Rumble

Rumble Channel Videos API

Beta

Returns the public uploads of a Rumble channel or user a page at a time: its videos, its shorts or its live streams (on air now, scheduled and past), newest or most viewed first. Each carries its link, title, thumbnail, exact upload time and length, exact views, likes, dislikes, comments and reposts, the video file, the channel with its exact follower count and badge, and for streams whether they are on air, the viewer count and when they started or are due. Accepts a channel or user name, any channel or user link, or a channel's ID.

Items come in pages, Rumble's upload order (newest uploads first, not strictly by published_at). To get the next page, send the same request plus cursor set to page.next_cursor from the previous response. Keep every other parameter the same (limit, max_age and fields may change); anything else that differs is rejected. When page.has_more is false the walk is over, and page.end_reason says why: only end means you have every item (the others say the platform or a page cap stopped the walk early).

  • The price is per page: each successful page costs the same, whatever limit is and however many items it has. Empty pages are charged too (an empty page with has_more: true is not the end), except a page whose items since or until all removed: that one is free.
  • A limit below 25 doesn't save credits: the next request serves the rest of the same platform page, which is fetched again and charged as a page each time, and items can shift between those requests if the platform changes the list. Omitting limit is the cheapest way to walk the list.
  • Errors are free, including a rejected cursor.
  • Pages served from the cache are free.
  • An expired or altered cursor, or one sent with different parameters, fails with invalid_cursor (HTTP 400): Repeat the original request without cursor to start the list again.
