List replies to a TikTok comment · TikTok API
Return the replies to a specific comment on a TikTok video, identified by the numeric video ID and comment ID, as a cursor-paginated list. Useful for following threaded conversations and analyzing audience discussion.

This operation is part of the TikTok API in the social platforms category. It uses the same Bearer token, request tracing, error model, and billing envelope as every UnifAPI endpoint, so agents can switch between platforms without custom per-vendor glue code.
Use it when a workflow needs TikTok public data alongside other social networks, but should still keep one API key, one account balance, and one predictable JSON contract.
Common agent workflows
- Pull public TikTok comment threads for sentiment, moderation, or audience-research agents.
- Collect top-level discussion around a post while preserving pagination and billing metadata.
- Give an AI agent a stable TikTok data source without building a per-platform integration.
- Normalize TikTok responses into the same UnifAPI envelope used across the catalog.
Unified envelope, platform-native fields
- List-style responses return `data` as an array of top-level records plus optional `pagination` for continuation tokens or cursors.
- The `billing.records_charged` field reports the charged billable-record quantity for the successful response.
- If the workspace balance cannot cover every result, the response can be truncated and `billing.truncated_due_to_balance` tells the caller why.
Response status codes
Billing
This operation charges 1 credit per billable record, with a 1 credit ($0.001) operation minimum. Public responses include billing metadata with credits charged, records charged, and remaining workspace balance. Incorrect Credit deductions caused by platform failures can be restored as billing corrections.
Errors and retries
Authentication, validation, rate-limit, not-found, and provider errors use the unified UnifAPI error format. Agents should log `request_id`, retry only retryable failures, and treat invalid API keys, disabled keys, and expired keys as the same public `unauthorized` error type.
Fields on each record in data
A successful List replies to a TikTok comment call returns data as an array; each record carries these fields.
- idstring
- video_idstring
- textstring
- create_timeinteger
- like_countinteger
- reply_countinteger
- is_author_likedboolean
- authorobject
- Lightweight author descriptor embedded in Video and Comment.
Agents & Skills built on TikTok
You rarely call List replies to a TikTok comment by hand. These prebuilt agents and skills already read TikTok data inside Claude or Codex — start from one of them, or call this endpoint yourself.
