OnlyFans API how-to guides

Task-shaped walkthroughs: each post takes one job — authenticating an account, sending a DM, scheduling a post, catching a webhook — and shows the calls end to end.

If you are starting from zero

The guides below are listed newest first, but they were written to be worked through in build order. Start by linking a creator account — nothing else returns data until that session exists. Then pull the subscriber list to confirm you are reading the right account, and send one message by hand before you automate anything.

From there the work splits by what you are building. Messaging volume leads to automated DMs and a full bot loop; a content calendar leads to scheduled posts. Either way you stop polling once webhooks are wired up, and the production guide covers what breaks after launch: retries, idempotency keys, expired sessions and rate limits.

Every snippet runs against the live API. Pick a stack from the Python, Node.js or cURL quickstart, or read the endpoint reference first.

How to Automate OnlyFans DMs With an API

Run DM campaigns from code: segment, price the blast before firing, read the per-recipient bill, and track a 500 ms-throttled run to completion.

guide

How to Build an OnlyFans Bot (End-to-End Guide)

A complete OnlyFans bot: verify the signed webhook, dedupe on the delivery header, keep per-fan state between turns, and reply. Working Node code.

guide

OnlyFans API Best Practices (Production Guide)

Which errors are charged, which are safe to retry, how idempotency keys behave on replay, and how to budget credits against a per-minute ceiling.

guide

How to Authenticate an OnlyFans Account

Linking an OnlyFans account is an encrypted server-side session, not OAuth. Mint a token, verify the link with isAuth, and recover cleanly from a 424.

guide

How to Get Your OnlyFans Subscribers List via API

Run a resumable first sync of your OnlyFans subscribers, then keep it current with a cheap delta instead of re-reading the whole roster every night.

guide

How to Schedule OnlyFans Posts Programmatically

Run an OnlyFans content queue from code: the 3-credit create, the date-windowed read, counters as a change detector, and what a reschedule costs.

guide

How to Send OnlyFans Messages With an API

Send a DM, price it as PPV, attach vault media by id — and make a send that timed out safe to retry with an Idempotency-Key instead of double-posting.

OnlyFans Webhook Events Explained

Only one OnlyFans webhook event exists: message.received. Why it still beats a poll loop — the credit arithmetic, at-least-once dedupe, four common traps.
