## 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.

Long arrays and strings are shortened here. Real responses are complete.

## One schema on 9 platforms.

The [response reference](https://socialtap.dev/docs/reference/rumble/comments/index.md#response) lists every field, its type and when it is `null`. [See the full schema](https://socialtap.dev/resources/comment/index.md).

- ### 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.

- **`platform`string**: Platform ID (tiktok, youtube, …).
- **`id`string**: Platform-native comment ID (string; Reddit with its t1_ prefix).
- **`post_id`string**: ID of the post commented on (equals post.id).
- **`parent_id`string**: ID of the comment this replies to; null for top-level comments.
- **`url`string**: Permalink, when the platform has one.
- **`text`string**: Comment body as plain text.
- **`author`object**: 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_at`string**: 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.

More in the [API reference](https://socialtap.dev/docs/reference/rumble/comments/index.md).
