TikTok API

Videos, comments, accounts.

The TikTok API lets you search videos and read video details, comments, account profiles and an account's videos, with no TikTok account or login. Each call costs 2 credits ($0.004 to $0.0067); failed calls are free. Use it over HTTP with an API key, or through MCP from your AI client. Last tested 2026-10-17.

Does TikTok have an official API?

TikTok's API for reading public content at scale is the Research API, open only to approved academic and not-for-profit researchers in eligible regions, for non-commercial research. Its Display API reads only the profile and public videos of users who log in and authorise the app.
