Frequently asked questions

Do I need a Bilibili account or cookies?

No. The scraper reads Bilibili's public web data anonymously — no login, no cookie, no API key.

What are coins and danmaku?

Coins (硬币) are Bilibili's paid upvotes — a strong quality signal unique to the platform. Danmaku (弹幕) are the bullet comments that scroll over the video; this Actor returns the danmaku count per video.

Can I search by keyword?

Yes. Add keywords under Search keywords in video-details mode; each returns matching videos with their stats.

How do I export a video's comments?

Switch What to scrape to Comments and pass the video URLs — you'll get one row per comment.

Why did an input come back with an error?

The video may be deleted, private or region-locked, or the input wasn't a valid Bilibili video reference. Error rows are not billed.

Is this legal?

The scraper collects only publicly available data. You are responsible for using it in compliance with the laws that apply to you and Bilibili's terms.
