Bluesky has an open API. Why use Upscrape?

You can call Bluesky's public API yourself. Upscrape gives you the same public data as clean JSON in the same shape as every other platform Upscrape covers, with paging handled, over REST or MCP, so one integration covers them all.

Do I need a Bluesky account?

No. You send a handle, a link or a feed and get JSON back. No account or app password is needed.

Can I search posts by keyword?

Not yet. You can search accounts, read any account's posts and threads, and follow feeds and trending topics.

What data can I get from Bluesky?

Profile, author feed, post thread, actors search, followers, follows, post likes, repost users, trending topics, feed generators, feed posts and resolve handle. Each is its own endpoint with a published input schema, and the response is JSON.

How much does the Bluesky API cost?

Every Bluesky endpoint costs 1 credit per successful call. You buy credits once, with no subscription, and paid credits never expire. New accounts get free credits to try it.

Can an AI agent use the Bluesky API?

Yes. Connect any MCP client to the Upscrape MCP server with OAuth or an API key. The agent finds the Bluesky endpoint, checks its price and runs it with the same credits as the REST API.

Is it legal to scrape Bluesky?

Upscrape reads public pages only and needs no login. How you use the data is yours to decide under the laws that apply to you; we sign a data processing agreement for your legal review.

What happens when Bluesky changes its pages?

We fix the endpoint. Your request and the response fields stay the same.
