Site structure

Assuming all the numeric IDs are incrementing, there are about 71M accounts, 6.1M blogs, 591M blog articles, 20.6M albums, 1262M photos, and 33.2M videos or audios on Xuite in the end.

User

Each member has a user_id in the regex form of [a-z0-9._]{1,20} and one or more numeric serial numbers. Mulitiple serial numbers may correspond to the same user_id, possibly due to account merging.

The currently known user serial number ranges are 10000000~31400000 and 230300000~281000000.

The user profile service My窩[2] has been terminated since 2021 [3]. There is no way to access the user friend list through the webpage without using the API.

Blog

A member can have multiple blogs. Each blog has a custom alphanumeric blogUrl and a globally unique incremental numeric blog_id. The blogUrl is editable after blog creation.

Each article has a globally unique incremental numeric article_id, not exceeding 590788555.

Photo

Each album has a globally unique incremental numeric album_id.

Each photo has a numeric position number in the album and a globally unique incremental numeric photo_id.

Vlog

Each video or audio has a globally unique incremental numeric MEDIA_ID (not exceeding 33178667), and a FILE_NAME in the regex form of (?:[A-Za-z0-9]{31}|[A-Za-z0-9]{6})-MEDIA_ID\.flv in Base64 encoding forms the video URL.

Members can create directories to categorize media they uploaded, and each media cannot belong to more than one directory [5]. Each directory has a globally unique incremental numeric dir_id.

Members can create playlists to categorize any media on Xuite since 2015 [6]. Each playlist has a globally unique incremental numeric plid.

Flash-based creations

Members used to be able to embed Flash gadgets in blog sidebars or articles. Although these gadgets are deprecated [7][8], the configuration XML files, images and audios shown in FlashVars are archivable.

If http://c.blog.xuite.net/cf/7b/11732000/blog_698/mtv/4711036/flash_config.xml (occasionally) redirects to the forbidden page https://my.xuite.net/error.php?ecode=403, there is an alternative URL https://blog.xuite.net/_users/cf/7b/11732000/blog_698/mtv/4711036/flash_config.xml .

URL shortener

Web page visitors can use the URL shortener by clicking the "短網址" button in the upper right corner of the website toolbar [9].

Others

Other subdomains consists mostly of static content, which has been partially saved by Wayback Machine:

API

Xuite Photo Feed API

The following method returns a JSON-encoded album list of the user [10].

The following method returns a JSON-encoded photo list of the album [11].

Xuite API

Members used to be able to apply for Xuite API keys since 2011 [12]. Although new applications were later closed, existing API keys can still be used.

All requests should be accompanied by a signature api_sig derived from the API key and the corresponding 10-digit secret key, but methods with "public" property do not require Oauth 2.0 Authorization from the user.

The signature generation formula is md5(<secret key> + <concatenated parameter values sorted by parameter names>) [13].

For example, if the API key is 500e40b862395d8a177d402d43cee9db, the corresponding secret key is 0123456789, and the query parameters are api_key=500e40b862395d8a177d402d43cee9db&method=xuite.photo.public.getPhotos&user_id=photo&album_id=4286795&pw=&start=0&limit=21, the signature should be md5(01234567894286795500e40b862395d8a177d402d43cee9db21xuite.photo.public.getPhotos0photo) = afc87f038f0c538677609eca6b1e7e88.

Non-public APIs

Some methods are designed to be called by AJAX or Flash. These methods do not require the API key.

User information

Friend list

Similar to Wretch, the friendship of Xuite is directional. Username discovery can be performed in two directions.

Blog AJAX

Album photo list

The following method derived from https://blog.xuite.net/_service/swf/slideshow.swf returns an XML-encoded list with album thumbnail and photo size. It uses a 10-character check key that is affected by the day of the week.

Media source info

The following methods return an XML-encoded media source info by providing the Base64-encoded MEDIA_ID solely. The FILE_NAME and owner's user_id can be derived from the returned Base64-encoded flv_src.

Media playlist

This API cannot infer the owner of the playlist.
