TikTok profile, recent posts, and computed analytics in one call.
Fans out to the TikTok profile and recent-posts endpoints in parallel and returns the unified author, the recent-post list, and computed metrics: avg_engagement_rate, avg_engagement_rate_by_followers, posting cadence (with the window it was measured over), the top post, and the format mix. avg_engagement_rate is view-based: the mean of each post's (likes + comments + shares) / views, so only posts that carry a view count contribute, and it is null when none does. avg_engagement_rate_by_followers is the mean of likes + comments per post divided by the account's follower count, over every post that carries both, so it covers posts with no view count. One call reads one page of recent posts, which on TikTok is 10 videos, and computes the metrics over that page: posts can shorten the window but not lengthen it past one page, and _warnings says so when fewer posts came back than posts asked for. Pass posts_cursor back as cursor to read the next page, 5 credits a call. The profile leg is the only critical leg: if posts can't be fetched the call still returns the profile with post-dependent metrics null, and every leg's status is surfaced in legs[]. Flat 5 credits.
Request
- Base URL: https://www.socialcrawl.dev/v1
- URL: https://www.socialcrawl.dev/v1/tiktok/profile/full
- Auth: API key in header x-api-key
Query parameters
TikTok username or handle, with or without a leading @. One of the identity params is required. (one of: handle, user_id; at least one required)
Numeric TikTok user id. Use it instead of the handle when you already have the stable id, which survives a rename. One of the identity params is required. (one of: handle, user_id; at least one required)
How many of the fetched recent posts to return and compute the metrics over (1-100, default 25). One call reads one page, which on TikTok is 10 videos, so a larger value returns that page and a _warnings note; pass posts_cursor back as cursor for the next page.
Pass a prior response's posts_cursor to read the next page of posts. Each call is a separate 5-credit call whose metrics cover that page only.
CSV subset of posts,computed (default both). include=computed omits the raw posts[] array from the response to save payload. The metrics are computed from the same fetched posts either way, so they do not change.
Headers
Send no-cache to bypass the response cache and force a live fetch. Billed at the normal endpoint cost; the fresh result is written back to cache for the next caller. Only the no-cache directive triggers this. See the Response Schema guide for details.
Optional UUID that makes the request safely retriable. The key is reserved atomically per account before billing. A concurrent retry receives 409 IDEMPOTENCY_IN_PROGRESS with a Retry-After of 1 second while the original is young, growing to a quarter of the time it has been running (at most 30); a crashed reservation expires after 5 minutes. A replay keeps the cached payload immutable except for billing metadata: credits_used becomes 0, idempotent_replay becomes true, and credits_remaining is refreshed to the current balance. A known current balance appears in both the body and X-Credits-Remaining header; no balance row resolves to 0. On a transient lookup failure, body credits_remaining is null and X-Credits-Remaining is omitted. Completed outcomes expire after 24 hours. If the claim store is unavailable, the request fails closed before billing. GET endpoints do not combine idempotent replay with Server-Sent Events: use Accept: application/json when sending this header. The unsupported key-plus-SSE combination is rejected before billing.
