> **For coding agents and LLMs:** This is one page from the Social Fetch docs (markdown export). The sections below mirror the orientation block in [`/llms.txt`](https://www.socialfetch.dev/llms.txt); use [`/llms.json`](https://www.socialfetch.dev/llms.json) when you need a structured operation inventory. The catalog covers documented operations with on-site reference pages. ## This page - **On-site (HTML):** [https://www.socialfetch.dev/docs/api/v1/youtube/videos/comments/get](https://www.socialfetch.dev/docs/api/v1/youtube/videos/comments/get) - **Markdown (.mdx) URL:** [https://www.socialfetch.dev/docs/api/v1/youtube/videos/comments/get.mdx](https://www.socialfetch.dev/docs/api/v1/youtube/videos/comments/get.mdx) ## API base URL and authentication - **API origin (from OpenAPI `servers`):** `https://api.socialfetch.dev` - **Authentication:** send `x-api-key: sfk_...` on `/v1/**` routes unless the operation is explicitly anonymous (check OpenAPI `security`, the [API reference hub](https://www.socialfetch.dev/docs/api.mdx), [`/llms.txt`](https://www.socialfetch.dev/llms.txt), or [`/llms.json`](https://www.socialfetch.dev/llms.json) for each route). - **OpenAPI JSON:** [https://www.socialfetch.dev/openapi.json](https://www.socialfetch.dev/openapi.json) ## Recommended docs entrypoints (this site) - [Documentation overview](https://www.socialfetch.dev/docs.mdx) — top-level orientation (markdown). - [Quickstart](https://www.socialfetch.dev/docs/quickstart.mdx) — authenticate with `x-api-key`, validate auth with `whoami`, and understand the JSON envelope. - [SDK](https://www.socialfetch.dev/docs/sdk.mdx) — official TypeScript SDK guide, including `SocialFetchClient`, `Result`, and `unwrap()`. - [SDK reference](https://www.socialfetch.dev/docs/sdk-reference.mdx) — exhaustive SDK method inventory and route mapping for agents, tooling, and power users. - [Choose the right endpoint](https://www.socialfetch.dev/docs/choose-endpoint.mdx) — task-oriented route selection for smoke tests, profiles, list endpoints, and single-item lookups. - [Capability matrix](https://www.socialfetch.dev/docs/capability-matrix.mdx) — fast comparison of identifiers, pagination, outcomes, media download, and SDK coverage. - [`/llms.json`](https://www.socialfetch.dev/llms.json) — structured machine-readable operation inventory with parameter names, pagination, outcomes, credits, and SDK mapping. - [API reference hub](https://www.socialfetch.dev/docs/api.mdx) — human-friendly index of operations with links into generated pages. - [Errors](https://www.socialfetch.dev/docs/errors.mdx) — shared error envelope and HTTP status guidance. - [Credits](https://www.socialfetch.dev/docs/credits.mdx) — metering, `402`, and planning batch jobs. - Outcome semantics such as `found`, `not_found`, and `private` are documented in [Errors](https://www.socialfetch.dev/docs/errors.mdx) and on operation pages when present in the OpenAPI contract. ## Markdown docs convention - Every docs page has a markdown twin: append **`.mdx`** to the docs pathname (for example `/docs/quickstart` → `/docs/quickstart.mdx`). - Agents that send `Accept: text/markdown` on `/docs/**` HTML URLs may receive markdown directly (same URL, `Vary: Accept`). --- # List YouTube video comments (https://www.socialfetch.dev/docs/api/v1/youtube/videos/comments/get) ## Summary Get comments on a YouTube video. **Tags:** `YouTube` ## HTTP - **Method:** GET - **Path:** `/v1/youtube/videos/comments` - **Base URL:** `https://api.socialfetch.dev` ## Capability summary - **SDK mapping:** `client.youtube.getVideoComments({ url, cursor?, order? })` - **Accepted identifiers:** `url` (query) - **Pagination:** cursor via `cursor`, next cursor: `data.page.nextCursor`, has more: `data.page.hasMore` - **Business outcome field:** `data.lookupStatus` with values `found`, `not_found` ## Credits - **Base:** 1 credit per successful lookup. - **Maximum on success (200):** 1 credit. - **Normalization failure (502):** 1 credit charged. - **Authoritative field:** `meta.creditsCharged`. ## Authentication - **`x-api-key`**: API key (`sfk_...`) ## Parameters ### `url` (query) - **Required:** yes - **Constraints:** type `string`; minLength: 1; maxLength: 4096 - **Description:** Link to the YouTube video whose comments should be listed. ### `cursor` (query) - **Required:** no - **Constraints:** type `string`; minLength: 1 - **Description:** Opaque cursor from a previous response to fetch the next page. ### `order` (query) - **Required:** no - **Constraints:** type `string`; enum: top, newest - **Description:** Comment sort order. `top` returns highest-ranked comments; `newest` returns the most recent comments. ## Pagination This endpoint uses **cursor-based pagination** via the `cursor` query parameter. - Read **hasMore** from `data.page.hasMore`. - When that value is `true`, read **nextCursor** from `data.page.nextCursor` and pass it as the `cursor` query parameter on the **next** request (URL-encode when building a query string). - Omit `cursor` on the **first** request. - Stop when **hasMore** is `false` or **nextCursor** is null (end of list). ## Responses (status codes) - **200**: Comment listing result. Check `data.lookupStatus` for `found` or `not_found`. - **400**: Invalid request - **401**: Missing or invalid API key - **402**: Insufficient credits - **500**: Unexpected or billing error - **502**: Lookup could not be completed from the response (unexpected or invalid data). - **503**: Service temporarily unavailable; safe to retry with backoff. ## Response body (200) Comment listing result. Check `data.lookupStatus` for `found` or `not_found`. ### Field outline - **data** (required) — type `object`.

Machine-readable error codes When an error JSON body is returned, it may include one of these `error.code` values (derived from the OpenAPI schemas for this operation; additional codes may exist at runtime): - `bad_request` ## Error handling & retries Interpret HTTP status codes using the descriptions below. Do not assume a JSON body unless the OpenAPI schema defines one for that status. - **400**: Invalid request **Retry:** Fix the request; retrying the same invalid payload will not help. - **401**: Missing or invalid API key **Retry:** Fix the API key first; retrying without changes will not help. - **402**: Insufficient credits **Retry:** Do not retry without resolving billing/credits (retrying the same request will not help). - **500**: Unexpected or billing error - **502**: Lookup could not be completed from the response (unexpected or invalid data). **Retry:** May be transient; a few retries with backoff are reasonable. - **503**: Service temporarily unavailable; safe to retry with backoff. **Retry:** Usually safe to retry with exponential backoff and jitter. ### Suggested client defaults - Send the API key using the `x-api-key` header on every request. - On `503` (and sometimes `502`), retry with backoff; cap retries and surface a clear error to the user. - On `402`, surface an actionable billing message rather than blind retries. ## Examples ### TypeScript SDK ```typescript import { SocialFetchClient } from "@socialfetch/sdk"; const client = new SocialFetchClient({ apiKey: process.env.SOCIALFETCH_API_KEY!, }); const result = await client.youtube.getVideoComments({ url: "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ", }); if (!result.ok) { console.error(result.error); } else { console.log(result.value.data); } ``` ### Node.js ```javascript const response = await fetch( "https://api.socialfetch.dev/v1/youtube/videos/comments?url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ", { headers: { "x-api-key": "YOUR_API_KEY", } } ); const data = await response.json(); console.log(data); ``` ### cURL ```bash curl "https://api.socialfetch.dev/v1/youtube/videos/comments?url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ" \ -H "x-api-key: YOUR_API_KEY" ``` ### Python ```python import requests response = requests.get( "https://api.socialfetch.dev/v1/youtube/videos/comments?url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ", headers={"x-api-key": "YOUR_API_KEY"}, ) data = response.json() print(data) ``` ### Example: next page (pagination) After a successful response, if pagination is not finished, request the next page using `cursor` (URL-encode when composing the query string): ```javascript const previous = await response.json(); const nextCursor = previous?.data?.page?.nextCursor; const hasMore = previous?.data?.page?.hasMore; if (!hasMore || nextCursor == null) { // no more pages } else { const nextUrl = new URL("https://api.socialfetch.dev/v1/youtube/videos/comments"); nextUrl.searchParams.set("cursor", nextCursor); // optionally preserve sort: nextUrl.searchParams.set("sortBy", "latest"); const nextResponse = await fetch(nextUrl.toString(), { headers: { "x-api-key": "YOUR_API_KEY" }, }); const nextData = await nextResponse.json(); } ```
