Real responses are complete. ## One schema on 6 platforms. The [response reference](https://socialtap.dev/docs/reference/tiktok/playlists/index.md#response) lists every field, its type and when it is `null`. [See the full schema](https://socialtap.dev/resources/playlist/index.md). - ### Null means unknown A field TikTok doesn't show is null, never zero or an empty string, so a real zero always means zero. - ### What it accepts TikTok username with or without the @, a profile URL (tiktok.com/@tiktok), a numeric user ID or a secUid (MS4wLjABAAAA…). - ### Write one parser TikTok, Instagram, Spotify and 3 more platforms answer in these fields, so the code that reads one reads them all. - **`platform`string**: Platform ID (tiktok, youtube, facebook, …). - **`id`string**: Platform-native playlist ID (string): TikTok's playlist (mix) or collection ID, YouTube's list ID (PL…), Facebook's video list ID. - **`url`string**: Canonical playlist URL. - **`type`string**: playlist: a list its owner curates and orders (TikTok playlists, YouTube playlists, Facebook playlists and series); collection: posts an account saved from any creator into a named public folder (TikTok collections). New values may be added; treat unknown values as playlist. - **`platform_type`string**: The platform's own label, lowercase (mix, collection, playlist, series, podcast, …). - **`title`string**: Name its owner gave it. - **`description`string**: Description as plain text; null when it has none or the platform shows none (TikTok). - **`owner`object**: The account that curates it (for a collection, the account that saved the posts, not their authors). Where a platform's curators are not accounts (Apple Music), what it states of them: a name, perhaps a page and a picture, with id and username null, and every field null when it names no one.
