Looking for API endpoint to list all episodes on TVer.jp

[Shaorin]

This site might require Japan ip to access videos but I'm unsure if the api is region blocked. Does anyone know the api endpoint to list all episodes in a series? like for example this series https://tver.jp/series/sr3lsg7nv7 . I'm looking for a way to list all episodes via REST API so I can automate it to regularly check for new eps to auto download

For this kind of tasks, I usually use web scraping tools.
You can try Octuparse. It is free up to 10000 pages (9,999) so you should be OK
The learning curve is quite easy. They have a lot of videos and articles, it is really fantastic. You will create an Excel file with links to all the web pages. But you need to practice first.

I did a GET request to

https://service-api.tver.jp/api/v1/callSeriesSeasons/sr3lsg7nv7

but it seem to be platform blocked. Anyway around it? I'm using postman to test this

{
    "api_version": "",
    "code": 70401,
    "message": "お使いのプラットフォームには対応しておりません [platformType: ]",
    "type": ""
}

Doesn't work

https://platform-api.tver.jp/service/api/v1/callSeriesEpisodes/sr3lsg7nv7

it gives this:

{
    "api_version": "v2",
    "code": 11,
    "message": "",
    "type": "hash",
    "result": null,
    "error": {
        "code": 11
    }
}

[shellcmd]

usually the api endpoint need some headers/payload/params sending together, it will return json response, all information will in it. you find the api endpoint and make a curl copy(as bash if you want to use python) then paste it to curlconverter.com, you will find headers and params to send, and yes the method works if you operate correctly.

good luck.

either get the headers which includes API key or directly use yt-dlp to get the urls

yt-dlp --get-url https://tver.jp/series/sr3lsg7nv7
