FAQ
Before you wire it in
Do I need a TikTok account or developer access?
No. The only credential is your HasData key. Every tool reads the public pages a signed-out visitor sees, so there is no developer programme to apply for.
How is this different from TikTok's own APIs?
The Research API is application-gated to approved researchers in eligible regions, and the Display API only reaches an account that has authorised you. Neither is a self-serve way to read public profiles and videos at large, which is what these four tools do.
How do I read a whole account rather than one page?
The posts tool returns a <code>nextPageToken</code>. Hand it back on the next call and you get the following page. Search and comments page the same way, so an agent can walk history without guessing an offset.
Can I get replies to a specific comment?
Yes. Pass that comment’s id as <code>commentId</code> and the comments tool returns its replies instead of the video’s top level.
How fresh is the data? Is anything cached?
Every tool call fetches the page at that moment, so play and like counts are the ones on screen right now. Nothing is served from a cache.
What about personal data?
A profile and a comment are personal data even when they are public. HasData reads publicly available pages only, and you are responsible for having a lawful basis for what you collect and store under GDPR, CCPA or the equivalent rules where you operate.
How many calls can run in parallel?
One on the free tier, five on Startup, fifteen on Basic, and fifty on Growth. The larger Growth volumes raise it to 200, 300 and 500.
What happens when I run out of credits?
Nothing is charged on top of the plan. Calls stop until the billing cycle renews.
Does it work with Claude Desktop, Cursor, VS Code and Claude Code?
Yes, all four, plus anything else that speaks MCP over streamable HTTP. Claude Desktop connects through OAuth, and the rest take the URL and an API key header.
Is HasData affiliated with TikTok?
No. HasData is an independent service and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by TikTok Ltd. TikTok is a trademark of its respective owner.
