TikTok trending feed

Beta GET /v1/tiktok/trending

GET /v1/tiktok/trending

The anonymous For You feed: a handful of videos per call, different on every call (the feed is not stable, so pages can repeat).

  • Cost: 1 credit
  • Status: Beta. Built and tested against recorded responses; the shape may still gain fields.
  • Cache: Results are kept up to 1 day; send max_age_days to reuse them for free.
  • Timeout: A request still running after about 25 seconds answers 202 with a job to poll (Batch and jobs).

Parameters#

This endpoint takes no parameters of its own.

Every request also accepts:

  • cursor: the cursor from the previous page (Pagination).
  • region: two-letter country code for results that vary by country. Changing it restarts the cursor chain.
  • trim: true for a smaller response without null fields and extra.
  • raw: true to also get the platform's original object as raw.
  • max_age_days: accept a cached result up to this many days old, for 0 credits (Caching).

Example request#

Set your key in the environment first (see Authentication).
