Utility Endpoints API
Scrape Utility Endpoints data with one API call. Machine-readable catalog of every active SocialCrawl endpoint: path, method, platform, credit cost, required and optional parameters, response archetype, and a link to the per-endpoint usage guide. Generated from the endpoint registry at request time, so it never drifts from what is callable. Free to call.
Last updated August 2026Maintained by the SocialCrawl team
Returns a catalogue of every endpoint you can call: path, method, platform, credit cost, required and optional parameters, and a link to its usage guide.
Use it to discover what is available or filter by platform. For one endpoint's full instructions, call the endpoint guide. Free to call.

What can you do with the Endpoints API?
The Endpoints endpoint gives you structured Utility 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/utility/endpoints"import requests
response = requests.get(
"https://www.socialcrawl.dev/v1/utility/endpoints",
headers={"x-api-key": "YOUR_API_KEY"},
)
data = response.json()const response = await fetch(
"https://www.socialcrawl.dev/v1/utility/endpoints",
{
headers: { "x-api-key": "YOUR_API_KEY" },
},
);
const data = await response.json();Parameters
| Parameter | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
| platform | No | Filter the catalog to a single platform slug (e.g. tiktok) |
| search | No | Case-insensitive substring filter over endpoint paths and summaries |
| method | No | Filter by HTTP method (GET | POST) |
