Edge Cases

  • No music URL: Requires TikTok sound page URL. Tell user to find the sound on TikTok and copy the URL from the "sounds" page.
  • Sound removed: If sound was taken down for copyright, URL returns empty. Try alternative sound.
  • Trending sound has too many creators: Use maxItems cap and sort by engagement.
  • Duplicate creators: Same creator may use the sound multiple times — deduplicate by channel.username.
  • Regional sound: Some sounds trend in specific countries — results may reflect that audience.
