FAQ

How do I add the Kuaishou MCP server to Claude Code?

Run claude mcp add --transport http qovia https://api.qovia.ai/mcp. Finding and reading endpoints needs no key; to call one, add your API key as an Authorization: Bearer header in the MCP config (see the MCP docs). A new account gets 50 trial calls.

What can an AI do with the Kuaishou MCP server?

It exposes four tools: search_endpoints, get_endpoint, call_endpoint and get_account. The AI searches for "kuaishou" with search_endpoints, picks from the 5 endpoints, and pulls videos, comments and replies, a creator's hot videos and the hot board with call_endpoint. Calls are billed exactly like the HTTP API.

What Kuaishou data can I get?

Single videos (caption, author, play, like, comment, share and save counts, hashtags, publish time, duration and cover), first-level comments and their replies (with IP location and a hot-comment flag), a creator's hot videos most liked first, and the Kuaishou hot board (about 50 words with rank, heat and label).

Where do I find a Kuaishou video's ID?

The video and comment endpoints take the video's eid, the part of its link (for example 3xry7mhn2ywjyqg); the numeric photo_id is not accepted. A creator's hot videos take the numeric uid, which is the author.uid of a video or comment record.

How do I page through Kuaishou comments?

Pass back the previous page's cursor until has_more is false. First-level comments come about 30 on the first page and about 20 after; replies are about 12 a page and come from the comment replies endpoint.

Do I need a Kuaishou account or cookies?

No. All you need is a Qovia API key: no accounts, cookies, proxies or request signing to maintain.

How is it billed?

Prepaid and per call: only successful calls that return data are charged, and empty results, errors and timeouts are not. Every response says what it cost (meta.charged_usd). Each endpoint's price is in the API reference.

What should I keep in mind when using the data?

Qovia provides a data API service and claims no ownership of the underlying content. Use the data under applicable law and Kuaishou's platform rules; see our terms of service.

Your agent only knows what you give it

Give it Douyin, Xiaohongshu (RedNote), WeChat and product reviews: structured, per call, nothing charged for failures.
