## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability api-direct-tiktok-user-search-0067953f
```

Example prompt: Search TikTok for users related to 'sustainable fashion' and pull back 3 pages of results so I can find potential influencers to reach out to.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need to discover or enumerate TikTok user accounts by keyword or topic, especially for influencer research, brand monitoring, or competitor analysis. It is better than hashtag-based endpoints when your goal is to find creators rather than content. Supports pagination for broad sweeps of up to 300 users per query.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or empty query string returns an error
- Requested page count exceeds maximum of 10 pages
- TikTok rate limiting or blocking may cause incomplete results
- Keyword returning zero results yields an empty user list
- Billing occurs per page fetched, even if results are sparse

## How this service works
