Get your API key at https://scrapecreators.com

How to Call

All endpoints use GET requests. Pass query params in the URL and authenticate with the x-api-key header. Responses are JSON.

curl -s "https://api.scrapecreators.com/v1/tiktok/profile?handle=charlidamelio" \
  -H "x-api-key: $SCRAPECREATORS_API_KEY"

Or with fetch:

const res = await fetch(
  "https://api.scrapecreators.com/v1/tiktok/profile?handle=charlidamelio",
  { headers: { "x-api-key": process.env.SCRAPECREATORS_API_KEY } }
);
const data = await res.json();

Endpoint paths use the pattern /v1/platform/action. The tables below list each endpoint path and its required params.

API Spec

Each endpoint has its own OpenAPI spec at https://docs.scrapecreators.com/{path}/openapi.json.

For example: https://docs.scrapecreators.com/v1/tiktok/profile/openapi.json

Important: Once you've determined which endpoint(s) to call from the routing tables below, fetch the single-endpoint OpenAPI spec first to get the full parameter details, types, and example response before making the actual API call.

The full spec covering all endpoints is at https://docs.scrapecreators.com/openapi.json (large file — prefer the per-endpoint specs above).

Intent Routing

Map user intent to the right endpoint. After selecting an endpoint, fetch its OpenAPI spec at https://docs.scrapecreators.com/{path}/openapi.json for full param details before calling.
