FAQ

About this Actor.

General questions are on the home page. Something else? piotr@crawlplant.com

How do I see how long a video stayed trending?

Every video row has hoursOnPopular and boardHistory: the hours it has spent on the popular board and each category ranking in our hourly snapshots, when it entered and left, and its best position. No schedule needed.

How does tracking work?

Run videos or creators mode with trackDays (1 to 90). Our server reads them every hour from then on, and "mode": "tracked" returns the series whenever you ask. A later run with trackDays extends the period and charges only the added days.

How far back does the history go?

The weekly must-watch archive goes back to issue 1 in March 2019. Our server has snapshotted the popular board, the 17 rankings and the hot searches every hour since October 2026, and a tracked video or creator has its series from the hour you start tracking it.

Is there a Bilibili API?

Bilibili has no open API for developers outside China. This Actor gives the same public data as clean JSON, CSV or Excel through Apify's API, with no key or account at Bilibili.

Does it translate titles?

Titles, tags and comments stay in the original Chinese, ready for an LLM to translate or summarise. Category names also come in English.

Can an AI agent use it?

Yes. Add https://mcp.apify.com?tools=crawlplant/bilibili-trending-history to any MCP client and the agent can read the boards, search, comments and tracked history on its own.
