Rumble Comments API. Comments and replies, page by page.

Comments and replies on a video or live stream. We handle the proxies, blocks and platform changes.

Rumble Comments API at a glance

Returns the public comments on a Rumble video, short or live stream, replies included, a page at a time, newest first or by likes. Each has its text, posting time, likes and dislikes, reply count, the comment a reply answers, a permalink, and the commenter's username, name, avatar and badges, with whether the video's own channel wrote it. Accepts any Rumble video link, embed links included, or a video ID.

One schema on 9 platforms.

The response reference lists every field, its type and when it is null. See the full schema.

  • Null means unknown

    A field Rumble doesn't show is null, never zero or an empty string, so a real zero always means zero.

  • What it accepts

    Rumble video, short or live stream URL (rumble.com/v…-title.html, /shorts/v…, /share/v…, /embed/v…/) or a video ID (v…).

  • Write one parser

    Rumble, TikTok, Instagram and 6 more platforms answer in these fields, so the code that reads one reads them all.

platformstring
Platform ID (tiktok, youtube, …).
idstring
Platform-native comment ID (string; Reddit with its t1_ prefix).
post_idstring
ID of the post commented on (equals post.id).
parent_idstring
ID of the comment this replies to; null for top-level comments.
urlstring
Permalink, when the platform has one.
textstring
Comment body as plain text.
authorobject
The commenting account. An account the platform no longer names (a deleted account) has a null id and username and the platform's label as display_name (Reddit: [deleted]).
published_atstring
When the comment was posted, RFC 3339 UTC. Where the platform shows only a relative time ("3 weeks ago"), the latest time that label allows (the fetch time minus the stated amount), listed in approximate_fields.

What teams build with the Rumble Comments API.

  • Track audience reactions to videos and streams

  • Monitor new comments since a date

  • Analyze whole threads, replies included

  • Build comment datasets for research

Good to know before you build.

  • Replies are included, and parent_id names the comment a reply answers. Sorted newest, comments and replies are mixed in time order; sorted popular, each comment is followed by its replies.
  • Rumble shows comment times to the minute, so published_at is exact to the minute and listed in approximate_fields.
  • Rumble's comment count for a video (on its page and in the Rumble Video API) includes comments it no longer lists, so a full walk can return fewer.
  • metrics.reply_count is Rumble's own count of a comment's replies and can exceed the replies returned, for the same reason.
  • author.id is null: Rumble's comments name the commenter by username only (author.username is user/<name>, which the Rumble Channel API takes).
  • Videos whose comments Rumble shows only to signed-in viewers or buyers return private_or_unavailable.

Questions about the Rumble Comments API.

How much does the Rumble Comments API cost?
A page of up to 500 comments and replies costs 1 credit. Every successful page is charged, empty pages included. SocialTap credits cost $0.75–$1.97 per 1,000, depending on the plan or pack.
How do I get the next page?
Repeat the same request with cursor set to page.next_cursor from the previous response, keeping the other parameters. When page.has_more is false there are no more pages. Cursors expire after 24 hours.
