TikTok profile API

GET/v1/tiktok/profilelive · proven1 credit

Parameters

Query parameters

Name	Required	Description	Example
`handle`	yes	TikTok username, with or without the leading @.	`charlidamelio`
`dry_run`	no	Read a zero-credit estimate without fetching sources, running AI, or reserving credits. Cache status is a snapshot, not a guarantee at execution.	`1`
`judgments`	no	Add bounded AI labels to eligible returned records (default on). off preserves the original data shape. Unclassified records remain present; labels depend on evidence, time, capacity and the existing request budget. No label surcharge.	`on`
`label`	no	Set none to disable labels; default enables the endpoint’s label set. Equivalent to judgments=off.	`none`
`label_evidence`	no	Include exact supporting sentences and zero-based sentence indexes when a label has validated evidence. No extra charge or change to decisions.	`1`
`exclude`	no	Optionally remove confidently labelled engagement bait. Uncertain and unclassified records stay; removed IDs and an owner-bound recall reference are returned.	`engagement_bait`
`fit`	no	Use goal to replace confidently irrelevant records with recall stubs. Keeps first, last, relevant and uncertain records; preserves order. Full evidence is stored for 24 hours when available.	`goal`
`goal`	no	Required with fit=goal: describe the task in at most 600 characters. Supplied text is task context, never permission to act on posts.	`Find concrete product complaints`
`tokens`	no	Optional soft response target for fit=goal, 256–32000. Safety and evidence retention take priority, so the returned result may exceed it.	`4000`

Response

Response fields and example

This example is illustrative, not a captured live response. Variable-cost operations may settle a charge different from the list price below. A successful response puts the platform payload in data and reports the exact credits used, remaining balance, request id and cache status beside it.

{
  "success": true,
  "platform": "tiktok",
  "endpoint": "/v1/tiktok/profile",
  "data": {
    "id": "7350000000000000001",

    "name": "Example Creator",

The example uses fictional values and shows a documented subset of data. The fields below are optional across supported sources; nullable fields can also be absent. Preserve unknown values and accept additional fields.

Download the data JSON Schema. Validate response.data, not the whole envelope. A valid shape does not establish that every field or source record was returned.

`id`	`string \| null`	Source identifier. Preserve its exact string value; do not convert large IDs to numbers.
`handle`	`string \| null`	Public account username.
`name`	`string \| null`	Display name.
`url`	`string \| null`	Original source URL when supplied.
`bio`	`string \| null`	Public biography.
`bio_link`	`string \| null`	Original source URL when supplied.
`avatar_url`	`string \| null`	Original source URL when supplied.
`followers`	`number \| null`	Followers reported by the source; null or absent is unknown, not zero.
`following`	`number \| null`	Following reported by the source; null or absent is unknown, not zero.
`verified`	`boolean \| null`	Source verification flag; meaning depends on the platform.
`likes_count`	`number \| null`	Account likes reported by the source; null or absent is unknown, not zero.
`video_count`	`number \| null`	Videos reported by the source; null or absent is unknown, not zero.
`commerce_user`	`boolean \| null`	Commerce-account flag; not a business category.
`seller`	`boolean \| null`	Seller flag.
`region`	`string \| null`	Account region supplied by TikTok; not personal residence.
`business_category`	`string \| null`	Public source category.
`_warnings`	`array`	Collection limitations or component warnings. Read before interpreting coverage.

Failures use the typed error envelope. A confirmed uncharged or refunded failure reports zero; a pending reconciliation can report an unknown charge. Read credits_used and error.details.billing_status, and keep request_id for recovery. Response contract · Error reference
