Fetch Posts by URLs

Retrieve detailed information for multiple posts by providing their respective URLs. This endpoint extracts metadata, content, and relevant engagement metrics associated with each specified URL.

Billing metadata: successful billable responses include the X-Desearch-Cost-Usd, X-Desearch-Usage-Count, X-Desearch-Service, and X-Desearch-Currency headers. JSON object responses also include optional cost_usd, usage_count, service, and currency fields. For example, usage_count=10 at $0.015 / 1,000 resolves to cost_usd=0.00015. JSON arrays, text, and streaming responses keep their body shape and expose billing metadata only through headers.
