## TikTok Comment Replies API at a glance

Returns the public replies to a top-level comment on a TikTok video or photo post, a page at a time. Each reply has its text, exact posting time and like count, the replier's username, name, ID and verified badge, its language, the comment it answers, and whether the creator wrote or liked it. Send a comment link, or the post's link and comment_id.

Long arrays and strings are shortened here. Real responses are complete.

## One schema on 9 platforms.

The [response reference](https://socialtap.dev/docs/reference/tiktok/replies/index.md#response) lists every field, its type and when it is `null`. [See the full schema](https://socialtap.dev/resources/comment/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

  The TikTok video or photo post the comment is on: a tiktok.com/@user/video/\<id> or /@user/photo/\<id> link, m.tiktok.com/v/\<id>.html, embed and player URLs, vm.tiktok.com/\<code>, vt.tiktok.com/\<code>, tiktok.com/t/\<code> or a numeric video ID; or a comment link (TikTok's comment share link with share_comment_id, or a video link with comment_id), which names the comment too.
- ### Write one parser

  TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and 6 more platforms answer in these fields, so the code that reads one reads them all.

- **`platform`string**: Platform ID (tiktok, youtube, …).
- **`id`string**: Platform-native comment ID (string; Reddit with its t1_ prefix).
- **`post_id`string**: ID of the post commented on (equals post.id).
- **`parent_id`string**: ID of the comment this replies to; null for top-level comments.
- **`url`string**: Permalink, when the platform has one.
- **`text`string**: Comment body as plain text.
- **`author`object**: The commenting account. An account the platform no longer names (a deleted account) has a null id and username and the platform's label as display_name (Reddit: \[deleted\]).
- **`published_at`string**: When the comment was posted, RFC 3339 UTC. Where the platform shows only a relative time ("3 weeks ago"), the latest time that label allows (the fetch time minus the stated amount), listed in approximate_fields.

Live data from 33 platforms.

## What teams build with the TikTok Comment Replies API.

- ### Read the conversation under a viral comment
- ### See how a creator answers in replies
- ### Rebuild full comment threads for research

## Good to know before you build.

- comment_id must be a top-level comment: a reply's ID returns invalid_input naming its top-level comment.
- TikTok doesn't order replies by time, so since and until aren't offered.
- A comment that isn't on the video returns not_found, and private videos and videos with comments off return private_or_unavailable.

## 1 credit per page. Failed requests are free.

Buy credits once and spend them on any endpoint, on any platform.

[Plans and packs](https://socialtap.dev/pricing/index.md) · [How this endpoint is priced](https://socialtap.dev/docs/reference/tiktok/replies/index.md#pricing) · [How credits work](https://socialtap.dev/docs/credits/index.md)

| Source | Price per successful page | Per 1,000 pages |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Platform API `api` | 1 credit | $0.75–$1.97 |

- Cache hits are free.
- Credits from packs and top-ups never expire.
- A monthly plan's credits are spent first, and what is left of them ends at each renewal.
- Prices exclude tax: sales tax is added at checkout where it applies.
- Outside the US, plans and packs are sold to businesses: checkout asks for your VAT, GST or other business tax ID.

## Questions about the TikTok Comment Replies API.

More in the [API reference](https://socialtap.dev/docs/reference/tiktok/replies/index.md).

**How much does the TikTok Comment Replies API cost?**

A page of up to 50 replies costs 1 credit. Every successful page is charged, empty pages included. SocialTap credits cost $0.75–$1.97 per 1,000, depending on the plan or pack.

**How do I get the next page?**

Repeat the same request with cursor set to page.next_cursor from the previous response, keeping the other parameters. When page.has_more is false there are no more pages. Cursors expire after 24 hours.
