Browse the videos on Bilibili's Popular page, 20 per page, each with BV and av IDs, views, likes, danmaku, coins, favorites, shares, comments, duration, category, uploader and upload IP region. recommend_reason carries the tag Bilibili puts on a video, such as one for passing a million views, in Chinese as shown. Pass next_page_token back as page_token for the next page; the list changes through the day.

Price $0.81 per 1,000 requests ($0.000806 per call). Failed calls and empty results are not charged. Synchronous. For slow jobs add "mode": "async" to the body, take the job_id and poll.

AI prompt

Please help me write a data collection script with the EveryInfra Bilibili Popular endpoint (bilibili/popular).

How the endpoint works:
- Request: POST https://api.everyinfra.com/api/v1/social with the header Authorization: Bearer <API key>. Read the key from the EVERYINFRA_API_KEY environment variable and never hard-code it.
- In the request body, set platform to bilibili and action to popular, and put the parameters inside params.
- No required parameters.
- Optional parameters:
  - page_token: Page token for popular: pass back the previous response's next_page_token exactly as received to get the next 20 videos; leave it out to start at the first page. Tokens last 24 hours and each page is one call.
- Returns a list of records. Main fields of each record: id, aid (The video's numeric av ID (popular)), url, title, text, duration_seconds, duration_sec, view_count, like_count, comment_count, danmaku_count (Danmaku (on-screen comment) count), favorite_count (Favorites); 23 fields in total, full list at https://api.everyinfra.com/api/v1/social/catalog?platform=bilibili.
- Example request body:
{
  "platform": "bilibili",
  "action": "popular",
  "params": {}
}
- Price: $0.81 per 1,000 requests; failed and empty results are not charged.
- For dozens or hundreds of targets, add "mode": "async" to the body: you get a job_id at once and poll GET https://api.everyinfra.com/api/v1/jobs/{job_id} for the result.
- On 422, fix the request using the suggested parameter names and allowed values in the error; on 429 or 503, wait for Retry-After and try again.

Before writing code, ask me which targets I need, how many, which fields, and what output format I want; then confirm the plan and the rough cost with me.

Response fields

Business data is in results. The table lists the fields a record can contain; values the platform does not show are never made up.

Field	Meaning
`id`	The record's unique ID on the platform. Unique only within one platform; IDs can repeat across platforms.
`aid`	The video's numeric av ID (popular); it names the same video as the BV ID in id.
`url`	Link to the record on the platform.
`title`	Title. null when the platform has no titles (for example text-only posts).
`text`	Body text with HTML removed, returned in full and never cut short (on a few platforms the list results themselves carry only an excerpt; the platform's field notes say so).
`duration_seconds`	Duration in seconds. null for content that is not video or audio.
`duration_sec`	Keeps the platform's own meaning
`view_count`	Views or plays. null means not disclosed, not 0.
`like_count`	Likes. null means the platform or this capability does not disclose it; it is not 0.
`comment_count`	Comments. null means not disclosed, not 0.
`danmaku_count`	Danmaku (on-screen comment) count. A Bilibili-specific engagement signal; read it alongside comment_count.
`favorite_count`	Favorites.
`coin_count`	Coins given. Coins are a paid form of approval on Bilibili and weigh more than likes.
`share_count`	Shares. null means not disclosed, not 0.
`thumbnail_url`	Thumbnail link, lower resolution than image_url.
`posted_at`	Publish time in ISO 8601, UTC (for example 2026-08-07T12:34:56+00:00). Non-standard strings from the platform are passed through as is, so parse defensively. null means the platform does not disclose it.
`category`	Category name in the platform's own taxonomy, not normalized across platforms.
`author_name`	Author's display name.
`author_id`	Author's unique ID on the platform.
`author_url`	Link to the author's profile on the platform.
`author_avatar_url`	Uploader avatar link (popular).
`recommend_reason`	The tag Bilibili puts on a Popular video, as shown (popular), for example for passing a million views or many shares; absent when there is none.
`ip_location`	Upload location (popular): the IP region Bilibili shows on the video page, a province or country.
`platform`	Source platform identifier, the same as platform in the request (for example xiaohongshu, tiktok).
