Bluesky profile posts

Beta GET /v1/bluesky/profile/posts

GET /v1/bluesky/profile/posts

A paged feed of the user's posts. Pass the DID (ScrapeCreators' user_id) for faster lookups.

  • Cost: 1 credit
  • Status: Beta. Built and tested against recorded responses; the shape may still gain fields.
  • Cache: Results are kept up to 30 days; send max_age_days to reuse them for free.
  • Timeout: A request still running after about 25 seconds answers 202 with a job to poll (Batch and jobs).

Parameters#

NameTypeRequiredDescription
handlestringyesHandle (alice.bsky.social) or DID (did:plc:...). Also accepted as username, user_id.

Every request also accepts:

  • cursor: the cursor from the previous page (Pagination).
  • trim: true for a smaller response without null fields and extra.
  • raw: true to also get the platform's original object as raw.
  • max_age_days: accept a cached result up to this many days old, for 0 credits (Caching).

Response#

A list of Post objects in data.items, with data.cursor and data.has_more.

See Data models for every field. The envelope around data is described in Responses.

Errors#

Failures are free: credits_charged is 0. Branch on error.code, never on the message.

CodeHTTPRetryMeaning
invalid_params400noA parameter is missing, unknown or has the wrong type.
not_found404noThe platform says this profile, post or item does not exist.

Every request can also fail with the account and platform errors listed on the Errors page.

Example error:

{
  "ok": false,
  "error": {
    "code": "not_found",
    "message": "The platform says this profile, post or item does not exist.",
    "retryable": false
  },
  "credits_charged": 0,
  "request_id": "req_6baac46087b50f0c360c2f2c"
}

These paths answer the same request, so code written for other APIs keeps working: /v1/bluesky/user/posts. See Switching from ScrapeCreators.
