Frequently Asked Questions

Explore the API reference

Bluesky API and scraping

What public data can I retrieve with the Bluesky API?

Retrieve profile identity, biographies, images and follower counts, account feeds, individual posts and nested replies. Batch endpoints let your application retrieve several profiles or selected post views in one request.

How do I scrape Bluesky posts from a public account?

Pass a handle or user ID to User Posts to retrieve posts, replies and reposts with media and engagement counts. Use the returned cursor to request another page, or look up a particular post by its Bluesky URL.

Can I retrieve a single Bluesky post from its public URL?

Pass the post URL to Post Details to retrieve the author, text, media and conversation data in one response. Use the post identity and source link to connect the record to a saved research entry.

Bluesky: profiles, posts and conversations

Can the Bluesky API retrieve multiple creator profiles at once?

Yes. Profiles Batch accepts handles or DIDs and returns profile metadata with a result for each requested actor in input order. Use the identity, biography and audience counts to enrich a creator shortlist.

Can I get Bluesky post replies and engagement data?

Yes. The individual Post endpoint returns the post, author, media metadata, engagement counts and nested replies. Posts Batch retrieves selected post views by their canonical AT URIs for side-by-side content research.

Which Bluesky engagement counts can I use in a post comparison?

Post Details returns engagement counts alongside the post and author. Posts Batch lets you retrieve selected AT URIs together, so your application can compare the returned counters across a defined set of posts.

API access and integration

How do I get a ScrapeAtlas API key and authenticate requests?

Create a ScrapeAtlas account and generate an API key in the dashboard. Send the key in the x-api-key request header when calling https://api.scrapeatlas.com. The API playground lets you enter an endpoint’s parameters and inspect its JSON response.

Can I call the scraping API from Python, JavaScript or the CLI?

Yes. Send authenticated HTTP requests from Python, JavaScript or another language that supports HTTP. The endpoint reference includes request examples and response fields. Use the ScrapeAtlas CLI for terminal workflows and pass the returned pagination values when requesting additional result pages.

Can I connect an AI assistant to the ScrapeAtlas MCP server?

Yes. Connect an MCP-compatible assistant to the ScrapeAtlas MCP server to discover and call the public platform tools with your ScrapeAtlas account. The agent reference also gives coding assistants a readable guide to the endpoints and their request schemas.
