  • author.nameThe author's display name.
  • author.verifiedWhether the author is verified.

Every item also has platform, id, ref, approx and type; the response around the items is the same on every call. Response format

What to expect.

One call returns the first page only, up to 20 items, with no cursor, for 2 credits.
A call that runs and finds nothing is a successful call: status is "empty", items is empty, and it costs 2 credits.
On this call Douyin cannot tell a video that does not exist from one with no data: both come back as empty, and both are charged.

1 call per second per key, 5 after a purchase; going over is not charged. Rate limits

A failed call costs 0 credits and is never retried on its own. Error codes

Questions.
Short answers.

Everything on Douyin
Do I need a Douyin account or Douyin's own API access?
No. You only need a SocialToAI key. The call returns content and account information publicly visible on Douyin; you never sign in to Douyin or apply for anything there.
Can I get the next page?
No. On Douyin this interface gives its first page only (up to 20 items): the response carries no cursor, and page.has_more is always false.
