Overview

Returns TikTok Creative Center's ranked trending hashtags for a country and period. TikTok gates this endpoint's full result set behind a logged-in TikTok One account: an anonymous request always receives at most 3 hashtags regardless of country or period. Developers commonly use this endpoint for data enrichment, monitoring, research dashboards, internal automation, and agent-native workflows that need repeatable structured public web data. Authentication uses the documented Crawlora headers, and usage is metered with the credit cost shown on this page.

Infrastructure behavior

This endpoint is executed through Crawlora's managed scraping infrastructure.

• Proxy strategy: managed automatically where needed
• Browser rendering: enabled for supported targets that require rendered HTML or JavaScript execution
• Browser cluster: supported dynamic workloads can be routed through distributed browser instances
• Retry behavior: automatic retry/fallback may be used depending on endpoint type
• Challenge handling: challenged pages or unusable upstream HTML are detected and surfaced clearly when they cannot be used
• Billing: credits are charged only for successful 2xx responses
• Observability: responses include request context where available

Browser cluster behavior

Some targets require real browser execution because the data is loaded through JavaScript, dynamic rendering, or interaction-like browser behavior.

For supported endpoints, Crawlora can route requests through a managed browser cluster. This allows Crawlora to execute JavaScript, load dynamic content, apply browser-level request behavior, and normalize the rendered result into JSON.

You do not need to operate your own Playwright, Puppeteer, Chrome, proxy, queue, or retry infrastructure.

Response behavior

- TikTok gates this endpoint's full result set behind a logged-in TikTok One account. An anonymous request always receives at most 3 hashtags (`total_count` is always `<= 3`), regardless of country or period. This was verified live across 10 countries and both periods. - Nonzero TikTok upstream response codes are returned as upstream errors. - `popularity_curve` is a daily time series (roughly one point per day of the requested period) showing the hashtag's relative popularity trend. - `top_creators` lists the top creators currently associated with the hashtag. Example response: ```json { "code": 200, "msg": "OK", "data": { "hashtags": [ { "hashtag_id": "7034820182681862190", "hashtag_name": "spidermanbrandnewday", "rank": 1, "publish_count": 155696, "video_views": 580603391, "industry_ids": [23000000000], "popularity_curve": [ { "timestamp": 1784851200, "value": 1.09 }, { "timestamp": 1785369600, "value": 100 } ], "top_creators": [ { "creator_id": "7517276699046887479", "tiktok_uid": "6699136201699640325", "handle": "spidermanmovie", "nickname": "Spider-Man Movie", "country_code": "US", "rank": 1, "follower_count": 5492852, "avatar_url": "https://example.tiktokcdn.com/avatar.jpeg" } ] } ], "total_count": 3 } } ```

Error behavior

Crawlora does not silently return bad data when the upstream page cannot be used.

When possible, Crawlora returns structured error context so your integration can retry, back off, or inspect the request.
