    # SociaVault API Documentation


    The SociaVault API provides comprehensive access to social media data
    extraction across multiple platforms.

    Reddit, Threads, and more

    - **Credit-Based System**: Pay-as-you-go pricing with transparent credit
    costs

    - **High Performance**: Fast, reliable data extraction

    - **Comprehensive Data**: Detailed user profiles, videos, posts, comments,
    and analytics


    ## Authentication


    All API requests require authentication using an API key in the `X-API-Key`
    header:


    ```bash

    X-API-Key: sk_live_your_api_key_here

    ```


    Get your API key from the [SociaVault

    - Paginated requests: Credits per page


    Check your credit balance in the dashboard or via the API.

      Some ads you need to log in for and sadly we can't get those. Also, since
      there are so many variations, the return types might not all be 100% the
      same.
