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.

Retrieve a public album from iQIYI. Accepts these parameters: keyword, region, language, and lang. Returns these fields: episode_available_count, content_rating, year, and title.

Price $1.39 per 1,000 requests ($0.001389 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.
platformbodystringYesiqiyiPlatform identifier, fixed value.
actionbodystringYesalbumCapability identifier, fixed value.
keywordbody.paramsNot declaredYes-Specifies search terms for the search action, or series, album, and cast-member names for the international album action. The album action does not fetch details directly from album URLs, and available libraries vary by region.
langbody.paramsenumNo-Sets title display language for the album action using compact codes: zhcn, zhtw, enus, jajp, arsa, eses, idid, kokr, msmy, thth, or vivn. This parameter modifies localized metadata labels without requesting video subtitles or altering content library regions.Allowed valuesarsaenusesesididjajpkokrmsmyththvivnzhcnzhtw
languagebody.paramsenumNo-Accepts a compatibility language code for title localization in the album action: zh_cn (default), zh_tw, en_us, id_id, ms_my, th_th, vi_vn, ko_kr, ja_jp, es_es, or ar_sa. When both this parameter and lang are supplied, lang takes precedence; do not mix code formats across the two parameters.Allowed valuesar_saen_uses_esid_idja_jpko_krms_myth_thvi_vnzh_cnzh_tw
regionbody.paramsenumNo-Selects the content library region for the album action: intl (default), vn, th, id, my, tw, ph, sg, kr, or jp. Unrecognized values fall back to intl. This parameter changes the regional media catalog rather than the interface language.Allowed valuesidintljpkrmyphsgthtwvn

Response example

Real response

Captured September 26, 2026 at 08:56 (UTC) by calling this API with the parameters in the code sample above. results and count are that call's real response with personal information (names, handles, avatars, profile links, contact details) removed; the list keeps the first 2. id, billing and quota differ on every call, so only their shape is shown.

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
idThe record's unique ID on the source platform. Unique only within one platform; IDs can repeat across platforms.
urlLink to the record on the source platform.
play_urlKeeps the platform's own meaning
titleTitle. null when the platform has no titles (for example text-only posts).
subtitleKeeps the platform's own meaning
typeRecord type; values depend on the capability (for example video / image / text).
is_seriesKeeps the platform's own meaning
yearKeeps the platform's own meaning
release_dateKeeps the platform's own meaning
duration_secondsDuration in seconds. null for content that is not video or audio.
ratingRating. The scale varies by platform: rating_scale on the same row gives the maximum (usually 5; Booking, Douban, iQIYI and NAVER use 10). Convert with rating_scale before comparing across platforms, or the comparison can come out backwards.
rating_scaleMaximum of rating in the same row: 5 for five-star scales, 10 for ten-point scales. Present only when the row has a rating.
content_ratingKeeps the platform's own meaning
episode_countKeeps the platform's own meaning
episode_available_countKeeps the platform's own meaning
image_urlImage link. Capabilities with several images may return an image_urls array.
episodesKeeps the platform's own meaning
castKeeps the platform's own meaning
platformSource platform identifier, the same as platform in the request (for example xiaohongshu, tiktok).

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).

  • iQIYI International: Regional Copyright Restrictions and Active Library ↗

    iQIYI International help FAQs on copyright restrictions explain that regional licensing may prevent content playback and external search results may not reflect the active library. Therefore, album region options and retrieved metadata do not constitute a playback entitlement guarantee, let alone a method to bypass regional restrictions.
