TikTok Song Videos API
Scrape TikTok Song Videos data with one API call. Returns videos that use a specific TikTok sound/song. Each video includes engagement metrics, author info, and caption. `data.adoption` counts those videos by the day in `published_at`, says how many rows had no date, and sets `returning` when an old sound's first page is mostly from the last three days. The curve is global: these rows do not carry a region. `use=1` also files each caption into lip-sync, tutorial, before-and-after, greeting-card reveal, or none. No extra credits. To record how many videos use the sound every day, create a Monitor on /v1/tiktok/song that tracks `post.engagement.views`; see /docs/recipes/track-sound-growth.

Returns videos that use a given TikTok sound, each with caption, author details, and engagement counts.
Use it to see how a sound is being used and page through those videos; song returns only the sound's own details.

What can you do with the Song Videos API?
The Song Videos endpoint gives you structured TikTok data with computed fields in a single request. No scraping infrastructure to build or maintain.
Example Request
curl -H "x-api-key: YOUR_API_KEY" \
"https://www.socialcrawl.dev/v1/tiktok/song/videos?clipId=7439295283975702544"import requests
response = requests.get(
"https://www.socialcrawl.dev/v1/tiktok/song/videos",
params={
'clipId': '7439295283975702544',
},
headers={"x-api-key": "YOUR_API_KEY"},
)
data = response.json()const response = await fetch(
"https://www.socialcrawl.dev/v1/tiktok/song/videos?clipId=7439295283975702544",
{
headers: { "x-api-key": "YOUR_API_KEY" },
},
);
const data = await response.json();Parameters
| Parameter | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
| clipId | No | TikTok sound/song clip ID |
| cursor | No | The cursor to get the next page of results. |
| use | No | Optional. 1 adds data.adoption.uses, a count of what the captions are doing with the sound. Omit it and the date histogram is still returned. |
| since | No | Only rows published on or after this date: YYYY-MM-DD (midnight UTC) or an ISO 8601 timestamp. Rows older than it are left off each page. This list is not in date order, so the walk does not stop at the date: keep following `next_cursor`, and each page costs what a page costs even when every row on it is filtered out. A row with no date is kept. `published_after`, `start_date`, `from_date`, `publish_time` (`yesterday`, `this-week`, `this-month`, `last-3-months`, `last-6-months`) and `max_age_days` are accepted and applied as `since`. |
| until | No | Only rows published on or before this date: YYYY-MM-DD (that whole UTC day is included) or an ISO 8601 timestamp. Newer rows are left off each page and the walk does not stop, so older pages follow. A row with no date is kept. `published_before`, `end_date` and `to_date` are accepted and applied as `until`. |
What does the TikTok Song Videos 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.
