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 video from iQIYI. Accepts these parameters: url and scrape_additional_info. Returns these fields: title, collect_count, category, and heat_count.

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

Name	In	Type	Required	Default	Description
`Authorization`	header	`string`	Yes	-	Bearer followed by your API key. Create it in the console; never put it in a URL or a code repository.
`platform`	body	`string`	Yes	`iqiyi`	Platform identifier, fixed value.
`action`	body	`string`	Yes	`video`	Capability identifier, fixed value.
`url`	body.params	Not declared	Yes	-	Accepts a full iQIYI video playback URL (v_.html format) for the video action. Series/album pages (a_.html) and creator profile links are not supported; use the album action with keyword for series discovery.
`scrape_additional_info`	body.params	Not declared	No	-	Controls whether iQIYI search results include additional uploader and engagement information. Pass a JSON boolean; the default is true. Setting it to false disables that extra lookup but does not change the EveryInfra API price.

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. 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.

Field	Meaning
`id`	The record's unique ID on the source platform. Unique only within one platform; IDs can repeat across platforms.
`url`	Link to the record on the source platform.
`title`	Title. null when the platform has no titles (for example text-only posts).
`text`	Body text with HTML removed. Long text may be truncated.
`category`	Category name in the source platform's own taxonomy, not normalized across platforms.
`category_id`	Keeps the platform's own meaning
`duration_seconds`	Duration in seconds. null for content that is not video or audio.
`heat_count`	Keeps the platform's own meaning
`rating`	Rating. 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_scale`	Maximum of rating in the same row: 5 for five-star scales, 10 for ten-point scales. Present only when the row has a rating.
`rating_count`	Number of people who rated. 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.
`collect_count`	Saves or favorites. null means not disclosed, not 0.
`album_id`	Keeps the platform's own meaning
`album_title`	Keeps the platform's own meaning
`album_url`	Keeps the platform's own meaning
`album_episode_count`	Keeps the platform's own meaning
`image_url`	Image link. Capabilities with several images may return an image_urls array.
`wide_image_url`	Keeps the platform's own meaning
`author_name`	Author's display name.
`author_id`	Author's unique ID on the source platform.
`author_avatar_url`	Keeps the platform's own meaning
`author_follower_count`	Author's follower count. null means not disclosed.
`author_video_count`	Keeps the platform's own meaning
`author_location`	Keeps the platform's own meaning
`author_org`	Keeps the platform's own meaning
`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.
`platform`	Source platform identifier, the same as platform in the request (for example xiaohongshu, tiktok).
`cast`	Keeps 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).
