Scrape Creators API / Top Search
ScrapeCreators tool scrapecreators-tiktok-search-top on looot: input fields, $0.00188 per call, output shape, and code to run it with curl, JavaScript or Python.
Searches TikTok’s ‘Top’ results by query, returns both videos and photo carousels, unlike keyword search which only returns videos. Returns items, an array of objects each with id, desc (caption), content_type (video or photo carousel), statistics (play_count, digg_count/likes, comment_count, share_count), video info, and images for carousels. Paginate with cursor. TikTok may return duplicate results.

Output
The run’s result holds the provider’s answer. Signed in, looot inspect scrapecreators-tiktok-search-top prints its fields.
Run it
Every call needs your API token in LOOOT_TOKEN; Sign in 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:
curl -X POST "https://api.looot.ai/v1/runs" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $LOOOT_TOKEN" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-H "Idempotency-Key: $(uuidgen)" \
