How much does the Douyin Short Link Generator API cost?

$0.0015 per call. Every organization gets 100 free calls per UTC day, shared across eligible SandBase APIs including this one; after that each call is billed at this price from your SandBase balance. There is no subscription.

What parameters does the Douyin Short Link Generator API accept?

Required: url (string). The Parameters table and the Playground on this page list every field.

What does the Douyin Short Link Generator API return?

A JSON response returned in the same HTTP request (synchronous). The README on this page includes a sample response.

Do I need a Douyin developer account or API key?

No. Douyin Short Link Generator runs through SandBase, so one SandBase API key covers this endpoint and every other API and model in the catalog. You do not need to apply for Douyin API access separately.
