Comments on a video
Top-level comments on one video (no replies). Takes a TikTok video, YouTube video or Instagram post by url or id (exactly one); the format is not checked. One platform page per call. Follow pagination.next_cursor for more; page sizes are set by the platform. Live data fetched at request time, not stored by Virlo. Typical latency is a few seconds, up to about 25 s. 1 credit ($0.01) per call, including an empty page. Errors (400, 404, 5xx) are not billed.
