TikTok Profile Full API
Returns a TikTok profile plus its latest 10 videos and computed stats: engagement rate by views and by followers, posting cadence, the top post, and the mix of formats.
GET /v1/tiktok/profile/fullLast updated October 2026Maintained by the SocialCrawl team
When to use the TikTok Profile Full API
Use it instead of profile when you want the account, its recent posts, and the engagement maths in one call rather than three.
From the API reference
Fans out to the TikTok profile and recent-posts endpoints in parallel and returns the unified author, the recent-post list, and computed metrics: avg_engagement_rate, avg_engagement_rate_by_followers, posting cadence (with the window it was measured over), the top post, and the format mix. avg_engagement_rate is view-based: the mean of each post's (likes + comments + shares) / views, so only posts that carry a view count contribute, and it is null when none does. avg_engagement_rate_by_followers is the mean of likes + comments per post divided by the account's follower count, over every post that carries both, so it covers posts with no view count. One call reads one page of recent posts, which on TikTok is 10 videos, and computes the metrics over that page: posts can shorten the window but not lengthen it past one page, and _warnings says so when fewer posts came back than posts asked for. Pass posts_cursor back as cursor to read the next page, 5 credits a call. The profile leg is the only critical leg: if posts can't be fetched the call still returns the profile with post-dependent metrics null, and every leg's status is surfaced in legs[]. Flat 5 credits.

What can you do with the Profile Full API?
The Profile Full endpoint gives you structured TikTok data with computed fields in a single request. No scraping infrastructure to build or maintain.
Example Request
# GET /v1/tiktok/profile/full: 5 credits per call. Cache hits are free and failed calls are refunded.
# Check the price first for 0 credits: add dry_run=1 to the query. Nothing is fetched or charged.
# --max-time 36: this endpoint's measured p99 latency x 1.5.
# --retry 3: retries timeouts, 429 and 5xx, honoring Retry-After.
# -o response.json keeps only the final attempt's body.
# One Idempotency-Key per request, reused on every retry, so a retried call is never charged twice.

| Parameter | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
| handle | No | TikTok username or handle, with or without a leading @. One of the identity params is required. |
| user_id | No | Numeric TikTok user id. Use it instead of the handle when you already have the stable id, which survives a rename. One of the identity params is required. |
| posts | No | How many of the fetched recent posts to return and compute the metrics over (1-100, default 25). One call reads one page, which on TikTok is 10 videos, so a larger value returns that page and a `_warnings` note; pass posts_cursor back as cursor for the next page. |
| cursor | No | Pass a prior response's posts_cursor to read the next page of posts. Each call is a separate 5-credit call whose metrics cover that page only. |
| include | No | CSV subset of posts,computed (default both). include=computed omits the raw posts[] array from the response to save payload. The metrics are computed from the same fetched posts either way, so they do not change. |
What does the TikTok Profile Full API return?
Every response follows one unified schema. Here is a real, unmodified response body, so you can see the exact fields you get back before spending a credit.
