Request body
JSON, posted to this endpoint.
- idstring
TikTok video ID, the numeric run at the end of a video URL. Use it when a listing SKU handed you an id and no URL.
- requireFieldsarray
Optional; omit it and routing is unchanged, with the cheapest source serving. Name the output fields this request must be able to return, for example `views`, and it is served only by a source that returns every one of them. Fields you do not name are still returned whenever the serving source has them. This can raise your price: when the cheapest source cannot return a named field, a dearer source serves, and you are quoted and charged its price. A named field can still be absent on a video that genuinely lacks it. Naming a combination that no single source returns together is refused as invalid input, with no charge. A source that returns only a rounded or shortened value for a field does not count as returning it.
- urlstring
https://www.tiktok.com/@cristiano/video/7375000000000000000
Full TikTok video URL.
Response
JSON, one example value per field.
- authorFollowersintegercan require
The author's follower count at the time of the request. Some sources round large counts; name `authorFollowers` in requireFields to be served only by a source that returns the exact count. Null when the serving source does not report it.
- authorHandlestring
Author's TikTok handle, without the leading @.
- authorImagestring
Author's avatar image URL. Signed and short-lived, so the query string is load-bearing and kept intact.
- authorNamestring
Author's display name.
- authorUserIdstring
Author's numeric TikTok user id.
- authorVerifiedbooleancan require
Whether the author's account carries a TikTok verification badge. Null when the serving source does not report it.
- captionstring
Matchday 🔥
Populated whenever the provider has data for the entity.
- commentsintegercan require
18400
Number of comments. Some sources round large counts (48.5K instead of 48,536); name `comments` in requireFields to be served only by a source that returns the exact count.
- createdUtcnumber
UTC epoch timestamp in seconds (Unix time). Multiply by 1000 for a JS Date in milliseconds.
- durationSecondsnumber
Video duration in seconds.
- hashtagsstring[]
Hashtags carried in the caption, without the leading #. Empty when the post uses none; @-mentions are excluded.
- idstring
7375000000000000000
Populated whenever the provider has data for the entity.
- imagestring
URL of the video's cover/thumbnail image. A signed, short-lived TikTok CDN URL (typically expires within about a day; query params are load-bearing and kept intact), often served as HEIC rather than JPEG, so fetch it promptly and transcode if you need broad browser support. Absent when the upstream provides no cover.
- likesintegercan require
1200000
Number of likes. Some sources round large counts (2.9M instead of 2,884,604); name `likes` in requireFields to be served only by a source that returns the exact count.
- regionstring
US
- savesinteger
41200
- sdVideoUrlstringcan require
Standard-resolution H.264 video URL without the watermark (often 720p), playable in every browser; the same file as videoUrl when the source has no higher-resolution file. Signed and short-lived, so the query string is load-bearing and kept intact.
- sharesintegercan require
64000
Number of shares. Some sources round large counts (35.9K instead of 35,923); name `shares` in requireFields to be served only by a source that returns the exact count.
- soundAuthorstring
Credited author of the sound. Populated whenever the provider has data for the entity.
- soundClipIdstring
Id of the sound the video uses. Pass it to tiktok.song or tiktok.song_videos as clipId. Populated whenever the provider has data for the entity.
- soundTitlestring
Name of the sound. "original sound" means the creator's own audio rather than a licensed track. Populated whenever the provider has data for the entity.
- urlstring
Canonical TikTok URL of the video.
- videoUrlstringcan require
Playable video URL without the watermark, at the highest resolution the source has: often 1080p and often encoded as H.265 (HEVC), which some browsers such as Firefox cannot play; use sdVideoUrl for those. Signed and short-lived, so the query string is load-bearing and kept intact.
- viewsintegercan require
9400000
Number of plays. Some sources round large counts (32.7M instead of 32,736,400); name `views` in requireFields to be served only by a source that returns the exact count.
- foundboolean
true
- reason"not_found"
Present only when `found` is false, and says why there is no result. `not_found`: the source states the target does not exist, or returned nothing for it. A `found: false` answer is a successful call, not an error, and `costUsd` is what it actually cost.
