, so expect up to 3. You only pay for comments delivered.
- **Transcripts**: every row has a plain `url`. To turn the videos' speech into Chinese text, pass this run's dataset to our [Bilibili Video Transcript](https://apify.com/tubetext/bilibili-video-transcript) Actor – with optional English summaries.
- **Monitoring**: schedule a daily run with `includeRanking` or your keywords sorted by `newest`, and compare runs to spot rising videos and creators.
- **Integrations**: call it from the API, n8n, Make or Zapier, or from AI agents through Apify's MCP server.

### FAQ

**Do I need a Bilibili account or cookies?** No. The Actor only reads public pages and public endpoints, without logging in.

**Can I search in English?** Yes, but most Bilibili content is in Chinese, so Chinese keywords return far more relevant videos.

**Does it get danmaku (bullet comments) text or video files?** Danmaku text yes – set *Danmaku (弹幕) per video* (up to 3,000, $0.50 per 1,000). Videos are not downloaded.

**Is this legal?** The Actor only collects publicly visible data without logging in, and does not collect commenter names or IDs. You are responsible for how you use the data (copyright, privacy and Bilibili's terms).

**Can I cap what a run costs?** Yes – set *Maximum cost per run* in the run options. The run stops cleanly when the next item would go over it: you are never charged more, and you get a clear "stopped at your limit" status message.
