Get WeChat Channels collection videos

TikHub tool tikhub-api-wechat-channels-fetch-collection-videos on looot: input fields, $0.01 per call, output shape, and code to run it with curl, JavaScript or Python.

Lists the videos in a WeChat Channels collection. Send topic_id (from fetch_user_collections), and last_buffer from the previous response when down_continue is true. Returns videos with media URL, token and decode_key for download and decryption. Set a 30 second timeout and handle IDs as strings.

Inputs

Name Type Required Description
last_buffer string no Pagination cursor (base64), leave empty for first page
raw boolean no True=raw response; False=simplified parsed structure (recommended for media download)
topic string no Collection name (optional, improves hit rate). Example: “早安中国”
topic_id string yes Collection ID (numeric, from topic_id of fetch_user_collections).
topic_type integer no Collection type, default 16 (align with topic_type from fetch_user_collections)
username string no Creator finder username (optional, improves hit rate)

Output

Shape of the run’s result, the expected shape, not yet checked against real answers:

{ code, docs, time, message, support, time_zone, message_zh, request_id, time_stamp, cache_message }

Run it

Every call needs your API token in LOOOT_TOKEN; Sign in shows how to get one. Each run also needs a new idempotency key, so a retry never pays twice. With wait: 30 the answer comes back inline when the run ends within 30 seconds. Otherwise you get the running run back: poll GET /v1/runs/<runId>.

Example input with placeholder values:

curl -X POST "https://api.looot.ai/v1/runs" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $LOOOT_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "Idempotency-Key: $(uuidgen)" \
  -d '{"endpointId":"tikhub-api-wechat-channels-fetch-collection-videos","input":{"topic_id":"<topic_id>","topic":"早安中国","username":"<username>"},"wait":30}'
const response = await fetch("https://api.looot.ai/v1/runs", {
  method: "POST",
  headers: {
    Authorization: `Bearer ${process.env.LOOOT_TOKEN}`,
    "Content-Type": "application/json",
    "Idempotency-Key": crypto.randomUUID(),
  },
  body: JSON.stringify({
    endpointId: "tikhub-api-wechat-channels-fetch-collection-videos",
    input: {
      topic_id: "<topic_id>",
      topic: "早安中国",
      username: "<username>",
    },
    wait: 30,
  }),
});
const run = await response.json();
console.log(run.status, run.result);
import os
import uuid

import requests

response = requests.post(
    "https://api.looot.ai/v1/runs",
    headers={
        "Authorization": f"Bearer {os.environ['LOOOT_TOKEN']}",
        "Idempotency-Key": str(uuid.uuid4()),
    },
    json={
        "endpointId": "tikhub-api-wechat-channels-fetch-collection-videos",
        "input": {
            "topic_id": "<topic_id>",
            "topic": "早安中国",
            "username": "<username>",
        },
        "wait": 30,
    },
    timeout=90,
)
run = response.json()
print(run["status"], run.get("result"))

To let looot pick among every provider of this job instead, send job:api.wechat-channels.fetch-collection-videos as endpointId; see the job page.
