Audio › Reels GET

Returns reels that use one specific audio track, each with its engagement counts and the account that posted it. Use it after search/music or music/trending: pass the audio_id to see who is posting with that sound. **20 credits** per call. Re-running the exact same call within 6h is free. Paginates by `cursor` — see [Pagination](/docs/pagination).

Comment GET

Returns one comment's current text, like count, reply count, author, and timestamp, plus the post's total comment count for context. Use it when you already know which comment you want, so you do not have to page through post/comments to find it again. **Metered: 100–300 credits.** We reserve the ceiling when the call starts and charge what it actually used when it finishes. Re-running the exact same call within 6h is free.
