# Kick API guide



## Choose a Kick operation



Start with the object your task needs. The groups below use the current catalogue; open an endpoint to check accepted identifiers, filters, price and availability before retrieving.



### Other operations



- [Kick clip](https://www.monocrawl.com/docs/endpoints/kick/clip) — One clip: title, video and thumbnail URLs, duration, views, likes, times, category, creator and channel.



## Check fields and collection limits



Use the endpoint’s declared parameters and returned continuation. Filters from another platform do not automatically apply here. Preserve source identifiers, URLs and warnings; a successful page does not establish complete history. Published response schemas identify whether they come from a reviewed shaper or observed response shapes.



Agents can use `get_endpoint` for the current contract and `get_docs` with topic `platforms/kick` to read this page. The [coverage guide](https://www.monocrawl.com/docs/data-availability) explains nulls and partial results, and the [production guide](https://www.monocrawl.com/docs/production-checklist) covers budgets and recovery.



## Endpoint reference

## kick/clip

`GET /v1/kick/clip`

One clip: title, video and thumbnail URLs, duration, views, likes, times, category, creator and channel.

*Kick clip*

| Parameter | Required | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `url` | yes | Clip URL — e.g. `https://kick.com/xqc/clips/clip_01JGJHB6CEVFCQRYTVPM8DW892` |
| `dry_run` | no | Read a zero-credit estimate without fetching sources, running AI, or reserving credits. Cache status is a snapshot, not a guarantee at execution. Accepted values: 1, 0, true, false. Case, spaces, hyphens and underscores are interchangeable. — e.g. `1` |

### Useful optional inputs

- `dry_run`: Read a free estimate before fetching sources or scheduling paid work. Zero credits; cache status and availability are snapshots rather than guarantees.

**Cost:** 2 credits at list price per successful uncached response; variable-cost operations may quote or settle a different charge. Confirmed uncharged or refunded failures report zero. Pending reconciliation can report credits_used:null; retain request_id and the original idempotency key.

```bash
curl "https://www.monocrawl.com/v1/kick/clip?url=https%3A%2F%2Fkick.com%2Fxqc%2Fclips%2Fclip_01JGJHB6CEVFCQRYTVPM8DW892" \
  -H "x-api-key: mn_your_key_here"
```
