# TikTok Hashtag API (https://www.socialcrawl.dev/platforms/tiktok/hashtag)

> Returns TikTok's own record for a hashtag: its display name, its description where the platform has written one, and the two numbers that size it. `post.engagement.views` is the total views of videos under the tag and it is live, moving between calls minutes apart. `post.ext.video_count` is how many videos carry the tag. Pass either the tag name or, if you already have it, TikTok's numeric hashtag id. Use `/v1/tiktok/search/hashtag` to read the videos themselves.

TL;DR: `GET /v1/tiktok/hashtag` costs 1 credit per call and returns SocialCrawl's unified JSON schema. Single x-api-key auth, 100 free credits on signup.

## Parameters

| Parameter | Required | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `hashtag` | no | Hashtag name, with or without the leading # symbol. |
| `hashtag_id` | no | TikTok numeric hashtag id. Skips the name lookup when you already have it. |

## Code example

```bash
curl "https://www.socialcrawl.dev/v1/tiktok/hashtag" \
  -H "x-api-key: sc_YOUR_API_KEY"
```
