nullFields Douyin cannot give

Read null as “Douyin did not give this”, not as zero. These are always null on this call:

  • author.verifiedWhether the author is verified.
  • author.followersThe author's follower count.
  • metrics.viewsViews or plays.
  • metrics.repostsReposts.
  • is_pinnedWhether the author pinned it.

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 a page of up to 10 items. When page.has_more is true, send page.cursor back as cursor for the next page; each page costs 2 credits and a cursor works for 30 minutes.
A call that runs and finds nothing is a successful call: status is "empty", items is empty, and it costs 2 credits.

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

Once connected over MCP, these questions use it.

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.

from all of social media.
