ScrapeSocial API

One API for public data from 25 platforms. Every endpoint is a GET request that returns JSON in the same envelope: success, credits_remaining, credits_charged and the platform's data.

01Authentication

Send your API key in the x-api-key header with every request. Your key is on the dashboard; rotating it stops the old key at once.
