Frequently asked questions

No. Scrappa is an independent service and is not affiliated with or endorsed by Dailymotion. The Dailymotion API returns structured JSON from public video data through a Scrappa API key.

Every Scrappa account includes 500 free credits each month. After that, each request costs one credit, which works out to $0.20 to $0.30 per 1,000 requests depending on the credit pack or plan. Failed requests are never charged.

Use the 1-based page parameter with limit up to 100. The response returns page, limit, total, and has_more. has_more is true while more pages exist. A valid empty result is a successful response.

The channel endpoint returns channel info by default. Pass include=videos to get the channel's video list instead, with page and limit for pagination.
