# Kick VOD API

One video by its UUID, with duration, views, categories and channel, and a typed restricted state for subscriber-only VODs.

`GET /v1/kick/videos/{videoId}` takes the VOD UUID and returns `data.video` with `id`, `title`, `url`, `views`, `durationSeconds`, `startedAt`, `isLive`, `isMature`, `isPrivate`, `isPruned`, `status`, `isSubscriberOnly`, `playbackUrl`, `thumbnailUrl`, `categories` and a `channel` summary.

The lookup status has three values. `found` means a public VOD. `restricted` means the VOD exists but is subscriber-only; its metadata is returned and `playbackUrl` is null. `not_found` means the UUID does not resolve and `video` is null. `thumbnailUrl` is the public thumbnail image, null when the VOD is restricted or none is available.

## FAQ

### How do I get a Kick VOD by id?

Call GET /v1/kick/videos/{videoId} with the UUID, for example 5b15049f-26ec-4ebe-9c65-c1719760b933. The response is data.video on found, with data.lookupStatus telling you which state you got.

### What does lookupStatus: restricted mean?

The VOD exists but only the channel's subscribers can watch it. Social Fetch returns its public metadata, sets isSubscriberOnly to true and leaves playbackUrl null. It is not a failure.

### How do I get a VOD thumbnail?

thumbnailUrl is the VOD's public thumbnail image. It is null only when the VOD is restricted or no thumbnail is available.

### How many credits does a VOD 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.
