API for webscrapers

[darthcrawl]

Hi.

I am currently developing a search engine with a dedicated focus on non-mainstream content, I aim to feature Odysee within the video search segment. While the majority of search engines primarily emphasize YouTube content, my objective is to elevate Odysee as the central platform for the video section of my search engine.

During the development process, I have encountered challenges in effectively accessing and indexing video content from Odysee, particularly due to the dynamic nature of content loading on the platform. My initial attempts at web scraping did not yield the desired results, possibly due to the JavaScript-based rendering of video links and metadata.

I am seeking guidance or best practices for accessing Odysee's video content in a structured and reliable manner. Specifically, I am interested in understanding if there is an official or public API provided by Odysee for accessing video metadata, including titles, descriptions, and URLs.
Any recommended method or tool that Odysee endorses or provides for developers looking to integrate or index Odysee content in external applications or search engines.
My goal is to ensure a seamless integration that respects Odysee’s operational framework and data access policies while providing enriched video results for my search engine users.

I would greatly appreciate any information, documentation, or insights you can provide regarding the optimal approach for integrating Odysee content. Thanks.
