Input
Second priority, optional. `exportId` from search results (must start with `export/`). Search results often only carry `exportId` without a plain object_id — pass export_id directly in that case (it expires, use it soon).
Highest priority, optional. Video objectId (numeric), e.g. `14941130915890399732`. Obtainable from the video `id` of `fetch_user_videos` / `fetch_collection_videos`.
Optional. `feedNonceId` (numeric) from search results, pairs with the above to improve hit rate.
Optional, default True. True=raw response; False=simplified parsed structure (recommended for media download).
Last, optional. Channels share URL (`https://weixin.qq.com/sph/…`), e.g. `https://weixin.qq.com/sph/AH3sCoIPhH`. Used only when both object_id and export_id are empty.

Questions

FAQ

How do I use the WeChat Channels Video Detail API?

Send a POST request to https://api.sandbase.ai/v1/api/wechat-channels/v2/video-detail with your SandBase API key in the Authorization header (Bearer) and the parameters as a JSON body. You can also try it in the Playground on this page without writing code.

How much does the WeChat Channels Video Detail API cost?

$0.01 per call. Every organization gets 100 free calls per UTC day, shared across eligible SandBase APIs including this one; after that each call is billed at this price from your SandBase balance. There is no subscription.

What parameters does the WeChat Channels Video Detail API accept?

No parameters are required. Optional: export_id (any), object_id (any), object_nonce_id (any), raw (boolean) and share_url (any). The Parameters table and the Playground on this page list every field.

What does the WeChat Channels Video Detail API return?

A JSON response returned in the same HTTP request (synchronous).

Do I need a WeChat Channels developer account or API key?

No. WeChat Channels Video Detail runs through SandBase, so one SandBase API key covers this endpoint and every other API and model in the catalog. You do not need to apply for WeChat Channels API access separately.
