Rumble channel or user: a bare name (Bongino: a channel, else the user of that name), c/<name> for a channel or user/<name> for a user, any channel or user link with any tab after it (rumble.com/c/Bongino, rumble.com/c/Bongino/videos, rumble.com/user/vivafrei/about, the root rumble.com/Bongino link), or a channel's id as this API returns it (_c276782) or its c/c-<channel id> name (c/c-276782, which every channel has). A user's _u… id is refused: Rumble's public pages cannot look a user up by ID, so send its name. Names are case-insensitive.
ExampleBongino
handle takes Rumble profile links; another kind of link, or another platform's, fails free with invalid_input. Unknown parameters are rejected with a suggestion, never ignored (Requests).
Parameters every endpoint accepts
Accept a cached response up to this many seconds old. Cache hits cost 0 credits. Omit to always fetch fresh. The Cache-Control: max-age=N request header is equivalent; max_age wins when both are sent.
fieldsstringReturn only these fields of each item: comma-separated paths in the schema's notation (id,text,metrics.view_count,segments[].text; a parent path keeps the whole object). Unknown paths are rejected. Applied after the cache, so it changes neither the price nor cache hits; page and meta are always returned whole.

{data, meta}. data is a profile object; meta describes the request (meta). Fields only Rumble has are under platform_specific.rumble.
platformstringPlatform ID (tiktok, youtube, …).
idstringPlatform-native account ID (string; YouTube UC…, Reddit t2_…).
usernamestringnullableHandle without the @; null when the account has none.
display_namestringnullableDisplay name, channel title or page name; null when empty or not exposed.
urlstring uriCanonical profile URL.
typestringCoarse account kind, as the platform labels it; unknown when it does not (TikTok labels organizations only). New values may be added; treat unknown values as unknown.
One ofpersonorganizationcommunityunknown
biostringnullableProfile bio, channel description or page about text; null when empty or not exposed.
avatar_urlstring urinullableProfile picture URL (largest available). Platform CDN URLs can expire within hours.
banner_urlstring urinullableHeader or cover image URL.
is_verifiedbooleannullablePlatform verification badge; null where the platform has no badge.
is_privatebooleannullableTrue when the account's posts are not public.
categorystringnullablePlatform category label (e.g. Musician, Media & Entertainment), as shown; not normalized. Often set only for business or creator accounts.
external_linksobject[]Links in the bio or channel links; [] if none or not exposed.
ShowHide 2 child fields
urlstring uriLink target, absolute (https:// is added where the platform stores the link without a scheme).
titlestringnullableLink label shown by the platform.
locationstringnullableSelf-declared location text.
country_codestringnullableISO 3166-1 alpha-2 country the platform states for the account.
created_atstring date-timenullableAccount creation or join date, RFC 3339 UTC (some platforms give only the day: see approximate_fields).
metricsobjectCounts at fetch time; null = hidden or not exposed, 0 = zero.

follower_countintegernullableFollowers or subscribers.
following_countintegernullableAccounts this profile follows.
post_countintegernullablePosts or videos as the platform counts them on the profile (for a private account, posts the caller cannot see).
total_like_countintegernullableLikes received across all of the profile's posts (not likes given).
total_view_countintegernullableLifetime views across all of the profile's posts.
platform_specificobjectFields only this platform has, under its ID (platform_specific.<platform>); each null when unknown.

account_typestringnullablechannel for a Rumble channel (rumble.com/c/<name>), user for a Rumble user (rumble.com/user/<name>: the account that uploads, which can own channels). Null when unknown. New values may be added; treat unknown values as unknown.
One ofchanneluser
numeric_idstringnullableRumble's numeric ID of the channel or the user, in decimal (the channel's is the number in its rumble.com/c/c-<id> link). Channels and users are numbered separately, so the same number can name a channel and a user: id is the unambiguous reference. Null when unknown.
user_idstringnullableThe id of the Rumble user that owns the channel (_u…, the id this endpoint answers for that user); for a user, its own id. Channels of one owner share it. Null when the page does not show it.
approximate_fieldsstring[]JSON paths of values rounded by the platform or parsed from display text (e.g. metrics.follower_count). A list path (external_links) means the list may be incomplete. [] when all exact.
unknown_fieldsstring[]JSON paths of lists whose [] means unknown rather than none (a source that cannot see them); null already means unknown for every other field. [] when every list is known.
not_found and private_or_unavailable are item-level: the request was fine, the item can't be returned.
400
400 Bad Request: 1 error code. Free: errors cost nothing.
invalid_inputNo retryA parameter is missing or malformed, or the link is not one this endpoint takes.
Fix the parameter named in param as the message says. For a link of the wrong kind, call an endpoint listed in details.endpoints, when there is one.
401
401 Unauthorized: 1 error code. Free: errors cost nothing.
unauthorizedNo retryThe x-api-key header is missing, or its key is unknown or revoked. On the dashboard's routes: the session cookie is missing or expired.
Send a valid API key in the x-api-key header. No key yet? A person gets one at details.signup_url; an AI agent follows details.agent_auth_url.
402
402 Payment Required: 2 error codes. Free: errors cost nothing.
insufficient_creditsNo retryThe account does not have enough credits for this request.
Have a person buy credits at details.purchase_url (or make them a checkout link with details.checkout), then repeat the request. Do not retry automatically.
spend_limit_reachedNo retryThe API key reached its spend limit for this period. The account may still have credits.
Wait until details.resets_at, or raise the key's spend limit (PATCH /v1/api_keys/{id}). Do not retry automatically.
403
403 Forbidden: 2 error codes. Free: errors cost nothing.
forbiddenNo retryThe API key is valid but may not make this request, and details.reason says why: the account is suspended, the key lacks the route's scope, waits for its owner to confirm it by email, has expired, or was used from an IP outside its allowlist, or a rotated key's previous secret was used for a call that needs the admin scope. A running job stops with it too when its account is suspended or the key that created it is revoked or expires. It is about the key, never the item: a private item is private_or_unavailable, also 403, so branch on the code.
Act on details.reason. suspended: contact support. scope: use a key with details.required_scope. previous_secret: use the new secret. key_pending: have the owner open the emailed link. key_expired or key_revoked: create a new key. ip_not_allowed: call from an allowed IP.
404
404 Not Found: 1 error code. Free: errors cost nothing.
not_foundNo retryThe item does not exist or was deleted. On GET /v1/requests/{id}/response: the response was not kept (details.reason says why).
Check the link or ID. Do not retry.
429
429 Too Many Requests: 1 error code. Free: errors cost nothing.
rate_limitedYes, laterThe account passed its runaway-protection ceiling: a high per-account limit that stops a broken client loop (plans have no rate limit). Requests without an API key (signup, the MCP server's tool listing and find_endpoint) are limited per IP address instead. It also stops an account whose failed requests in the last hour cost far more than its successful ones paid for: failures are free within a limit (the message says so), and successes raise it.
Wait the seconds in the retry-after header, then retry. If your steady traffic needs more, ask support to raise the ceiling; without an API key, send one.
500
500 Internal Error: 1 error code. Free: errors cost nothing.
internalYes, laterAn unexpected error on SocialTap's side.
Retry with backoff. If it keeps happening, contact support with the request_id.
502
502 Bad Gateway: 1 error code. Free: errors cost nothing.
upstream_errorYes, laterThe platform failed, or answered with something we could not read.
Retry with backoff. Failed requests are free.
503
503 Unavailable: 2 error codes. Free: errors cost nothing.
upstream_blockedYes, laterThe platform refused every attempt, our own retries included.
Retry later with backoff. Failed requests are free.
overloadedYes, laterSocialTap was at capacity, or paused by its operators, and did not start the request. Nothing was fetched or charged.
Retry after the seconds in the retry-after header. Failed requests are free.
From 1 credit per request. Charged only for successful requests. Errors are free. The price depends on the source that produced the result, reported as meta.source.
| Source | Price per successful request | Per 1,000 requests |
|---|---|---|
Public page page | 1 credit | $0.75–$1.97 |
Balance, sources and what you were charged
Your balance must be at least 1 credit to start a request; with less, it is refused with insufficient_credits (HTTP 402) and costs nothing. Only that minimum is set aside when the request starts.
| meta.source | Source | What it means |
|---|---|---|
page | Public page | Data embedded in the platform's public web page. |
