How health is measured
  • Health = the share of calls that returned data, in percent. Empty results, failures and unknown outcomes do not count as returning data.
  • Levels: 90% and above is healthy, 70% and above is available, 40% and above is limited; anything lower is mostly down.
  • A period (the last 24 hours, one hour or one day) gets a score only once it has at least 50 calls. Periods with fewer calls show as normal: a few failures among a handful of calls do not mean the API is down.
  • Calls include real customer calls and our own daily probe calls. Request errors (wrong parameters, no balance) are excluded.
  • Average time counts only calls that completed normally: response time for sync calls, acceptance to completion for async ones.

Use the subtitles action on Bilibili. Accepts these parameters: url. Returns these fields: title, video_id, duration_seconds, and segments.

Price $0.56 per 1,000 requests ($0.000556 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.

Request parameters

NameInTypeRequiredDefaultDescription
AuthorizationheaderstringYes-Bearer followed by your API key. Create it in the console; never put it in a URL or a code repository.
platformbodystringYesbilibiliPlatform identifier, fixed value.
actionbodystringYessubtitlesCapability identifier, fixed value.
urlbody.paramsNot declaredYes-Specifies a full Bilibili video URL, formatted as https://www.bilibili.com/video/<BVID>. The url parameter fetches video comments on comments, first-part timed comments on danmaku, and audio transcription on subtitles, treating each as distinct text sources. The danmaku action must be able to extract a valid BV ID from the provided path.

Response example

Real response

Response fields

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

FieldMeaning
video_idKeeps the platform's own meaning
titleTitle. null when the platform has no titles (for example text-only posts).
author_nameAuthor's display name.
duration_secondsDuration in seconds. null for content that is not video or audio.
languageContent language code (for example zh, en) as judged by the platform; it can be wrong.
textBody text with HTML removed. Long text may be truncated.
platformSource platform identifier, the same as platform in the request (for example xiaohongshu, tiktok).
segmentsKeeps the platform's own meaning

Errors and billing

401
Missing or invalid key. Authentication runs before parameter checks, so unauthenticated requests never see the parameter schema.
422
Wrong parameter name or value. The error lists the parameters and allowed values this capability accepts and the closest match; it happens before any charge.
402
Insufficient balance. Top up first.
429
Per-minute request limit reached. Wait for Retry-After and try again.
503
Could not complete right now. Any charge for the call goes back to your balance automatically, and the billing receipt in the response states the actual outcome, including when it is not yet known. Do not resend blindly.
200 empty
The request completed without data and is not charged (billing.reason = empty_result_refunded).

  • Bilibili: Official Announcement on Upgrading AV Numbers to BV Identifiers ↗

    Bilibili's 2020 announcement defines BV identifiers as video submission IDs containing numbers and case-sensitive letters, distinguishing them from pure numeric AV numbers. This reference only explains video identifier types; this API accepts links per the format above and does not guarantee parsing for all legacy links or multi-part video segments.
