ReachSocial - One API for social media data.

TikTok Profile

tiktok_profile
Idempotent

Retrieve normalized public TikTok profile metadata. Use for one account's public profile metadata. For its posts/videos, use tiktok_feed. Returns profile metadata without retaining avatars or videos. An entitled B2B API key executes immediately under the client's billing and spending limits. OAuth requires an approved owner wallet connection and creates a $0.05 USDC payment request on Base; execution waits for browser approval/payment. Then use get_reachsocial_request with the returned request_id. Preserve the idempotency_key for retries; changed input needs a new key. Invalid/private/unavailable targets and access, rate, or spend limits return errors.

Input Schema

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
urlYesCanonical TikTok profile URL. Supply a full https:// URL, not a handle or search query.
idempotency_keyYesThe calling agent/client generates this key automatically; do not ask the user to invent it. OAuth requires a random 32–255 character key (for example a UUID); B2B accepts 1–255 characters. Save it with the exact inputs before calling and reuse it with identical input to recover without duplicate billing. Use a new key for a different target, item limit, or page.

Output Schema

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
dataNoDirect B2B normalized profile, item, or items; feeds may include next_cursor and has_more.
metaNoDirect B2B schema/normalization versions, response shape, and latency.
cachedNoWhether a direct B2B response reused cached normalized data.
resultNoStored execution response after OAuth payment; contains normalized data or a terminal failure.
statusYesB2B success or the current OAuth payment/execution state.
messageNoAction or recovery guidance for the current request state.
serviceYesCatalog service ID, such as instagram.profile.
request_idYesStored request identifier; preserve it for recovery.
payment_urlNoOwner browser link for USDC payment approval; present when payment is required.
price_centsNoOAuth request price in USD cents.
transactionNoSettled payment transaction identifier, when available.
payment_statusNoStored settlement state; uncertainty requires retrieval, never a new payment.
payment_endpointNoOwner-only acceptance endpoint, present only during an explicitly enabled validation run.

  3. First observed

TDQS

A4.6/5.0
Behavior5/5

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?

Goes well beyond the annotations: it discloses that avatars/videos are not retained, that a B2B key bills immediately under client spending limits, and that OAuth creates a $0.05 USDC payment request on Base requiring browser approval. It also enumerates the failure surface (private/unavailable targets, access/rate/spend limits) and the idempotency-retry contract, none of which the annotations convey.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness4/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

Front-loads purpose and the sibling alternative before the billing and error detail, and every sentence carries new information. It is dense with seven sentences, but the payment-path and idempotency sentences are load-bearing rather than filler.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness5/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

An output schema exists so return shape need not be explained, and the description covers the remaining complexity: dual auth/billing paths, asynchronous approval flow, follow-up call, idempotency, and error conditions. An agent has everything needed to invoke it correctly on either path.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters3/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema description coverage is 100%, so both parameters are already fully documented, including the URL format and the idempotency-key reuse rule. The description only restates the idempotency retry guidance and adds nothing about syntax or key format beyond the schema, so the baseline 3 applies.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose5/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

States a specific verb and resource ('Retrieve normalized public TikTok profile metadata') and immediately scopes it to one account. It explicitly names the sibling to use instead for a different need ('For its posts/videos, use tiktok_feed'), so an agent can distinguish it from tiktok_feed and tiktok_video without opening a schema.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines5/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

Gives explicit routing: use this for one account's profile metadata, use tiktok_feed for posts/videos, and use get_reachsocial_request with the returned request_id after the OAuth payment path. It also tells the agent which credential path executes immediately vs. which one waits, which is the key decision an agent has to make before calling.

Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
