Profile posts and videos

List the posts, reels and videos on a public profile or channel, one page at a time, without knowing the post URLs.

Each call reads one page live from the platform; pass the returned cursor back to read the next. Lists on YouTube carry a continuation instead. Posts carry no like or comment counts, and reels carry no caption. To read them for one item, send its URL to Post metrics.
