# Dailymotion Comment Replies API

All replies under one top-level comment, oldest first, in pages of 20.

`GET /v1/dailymotion/videos/{videoId}/comments/{commentId}/replies` returns `lookupStatus`, `total`, `replies[]` and `page`. Each reply carries `id`, `text`, `createdAt`, `kind`, `depth`, `likeCount`, `parentId`, `rootId`, `replyToAuthor`, `timestamps[]` and `author`.

Take `commentId` from `id` on a top-level comment returned by the comments route; it is a base64 id that decodes to `Comment:` and a hex value. Replies come oldest first and a page holds 20. Dailymotion treats an unknown comment id and a thread with no replies the same way, with no rows and no error, so `found` here describes the video. The video id must still match the thread.

## FAQ

### Where do I get the comment id?

From the id field of a top-level comment returned by GET /v1/dailymotion/videos/{videoId}/comments. It is a base64 string such as Q29tbWVudDo2YTVlYWRkNWNhMWU1ZTMzYzdmNzQ2OGI=.

### Why is the reply list empty for an id I made up?

Dailymotion treats an unknown comment id and a thread with no replies the same way, with no error and no rows. lookupStatus found is about the video, not proof that the comment exists. To prove a comment exists, read it from the video's comments pages before requesting its replies.

### Which order are replies in?

Oldest first. A page holds 20 replies, and page selects the next page. Each page is a separate request.

### How much does a replies page 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. Each paginated page is a separate billed request.
