## Output

Shape of the run's `result`, checked against 1 real answer:

```txt
{ code, data: { log: { impr_id, search_id, search_keyword }, path, extra: { now, logid, scenes, device_score, search_request_id }, log_pb: { impr_id }, struct: { fp, id, layout_type }, success, time_cost: { stream_inner }, render_info: unknown[], status_code, business_data: unknown[], global_config: { hidden_filter }, business_config: { ad_info, keyword, has_more, card_count, filter_bar, poi_search_info, search_nil_info, is_filter_search, extra_fresh_struct, pre_loadmore_config }, mock_recall_path }, message, requestId, recordTime }
```

## Run it

Every call needs your API token in `LOOOT_TOKEN`; [Sign in](/get-started/sign-in#use-the-token-in-scripts-and-agents) shows how to get one. Each run also needs a new idempotency key, so a retry never pays twice. With `wait: 30` the answer comes back inline when the run ends within 30 seconds. Otherwise you get the running run back: poll `GET /v1/runs/<runId>`.

Example input with placeholder values:

<CodeGroup>

```bash curl
curl -X POST "https://api.looot.ai/v1/runs" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $LOOOT_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "Idempotency-Key: $(uuidgen)" \
  -d '{"endpointId":"justoneapi-api-douyin-search-user","input":{"keyword":"<keyword>"},"wait":30}'
```

```js JavaScript
const response = await fetch("https://api.looot.ai/v1/runs", {
  method: "POST",
  headers: {
    Authorization: `Bearer ${process.env.LOOOT_TOKEN}`,
    "Content-Type": "application/json",
    "Idempotency-Key": crypto.randomUUID(),
  },
  body: JSON.stringify({
    endpointId: "justoneapi-api-douyin-search-user",
    input: {
      keyword: "<keyword>",
    },
    wait: 30,
  }),
});
const run = await response.json();
console.log(run.status, run.result);
```

```python Python
import os
import uuid

import requests

response = requests.post(
    "https://api.looot.ai/v1/runs",
    headers={
        "Authorization": f"Bearer {os.environ['LOOOT_TOKEN']}",
        "Idempotency-Key": str(uuid.uuid4()),
    },
    json={
        "endpointId": "justoneapi-api-douyin-search-user",
        "input": {
            "keyword": "<keyword>",
        },
        "wait": 30,
    },
    timeout=90,
)
run = response.json()
print(run["status"], run.get("result"))
```

To let looot pick among every provider of this job instead, send `job:douyin.search.users` as `endpointId`; see [the job page](/reference/jobs/douyin-search-users).
