# TikTok Profile Playlists API (https://www.socialcrawl.dev/platforms/tiktok/profile-playlists)

> Returns the playlists a TikTok creator has published on their profile, each with its playlist id, name, and the number of videos it contains under `post.ext.video_count`. Pass the playlist id to `/v1/tiktok/playlist/videos` to read the videos themselves. The video count is the account's own figure and is accurate; view totals are not exposed for a playlist, so `post.engagement` is null on every row.

TL;DR: `GET /v1/tiktok/profile/playlists` costs 1 credit per call and returns SocialCrawl's unified JSON schema. Single x-api-key auth, 100 free credits on signup.

## Parameters

| Parameter | Required | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `handle` | no | TikTok username without the @ symbol. |
| `user_id` | no | TikTok numeric user ID. Use this for faster responses. |
| `since` | no | Only rows published on or after this date: YYYY-MM-DD (midnight UTC) or an ISO 8601 timestamp. Rows older than it are left off each page. This list is not in date order, so the walk does not stop at the date: keep following `next_cursor`, and each page costs what a page costs even when every row on it is filtered out. A row with no date is kept. `published_after`, `start_date`, `from_date`, `publish_time` (`yesterday`, `this-week`, `this-month`, `last-3-months`, `last-6-months`) and `max_age_days` are accepted and applied as `since`. |
| `until` | no | Only rows published on or before this date: YYYY-MM-DD (that whole UTC day is included) or an ISO 8601 timestamp. Newer rows are left off each page and the walk does not stop, so older pages follow. A row with no date is kept. `published_before`, `end_date` and `to_date` are accepted and applied as `until`. |
