Step-by-step: Read on-screen text from TikTok and Instagram posts
Returns one TikTok video in full: caption, engagement counts, author, sound, video metadata, and any on-screen text the creator typed with TikTok's text tool (post.ext.on_screen_texts).
Use it when you already have a video URL and want that single video's numbers, rather than a list from profile/videos or search.
10 credits per call.
Authorization
apiKey Your key from the dashboard. It starts with isk_.
In: header
Query Parameters
Full URL of the TikTok video
Two-letter country code for the proxy region (US, GB, FR, PH). The primary source does not take a region, so it is honoured only when a fallback source serves the request; a region-locked video (commonly from the Philippines) that fails on the primary is retried on the fallback with this value.
Accepted for compatibility; the response is already the canonical shape, so this flag has no effect.
Set to true to also download the video/images and get back durable hosted media URLs under data.post.ext.download_media_urls ([{ post_id, cdn_url, type, cached }]). Use these for archiving; the raw media_urls are short-lived signed CDN links that expire. Adds a few seconds of latency while the media is fetched.
Set to 1 to get the price of this call without making it: data.dry_run carries credits_min and credits_max. Nothing is charged.
