SearchAPI.io - TikTok Video API

SearchAPI.io tool searchapi-io-tiktok-video on looot: input fields, $0.004 per call, output shape, and code to run it with curl, JavaScript or Python.

Retrieve structured data for a single TikTok video (or photo carousel) from its URL. The response includes the caption, publish time, duration, thumbnails, engagement counts, encoding metadata, subtitle tracks, the sound it uses, and the hashtags and mentions parsed from the caption, along with the author’s profile details. Photo carousels also include the full-resolution slide images. Send url, or both video_id and username.

• Tool id: searchapi-io-tiktok-video
• Provider: SearchAPI.io
• Job: Tiktok video search (search.tiktok-video)
• Price: $0.004 per call. A call that fails at the provider costs $0.

Inputs

Output

The run’s result holds the provider’s answer. Signed in, looot inspect searchapi-io-tiktok-video 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)" \
  -d '{"endpointId":"searchapi-io-tiktok-video","input":{"url":"jane.doe@example.com","engine":"tiktok_video"},"wait":30}'

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: "searchapi-io-tiktok-video",
    input: {
      url: "jane.doe@example.com",
      engine: "tiktok_video",
    },
    wait: 30,
  }),
});
const run = await response.json();
console.log(run.status, run.result);
