TikTok User Following Scraper API

The TikTok User Following endpoint is one API call: send an account handle with your HProxy key and get back a clean, structured JSON object. Pull every account a TikTok profile follows, page by page, with usernames, IDs and per-account follower counts. HProxy runs the proxies, sessions, anti-bot handling and parsing server-side, so there is no headless browser to babysit and no parser to keep fixing when TikTok changes its markup. You only ever touch the JSON. Longer result sets come back page by page with a cursor, so you can walk the whole set without holding it in memory.

The call

One GET, and the user following comes back as JSON.

Your key goes in one header. 1 required parameter, and the answer is the object below it.

How it works

Scraping TikTok user following, in three steps.

You write one line. Proxies, anti-bot walls, rendering and parsing happen on our side.

The reference

Send one authenticated HTTPS request to the TikTok User Following endpoint with an account handle and your HProxy API key. Pull every account a TikTok profile follows, page by page, with usernames, IDs and per-account follower counts. No proxies, no headless browser and no parsing on your side. The response is ready-to-use JSON.

This endpoint is 0.15¢ per successful call, which is $1.49 per 1,000. It bills from your HProxy balance with no subscription and no monthly minimum. Errors are retried and never charged; a lookup whose target does not exist counts as a call.

No. Every call runs on HProxy's own residential network behind the scenes, so requests look like real users. The proxy layer is already included in the per-call price.

A structured JSON object with the full user following data TikTok exposes publicly. See the fields listed above. The schema is consistent across calls, so you integrate once and rely on it.

Yes. The response carries a cursor; pass it back on the next call to continue from where you stopped. Each page is one billable call, so you only pay for the depth you actually pull.

The API only accesses publicly available TikTok data, the same pages anyone can open in a browser. You are responsible for using the data in line with applicable laws and TikTok's terms for your use case.

Docs and AI

Connect your scraper to an AI, any time.

The whole Scraper API is published as markdown, so an assistant reads every endpoint, every parameter and a real response without a key and writes your integration. And because a scrape is one GET that answers in JSON, an agent can run the scraper itself, on its own schedule, with your key.

An agent can call it

One GET with your key returns structured JSON, so an agent scrapes on its own schedule. No browser to drive, no parser to keep alive between runs.

More on the TikTok User Following API

What the TikTok User Following endpoint returns

Pull every account a TikTok profile follows, page by page, with usernames, IDs and per-account follower counts. The JSON object carries users[], count and cursor. Nothing is summarised away on our side, so what you read in the response is what the TikTok user following page itself holds.

What you send to the TikTok User Following API

The call takes an account handle. Required: handle. Optional: min_time and trim. Your key travels in the X-API-Key header, the response is JSON, and the call is billed at 0.15¢, $1.49 per 1,000.

Is scraping TikTok user following allowed?

The endpoint reads publicly available TikTok data, the same pages anyone can open in a browser without logging in. It does not touch private accounts or anything behind a password. How you then use the data is yours to keep lawful, under the rules that apply to you and to TikTok.

Ready when you are.

Your dashboard is ten seconds away. No sales call, no subscription, no minimum.
