## 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 scrape-creators-tiktok-hashtag-search-dbb2c6e1
```

Example prompt: Can you search TikTok for the hashtag #BookTok and pull back the videos and engagement data showing up under that tag?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to discover TikTok content or creators by topic tag, conduct hashtag-based trend research, monitor brand or campaign hashtags on TikTok, or gather competitive intelligence about what content is performing under specific tags. Prefer this over TikTok's official API when you need scraping-based access without OAuth or when official API limits are a constraint.

## Known failure modes

- Hashtag not found or no results — returns empty result set
- Invalid or missing hashtag parameter — returns 400 error
- TikTok rate limiting or anti-scraping measures — may return 429 or partial results
- Hashtag banned or restricted on TikTok — returns empty or error response
- Network timeout on TikTok side — returns 503 or timeout error

## How this service works

Search by Hashtag Pagination billing: call the first page normally and save billing.requestId from the Orthogonal /v1/run response. For later page, offset, or cursor calls on the same logical search, pass parentRequestId with unchanged non-pagination parameters. Valid continuation calls still get their own request IDs and quoted price, but are charged 0. Changing filters starts a new billable request.

## Output

Returns a list of TikTok posts, videos, and associated metadata (view counts, likes, shares, creator info) found under the specified hashtag, enabling content discovery and trend analysis.
