Overview

What it does

Scrape posts and profile data from Weibo, China's largest microblogging platform. Returns post text, publish time, repost, comment and like counts, attached images and profile details including follower counts and verification status. Weibo blocks non China IPs at the connection layer, so a China residential proxy is handled as part of the run.

FAQ

Common questions

Why does this need a China proxy? +

Weibo refuses connections from outside China before the request reaches its application layer, so the run times out rather than returning an error. The actor routes through China residential IPs so requests land.

What do I pass in? +

Weibo numeric user IDs. Each one returns that account's posts up to your per profile cap, and optionally a profile record with follower and verification details.

How does pricing work? +

Pay per result at $3.00 per 1,000 on the free plan, falling to $2.25 per 1,000 on higher Apify plans. Posts and profile rows are priced the same.
