Overview

WakeScrap exposes this TikTok endpoint as a live-data API. The platform keeps the documented request and response shape stable while unifying auth, request tracking, and credits billing.

Searches for TikTok users by keyword or name — useful for finding creators or accounts matching a query.

Paginate with `cursor` from the previous response.

Required params: query.
