The response reference lists every field, its type and when it is null. See the full schema.
Null means unknown
A field Pillar doesn't show is null, never zero or an empty string, so a real zero always means zero.
What it accepts
The Pillar page: its name, with or without the @, a page link (pillar.io/ninja), or the creator's ID.
Write one parser
Pillar, TikTok, Instagram and 24 more platforms answer in these fields, so the code that reads one reads them all.
platformstring- Platform ID (tiktok, youtube, …).
idstring- Platform-native account ID (string; YouTube UC…, Reddit t2_…).
usernamestring- Handle without the @; null when the account has none.
display_namestring- Display name, channel title or page name; null when empty or not exposed.
urlstring- Canonical profile URL.
typestring- Coarse account kind, as the platform labels it; unknown when it does not (TikTok labels organizations only). New values may be added; treat unknown values as unknown.
biostring- Profile bio, channel description or page about text; null when empty or not exposed.
avatar_urlstring- Profile picture URL (largest available). Platform CDN URLs can expire within hours.
Live data from 33 platforms.

Size a creator's audience across platforms
Good to know before you build.
- Only what the page shows is returned: links, products and icons the creator hid, and unpublished courses, are left out.
- metrics.follower_count is the Audience total the media kit shows, across the creator's connected accounts. Pillar pages have no followers of their own.
- follower_count is null when the page shows no total, and platform_specific.pillar.audience lists only the accounts the page breaks out.
- Audience counts are as Pillar last read them from each platform, so they can lag that platform's own count.
- metrics.following_count, post_count, total_like_count and total_view_count, category, country_code and is_private are null: Pillar pages have none of them.
- type is organization for an agency and unknown otherwise.
- A product's price is null when the page shows none.
- A page on a creator's own domain is reached by its pillar.io name.
- If Pillar answers only part of a page, the header and social accounts come back with a partial_data warning naming the rest.
