TikTok Live Sniper API

Developer API — programmatic TikTok LIVE extraction

StreamSniper Engine

Build on the StreamSniper API

Call our parsing engine from your own app, bot, or pipeline. Same original TikTok LIVE source URLs the free site returns — unlocked with one X-API-Key header. No browser, no session cookie.

How it works

Three steps from zero to your first programmatic extraction.

01

Get a key

Pick an API plan below. Your key (tkai_live_…) is shown the moment PayPal confirms payment.

02

Call the endpoint

POST the TikTok LIVE URL with your key as the X-API-Key header. We return JSON with all available source URLs.

03

Copy & use

Pipe the returned URLs straight into OBS, FFmpeg, or your own recorder. We never proxy the video.

API endpoint

One endpoint. JSON in, JSON out. Full quality (including 1080p+) is returned for valid keys.

POST https://tkai.asia/api/v1/extract
# Authenticate with your key, send the live URL
curl -X POST https://tkai.asia/api/v1/extract \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "X-API-Key: tkai_live_xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" \
  -d '{"url":"https://www.tiktok.com/@username/live"}'

# 200 OK → returns every detected source URL (premium included)
{
  "live": true,
  "username": "username",
  "bestUrl": "https://…/index.m3u8",
  "streams": [ { "label": "1080p Full HD", "url": "…" }, … ],
  "premiumUnlocked": true
}
