WeChat Channels Video Search

POST/v1/api/wechat-search/v2/search-videos

Search WeChat Channels videos specifically (`video` vertical), with the result page's "duration" filter, "relevance/available/most-liked" sort, and "time" dropdown. Equivalent to universal search `/fetch_search` (`business_type=video`) plus filters; all filters are verified to work. Price: $0.01 per request ⏱️ Due to WeChat server latency, this endpoint responds slowly; please set your client request timeout to 30 seconds — a timeout that is too small may result in being billed without receiving the response. ⚠️ Large-integer ID precision: IDs such as `docID` / `feedNonceId` in the response are 64-bit big integers beyond JavaScript's safe-integer range (2^53-1). Always receive / pass such IDs as strings (parse JSON with json-bigint or read them as text), never through JS `Number`. Swagger UI rounds the trailing digits of huge integers in its docs view — this is expected and does not affect the actual data returned by the API.

Request body

Call this sync operation at its vendor-qualified URL. The model identity is encoded in the path; only operation-specific input fields belong in the request body.

Optional<string | null>cursor

Optional. Pagination cursor, same usage as universal search `/fetch_search`. Leave empty for the first page; for the next page pass back the `cursor` from the previous response (repeat the same `duration` / `sort` / `publish_time`).

Optional<integer | string>duration

Optional, default `all`. Duration tier (Channels video only) — `all`/0 / `short`/1 (<5min) / `medium`/2 (5-10min) / `long`/3 (20min+); string key or integer, invalid values rejected (400).

Default: all

stringkeywordrequired

Search keyword (1-100 chars)

Length: 1 to 100

Optional<integer>offset

Optional, default 0 (>=0). Pass `0` for the first page; use `cursor` to paginate (offset alone does not work).

Minimum: 0

Default: 0

Optional<integer | string>publish_time

Optional, default `all`. Publish time — `all`/0 / `day`/1 / `week`/2 / `half_year`/3; string key or integer, invalid values rejected (400).

Default: all

Optional<boolean>raw

Optional, default True. True=raw search response; False=simplified parsing.

Default: true

Optional<integer | string>sort

Optional, default `default`. Sort — `default`/0 (relevance) / `latest`/1 (newest) / `hot`/2 (most liked); string key or integer, invalid values rejected (400).

Default: default
