TikTok User Favorites API for content preference analysis

The YepAPI TikTok User Favorites API returns the videos a user has publicly favorited. Pass their numeric user ID and page through the saved list to see what content they actively choose to bookmark — a direct read on their real interests rather than what they create.

It is the endpoint for consumption-side analysis. Resolve the user ID with the TikTok User Profile API, then enrich any saved video with the TikTok Video API to understand the content a user values.

What is a TikTok User Favorites API?

A TikTok User Favorites API returns the videos an account has saved or bookmarked, when that list is public. It reflects what a user consumes and values, not what they publish. With YepAPI you POST a numeric user_id to /v1/tiktok/user-favorites and receive a videos array of favorited posts with their ids and descriptions, plus cursor pagination. Because TikTok has no open endpoint for saved content, this gives you structured access to a user's favorites — a uniquely honest signal of their content preferences and interests.

Build your own interest-profiling tool

This endpoint is the basis for an interest-profiling or recommendation tool. Pull a user's favorited videos, enrich each with the TikTok Video API to capture topics and sounds, and cluster the results to infer what genuinely engages them. Because saved content is chosen deliberately, it is a sharper preference signal than a user's own posts. Resolve the numeric user_id via the User Profile API first. The same YepAPI key supports building cross-platform interest profiles spanning Instagram and YouTube too.

TikTok User Favorites API pricing — $0.01 per call

Each call costs $0.01 and returns one page of favorited videos plus a cursor. You pay per page fetched. Profiling 200 users by pulling their saved lists typically costs a couple of dollars, and the per-page model means lightly active users cost only cents to profile fully.

Favorites reveal consumption, not just creation

What a person posts is a performance; what they save is a preference. Favorited videos capture the content a user found worth keeping, making this endpoint the strongest available read on genuine interests and curation taste. For recommendation engines, audience research, and content-strategy work, analyzing favorites surfaces signals that post history alone simply cannot provide.
