Metric Considerations
- The data you can get from the TikTok API depends on whether you can see the corresponding TikTok Analytics data available in your TikTok app and at https://www.tiktok.com/analytics. If the data for the metric is missing from TikTok Analytics, you will not be able to get the data in Databox.
To view insights and analytics data, as a TikTok Account Owner you need to first publish at least one video, then tap the "Turn On" button on the Analytics page from your mobile TikTok app. Learn more here. - More followers will lead to a more accurate analysis. You will receive more insights about your viewers and the content they've engaged with once you have 100 followers in your TikTok Account. Learn more here.
- For some Metrics, there might be a 24 to 48 hours latency when you try to pull data from your TikTok Account. Learn more here.
- If the data for the following Metrics is unavailable, this might be because the video has not been active (viewed/liked/commented/shared) for more than 7 days. To retrieve the data for these fields, you can view, like, comment or share the inactive video and retry after 24 to 48 hours. The metrics related to videos are listed below:

- If a video has not returned any response, the reason is likely to be that the video has been filtered out due to violations, such as music copyright violation in your TikTok Account.
