{
  "results": [
    {
      "platform": "xiaohongshu",
      "id": "5f1a…",
      "name": "…",
      "red_id": "…",

Notes

  • Five actions: youtube_search, xiaohongshu_search, xiaohongshu_notes, x_profile and tiktok_creator. Which of query or id each uses is in the description above.
  • x_profile returns followers, following, post count, bio and website for one handle. xiaohongshu_notes returns a creator's recent notes, with note links that include the xsec_token they need to open.
  • Follower counts from search are text as the source shows them (for example 1.2万粉丝), not numbers.

Errors

Upstream trouble is reported inside a normal result as error, reason and action (and tool / retry_after_seconds when they apply). For search_signals this appears per source. See Errors.

This tool is in the Creators pack. If the pack is not enabled the call fails with pack_required (HTTP 403); if the pack's monthly upstream cost limit is used up it fails with soft_limit (HTTP 429). Both carry action: "give_up_and_tell_user" and the console URL.
