TikTok Challenge Videos API for trend participation analysis

The YepAPI TikTok Challenge Videos API returns the videos posted under a specific hashtag. Supply the numeric challenge ID and page through every entry — each with its own engagement stats — to study who is participating in a trend and which posts are winning it.

It is the content layer of hashtag research: get the challenge ID from the TikTok Challenge Info or Challenge Search APIs, then use this endpoint to analyze entries. Enrich any standout with the TikTok Video API for full detail.

What is a TikTok Challenge Videos API?

A TikTok Challenge Videos API lists the videos posted under a given hashtag challenge, identified by its numeric ID. Where Challenge Info gives you the trend's stats, this gives you the actual entries. With YepAPI you POST a challenge_id to /v1/tiktok/challenge-videos and receive a videos array, each entry carrying an id, desc, and stats object, plus cursor pagination. Because TikTok has no open hashtag-feed endpoint, this provides structured access to a challenge's content — the basis for analyzing participation and finding the top-performing posts in any trend.

Build your own challenge analysis tool

This endpoint powers a challenge-analysis tool. Pull every video under a hashtag, sort by playCount to find the breakout entries, and study what formats and creators are winning the trend. Use it to benchmark your own challenge participation against the field, or to browse entries for content inspiration. Resolve the challenge_id with the Challenge Info or Challenge Search APIs first. One YepAPI key also covers YouTube and Instagram, so your trend analysis can span platforms in a single integration.

TikTok Challenge Videos API pricing — $0.01 per call

Each call costs $0.01 and returns one page of challenge entries (default 20) plus a cursor. You pay per page, so depth is up to you. Pulling 1,000 entries from a major challenge across 50 pages costs about $0.50 — affordable enough to analyze participation across several trending hashtags and refresh the data daily.

Find the breakout entries driving a trend

A hashtag's total view count hides which specific videos are carrying it. By enumerating entries and ranking on playCount, you can identify the breakout posts setting the tone for a challenge, see which creators dominate it, and reverse-engineer the format that performs best. That entry-level view is what turns hashtag data from a vanity metric into actionable content strategy — and it is exactly what this endpoint enables.
