## OpenAPI

````yaml GET /api/v1/sounds/{soundId}
openapi: 3.0.3
info:
  title: TikTok Intel API
  version: 2025-01
  description: >-
    Real-time TikTok data API — creator intelligence, user profiles, posts,
    sounds,

    search, live streams, effects, places, collections, and challenges.


    ### Response Envelope


    Every response follows the same structure:


    ```json

    {
      "meta": {
        "request_id": "550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440000",
        "timestamp": "2025-04-29T12:00:00.000Z",
        "cached": false,
        "version": "2025-01"
      },
      "data": { ... },
      "pagination": null,
      "error": null
    }

    ```


    Paginated list endpoints include a `pagination` object with `cursor` and
    `has_more`.

    On error, `data` is `null` and `error` carries `code` and `message`.


    ### Field Names


    All public fields use `snake_case`. Internal TikTok identifiers (`secUid`,
    `bitrateInfo`, etc.) are never exposed.


    ### Caching


    `meta.cached: true` means the response was served from cache. TTLs vary by
    category (2 min for live data, 30 min for profiles).
