People have asked questions via the feedback widget. Some are user specific which I can't answer, as it's anonymous and I can't contact you directly. For user specific questions, you can send a mail
As for other, general, frequently asked questions I'll answer them below:
Q: Does this automatically get the cdm keys?
A: Yes. Keys for Widevine protected media gets handled automaticly.
Q: Am I able to pull all OnlyFans usernames that have free accounts using your API?
A: Onlyscraper API can retrieve information from any user on Onlyfans, which means all of them.
Q: How do you register for free account?
A: Free accounts don't need to register. You use the scraper as a guest. From the moment you support us, you get an account to load your benefits.
Q: What does X-BC header value and sess cookie value mean?
A: These 2 are the recipe to log in on Onlyfans. Like special credentials. Without it, Onlyscraper can't communicate with Onlyfans.
Q: When I try to download it hangs after the first x images/videos.
A: Give it max 10 minutes, depending on what it's scraping and downloading it could be huge files. The chance of a download failure, should be very minimal as it has access to a 2.5Gb connection. If you do think it takes too long, refresh the page and just try again
Q: Using this is very hard for newbie
A: I assume you're talking about connecting to platforms. I am aware. It requires a tiny bit of technical knowledge. Though, everything is explained if you click on the button with the question mark.
That said, I am developing (as from 2025-12-06) a solution so you can skip the technical part of pressing F12 or using a mobile browser extension.
