Resolve a Post URL

Takes a public post URL (TikTok video/photo, Instagram post/reel, YouTube video/short) and resolves it to the tracked post: the entry point when your input is a link. found:true returns the postId for get_post, request_transcript, download_post_media and remix_post. found:false tells you whether the whole profile is untracked (call crawl_profile) or just this post. Note that remix_post accepts an untracked URL directly and ingests it itself, so for a remix you can skip this lookup. TikTok/Instagram short links (vm.tiktok.com, /share/) must be expanded to the canonical URL first.

Cost: 1 credit per call.
