### What parameters does the Snapchat Profile API accept?

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

### What does the Snapchat Profile API return?

A JSON response returned in the same HTTP request (synchronous).

## README

### Snapchat Profile API

Fetch a Snapchat user's public profile by username: display name, bio, subscriber count, and recent public content.

#### Request

```bash
curl -X POST "https://api.sandbase.ai/v1/run" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $SANDBASE_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"model": "snapchat/profile", "username": "nasa"}'
```

The result is returned in `outputs[0].data`. A lookup that finds nothing still succeeds and returns `found: false`.

#### Parameters

| Name | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| `username` | string | Yes | The Snapchat username or profile URL to look up (e.g. fcbarcelona or https://www.snapchat.com/add/fcbarcelona). |

#### Pricing

Billed at the actual cost of each call, usually $0.0011 per request. A call can cost more when the first data source fails and another one answers. Failed calls are not charged. Lookups that find nothing and searches with no results are billed at their actual cost, which is often lower and can be $0.
