# Dailymotion User API

A profile with its counts, images and links, by user id, username or profile URL.

`GET /v1/dailymotion/users/{user}` takes a user id (`x2znl3e`), a username (`abinashkathariya`) or a profile URL. Usernames are not case-sensitive; ids are. On `found`, `data.user` carries `id`, `username`, `screenName`, `url`, `description`, `status`, `country`, `city`, `language`, `createdAt`, `verified` and `partner`, with `counts` for views, videos, playlists, followers, following, reposts and community members. `links` holds the website and social pages the user lists, `avatars` has nine sizes and `cover` has five. `featuredVideo` is the video pinned on the profile when there is one.

`extras` adds `tagline`, `accountType`, `isArtist`, `liveStreamingEnabled` and `premiumCreator`, with `extras.status` saying whether they are included. A deleted user answers `lookupStatus: not_found` with `user: null`, while the user's lists can still be found because Dailymotion keeps them available.

## FAQ

### Can I pass a username or a profile URL?

Both work. Use a user id like x2znl3e, a username like abinashkathariya, or a full profile URL. A leading @ is dropped, and a URL is reduced to its first path segment.

### What does extras.status mean?

included means the fields are present. not_offered means the user has no channel page details. unavailable means they are temporarily unavailable and empty while the rest of the profile is complete; a later request usually fills them.

### What happens for a deleted user?

lookupStatus is not_found and user is null. Their videos, followers, following and playlists can still answer found with rows, so do not infer a deleted user from a working list.

### How many credits does a user lookup cost?

Pricing is documented on the operation in the API registry (shown on this page). Confirm on every response with meta.creditsCharged: that field is the billing source of truth.
