How to Get Product and Video Information Using ZOCAILMINE API

Introduction

Accessing TikTok data programmatically is notoriously difficult due to aggressive anti-scraping measures and dynamic encryption. Developers often struggle with signature generation (_signature) or maintaining headless browser farms. ZOCAILMINE simplifies this by providing a RESTful gateway to raw TikTok data.

In this guide, we will explore how to fetch public profile data and video details using a simple HTTP request, abstracting away the complex reverse engineering.

Concept: The URL-to-Data Pipeline

The core concept is "Input URL, Output JSON." Instead of navigating the DOM, you pass a clean TikTok URL to our endpoints. Based on the logic in our client SDK, we categorize requests into distinct types such as posts-url (for single video data) and profile (for user stats).

Comparison: Official API vs. ZOCAILMINE

Code Example: Fetching a Profile

To get profile information, we target the /api/v1/tiktok/profile endpoint. You only need the target user's URL.

// Example using Axios (similar to the executeApi function in our SDK)
import axios from 'axios';

const getProfile = async (targetUrl: string, apiKey: string) => {
  try {
    const response = await axios.post('[https://api.zocailmine.com/api/v1/tiktok/profile](https://api.zocailmine.com/api/v1/tiktok/profile)', {
      url: targetUrl
    }, {
      headers: {
        'x-api-key': apiKey,
        'Content-Type': 'application/json'
      }
    });

    return response.data;
  } catch (error) {
    console.error("Scraping failed:", error.message);
  }
};

// Usage
getProfile('[https://www.tiktok.com/@tiktok](https://www.tiktok.com/@tiktok)', 'YOUR_API_KEY');
