EveryData platform API
VK API
VK video search results and posts from a known wall are the VK objects documented here; 2 actions including `video_search`, `user_posts` keep VK selectors and outputs separate.
On VK, `video_search` handles video-search results through `keyword`, while `user_posts` handles posts from a known account through `username`; neither VK action receives undeclared filters.

What does each VK action accept?
Each answer below pairs one callable action with its real inputs. Parameter meanings and allowed values are action-specific; a familiar name does not carry the same meaning across every platform.
Official sources are linked only to clarify the platform term beside them. They do not imply platform authorization or endorsement, and they do not add official-site features to the EveryInfra API contract.
What do the VK video_search parameters mean?
Search VK with the video_search action. Accepts these parameters: keyword. Returns these fields: text, like_count, cover_image_url, and media_type.
keywordRequired- Specifies the search query for the video_search action. This parameter only searches videos; it does not perform general text searches across wall posts, groups, or user profiles.VK Official Schema: Video Duration and Owning EntityThe official VK video object distinguishes video ID, `owner_id`, and uploading user, while defining duration in seconds. This explains video fields; it does not imply that this endpoint supports other capabilities in the official schema.Checked
What do the VK user_posts parameters mean?
Retrieve public posts from VK. Accepts these parameters: username. Returns these fields: author_avatar, repost_count, posted_at, and text.
usernameRequired- Identifies the target public profile or community for the user_posts action. Accepts a short name, a numeric club ID, a numeric owner ID, or a full profile/wall URL (e.g., vk.com links), rather than just personal user handles.VK Official Schema: Individual and Community Wall PostsThe official wall.get endpoint defines objects as individual or community walls and explains short address usage. This clarifies the entity semantics of username; it does not treat official parameters, authentication, or write methods as capabilities of this endpoint.Checked
How to use the VK API
- 01Read the public catalog and choose a platform action.
- 02Send the platform, action, and required parameters to POST /api/v1/social.
- 03Handle a synchronous result or poll the returned job ID when the selected action is asynchronous.
- 04Store the structured response fields needed by your application.
curl -X POST https://api.everyinfra.com/api/v1/social \ -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{"platform":"vk","action":"video_search","params":{"keyword":"<keyword>"}}'
VK API questions
What can I retrieve with the VK API?
Set platform to vk. The current catalog lists video search and posts by user. These action names identify different VK objects or views; they are not interchangeable search modes.
Which input starts a VK `video_search` request?
Specifies the search query for the video_search action. This parameter only searches videos; it does not perform general text searches across wall posts, groups, or user profiles. Send it as keyword inside params.
Which fields can VK `video_search` return?
Its declared schema includes title, text, media_type, and duration_sec. A declared field can still be absent from an individual source record, and every other action has its own field list.
Does every VK action return immediately?
No assumption is needed: this page labels each action's delivery mode. The current catalog contains sync delivery; poll a returned job ID only for an action labeled asynchronous.
