[See the full schema](https://socialtap.dev/resources/post/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 Keywords, matched by Rumble's search against titles and channels. - ### Write one parser Rumble, TikTok, Instagram and 18 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 post ID (string; Instagram shortcode, Reddit with its t3_ prefix). - **`url`string**: Canonical post URL. - **`type`string**: Normalized content shape. New values may be added; treat unknown values as other. - **`platform_type`string**: The platform's own product label, lowercase (reel, short, story, live, tweet, …). - **`title`string**: Headline (YouTube title, Reddit title); null on caption-only platforms. - **`text`string**: Caption, description or body as plain text. - **`language`string**: BCP-47 language of text, when the platform states it.

A count a result doesn't show (no votes or comments yet) is null. Shorts have exact counts. - Rumble serves a limited number of result pages per search, and a walk that reaches it ends with page.end_reason platform_limit. - Search results carry no description: text is null and hashtags and mentions are listed in unknown_fields. The Rumble Video API on the video's link has them. - Rumble's search matches Latin-script keywords, so a query in Cyrillic, Arabic, Hebrew or CJK script finds nothing. Queries Rumble's firewall reads as SQL or script injection are refused with invalid_input. ## 1 credit per page. Failed requests are free.
