How to get TikTok comment replies

TL;DR
To get TikTok comment replies, sign up for a free Captapi key, then send one GET request to /v1/tiktok/comment-replies with your input. You get clean JSON back in seconds for 2 credits per call — no OAuth, scraping or platform SDKs. Get the replies under any TikTok comment — text, author, likes, and timestamp for each one, with cursor pagination.

  1. 1

    Get a free API key

    Call the TikTok Comment Replies API

    Send an authenticated GET request to /v1/tiktok/comment-replies with your input. No OAuth, no scraping setup.

    Parse the clean JSON response. Pass cache=true for a free 24h cache hit; default is always fresh.

Code example

curl "https://api.captapi.com/v1/tiktok/comment-replies?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.tiktok.com%2F%40khaby.lame%2Fvideo%2F7646812028874673439&comment_id=7311234567890123456" \
