**Category:** Social Media | **Website:** [t.me/ilchegg/10400](https://t.me/ilchegg/10400) | **Docs:** [parse.bot/marketplace/b3adcfef-398c-4c5a-be75-98d1d005dc5c/t-me-api](https://parse.bot/marketplace/b3adcfef-398c-4c5a-be75-98d1d005dc5c/t-me-api)

Pay-per-use API proxy for Locus Pro. Each call burns credits from your workspace balance.

## Access

**Base URL:** `https://api.paywithlocus.com/api/wrapped/credits/telegram-web/`
**Auth:** `Authorization: Bearer <LOCUS_CREDITS_SECRET_KEY>` (an `lcr_` secret key or a scoped `lcac_` agent credential)
**Required header:** `Idempotency-Key: <fresh UUID per call>`. A retry with the same key replays the stored result without a new charge.
**Response:** the provider response after any endpoint-specific normalization. `X-Locus-Credits-Charged` carries the charge and `X-Locus-Credits-Balance` the remaining balance. Insufficient credits return `402` before the provider is called.
**Pricing:** estimated costs below are USD. Locus debits the credit equivalent at your workspace rate.

> Using a Pay With Locus wallet key (`claw_` prefix)? Wallet routes are documented separately: https://docs.paywithlocus.com/wrapped-apis/for-agents

## Endpoints

### Get comments

Retrieve comments from a public Telegram channel post. Comments are returned sorted by time (oldest first). Pagination through older comments is handled automatically until the specified limit is reached. Each comment includes the author name, profile URL, message text, timestamp, media flags, and photo URLs when available. Posts without a linked discussion group return an empty comments list.

**Estimated cost:** Metered

| Field | Type | Required | Description |
|-------|------|----------|-------------|
| `channel` | string | Yes | Telegram channel username (the part after t.me/, e.g. 'ilchegg'). |
| `limit` | integer | No | Maximum number of comments to return. |
| `post_id` | string | Yes | Numeric post ID within the channel (e.g. '10400'). |
