Look up a TikTok account by handle. Get its bio, external link, follower, following, like, video and friend counts, and creation date. Use the handle with or without @, not a profile URL or a Douyin secUid. Private analytics are not included.

Send POST https://api.everyinfra.com/api/v1/social with platform set to tiktok and action set to profile. Price $0.56 per 1,000 requests ($0.000556 per call). Failed calls and empty results are not charged. Synchronous. For slow jobs add "mode": "async" to the body, take the job_id and poll.

AI prompt

Please help me write a data collection script with the EveryInfra TikTok Details endpoint (tiktok/profile).

How the endpoint works:
- Request: POST https://api.everyinfra.com/api/v1/social with the header Authorization: Bearer <API key>. Read the key from the EVERYINFRA_API_KEY environment variable and never hard-code it.
- In the request body, set platform to tiktok and action to profile, and put the parameters inside params.
- Required parameters:
- username: Public TikTok handle, which may optionally include the leading @. Do not supply Douyin secUid tokens or full profile URLs. In followers, this returns follower counts.
- Returns one object. Main fields: user_id, username, display_name, bio, url, external_url, follower_count, following_count, like_count, video_count, friend_count, is_verified; 15 fields in total, full list at https://api.everyinfra.com/api/v1/social/catalog?platform=tiktok.
- Example request body:
{
"platform": "tiktok",
"action": "profile",
"params": {
"username": "nasa"
}
}
- Price: $0.56 per 1,000 requests; failed and empty results are not charged.
- For dozens or hundreds of targets, add "mode": "async" to the body: you get a job_id at once and poll GET https://api.everyinfra.com/api/v1/jobs/{job_id} for the result.
- On 422, fix the request using the suggested parameter names and allowed values in the error; on 429 or 503, wait for Retry-After and try again.

Before writing code, ask me which targets I need, how many, which fields, and what output format I want; then confirm the plan and the rough cost with me.

  --data-raw '{

TikTok: Differences Between Username and Display Nickname ↗
TikTok separates username from nickname: username forms the @ handle and profile URL, while nickname is the display name shown to other users. Changing a username will also change the profile URL.
