1 credit per callFresh within 5 minutesMCP tool: tiktok_product
GEThttps://api.lurkapi.com/v1/tiktok/product

Example response

When to use this

Use it to check a product sold on the US TikTok Shop: its description, price, variants and stock, seller, category, sales and rating. Pass the product's shop.tiktok.com URL or its id.

Prices are decimal strings, as the logged-out US storefront shows them. Discounts at checkout and shipping can differ. Sales and review counts are lifetime totals, not a history, and review text isn't included. US products only.

Example request

Copy one and replace YOUR_API_KEY with your API key (get one free). The code versions read the key from the LURKAPI_API_KEY environment variable instead.

Language

Parameters

Add them to the URL after a ?. Join several with &.

Cost and freshness

Each call costs 1 credit. Calls turned away before they reach the platform (invalid parameters, a key or balance problem, a rate limit) are free, and so are 5xx errors. A not_found is charged, since the platform was checked. How charging works.

Answers are cached for up to 5 minutes. A repeat call within that time can return the same data, and costs the same.

Errors

A failed call returns success: false, an error message, a code your program can check, and a docs link. These are the errors this endpoint can return. All error codes.

StatusCodeMeaning
401missing_api_keyNo API key was sent. Put it in the x-api-key header.
401invalid_api_keyThis key doesn't exist or was revoked.
402insufficient_creditsNot enough credits for this call. Buy a pack, or wait for tomorrow's free top-up.
402over_max_creditsThis call would cost more than the max_credits you set. The error says what it needs; raise max_credits to allow it. Not charged.
403account_suspendedThis account is suspended. Email support@lurkapi.com. Not charged.
404not_foundWhat you asked for (a post, an ad, a subreddit) doesn't exist, or there's no endpoint at that path. Charged if the platform was checked.
405method_not_allowedEndpoints only take GET, with parameters in the URL.
429rate_limitedToo many calls in a short time. Wait as many seconds as the retry-after header says, then retry.
500internal_errorSomething broke on our side. Retry. Not charged.
502upstream_errorThe platform didn't send a usable answer. Retry. Not charged.
503upstream_busyAll our connections to the platform are busy. Retry in a few seconds. Not charged.
504upstream_timeoutThe platform took over 30 seconds to answer (90 for web pages). Retry. Not charged.

Use it in Claude

Connect LurkAPI to Claude and ask in plain English. This endpoint is the tiktok_product tool. For example:

Ask Claude
Use LurkAPI's tiktok_product tool with url "https://shop.tiktok.com/us/pdp/biodance-collagen-mask-pdrn-sea-kelp-overnight-hydration/1732049122233848586", then summarize what you find.

Claude calls tiktok_product with arguments like these, and each call costs 1 credit:

Tool arguments
{"url": "https://shop.tiktok.com/us/pdp/biodance-collagen-mask-pdrn-sea-kelp-overnight-hydration/1732049122233848586"}

To save tokens, tool results leave out empty fields, keep one URL per image or video, and give transcripts as plain text unless you pass timestamps=true. A result over 45,000 characters comes in parts. Its _note gives the offset for the next part, and later parts are free for 15 minutes. Pass trim=false for the full response.
