Kwai API skill

Read public Kwai data as clean JSON. This Kwai API skill returns a creator profile, that creator's posts, or a single video by URL. Kwai is one of the largest short-video platforms in Latin America and South Asia and is poorly served by Western data tools, which is most of the reason this skill exists.

This skill wraps 3 live Kwai endpoints from the ScraperSocial API. Public data only, returned as clean JSON.

When to use this skill

You are researching creators or short-video trends in markets where Kwai has real share.
A user pastes a Kwai link and asks who posted it or what the account is.
You are benchmarking a creator's Kwai presence against their TikTok or Instagram.

Do not use this skill when

You assumed Kwai mirrors TikTok. They are different platforms with different creators; do not present one as a proxy for the other.
You need transcripts or AI summaries. Kwai has three endpoints — profile, posts and a single post. There is no transcript capability here.
You need to post or interact. Read-only.

Setup

bash

export SCRAPERSOCIAL_KEY=sk_live_...   # https://scrapersocial.com/app/keys

Signing up at scrapersocial.com/signup includes 100 free credits, no card required.

Permissions and scope

These scripts do exactly three things and nothing else: read one environment variable (SCRAPERSOCIAL_KEY), send HTTPS requests to https://api.scrapersocial.com (the host is a constant in the code, not configurable), and print JSON. They run as node scripts/<name>.js with no other shell use, no file writes and no persistence. call_endpoint.js accepts only the 3 documented /v1/kwai/ paths in the table below and refuses anything else before a request is made.

Scripts

Script	What it does	Input	Credits
`get_post.js`	Get Kwai post.	url	2 credits
`get_profile.js`	Get Kwai profile.	url	handle
`get_user_posts.js`	List Kwai user posts.	url	handle
`call_endpoint.js`	Call any `/v1/kwai/` endpoint directly	path + params	varies

Every script also accepts --limit, --cursor, --fields, --format and --fresh. --limit is clamped to 50: above that the API returns an async job instead of data.

Example

bash

node skills/kwai-api/scripts/get_profile.js <kwai-handle>

Every response uses the same envelope:

json

{ "data": {}, "meta": { "count": 20, "next_cursor": "..." }, "request_id": "a18e4ef88ad4b00b" }

meta appears on paginated endpoints only. Keep request_id — support traces calls with it.

Endpoints

Endpoint	Input	Returns	Credits	Paginated
`/v1/kwai/post`	url	post	2 credits	no
`/v1/kwai/profile`	url	handle	profile	2 credits
`/v1/kwai/user-posts`	url	handle	post	2 credits per post

Costs shown per item for paginated endpoints, per call otherwise. Failed calls are not charged.

FAQ

What can I get from Kwai?

Three things: get_profile.js for a creator, get_user_posts.js for their posts, and get_post.js for one video. Each costs 2 credits.

Can I transcribe a Kwai video?

Not through this API. Transcripts are available for TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, X and YouTube.

Is this an official Kwai API?

No. ScraperSocial is independent and not affiliated with Kwai or Kuaishou. It returns publicly available data only.
