Scrape Creators API / Find Social Profiles

Accepts a supported platform and creator handle, validates both using platform-specific rules, and constructs the canonical source profile URL internally. URLs are not accepted as handles. Supported platforms are Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, X/Twitter, and Facebook; X is accepted as an alias for Twitter. YouTube accepts handles and 24-character channel IDs. The endpoint returns social profiles explicitly linked from the source profile and expands recognized link-in-bio pages. It also re-scrapes up to three supported profiles explicitly linked by the source and follows up to three unique public website URLs declared by the source or those trusted profiles for one page, while preserving each declared path and query. Generic service-provider landing pages reached through parked or unconfigured branded-domain redirects are ignored so the provider's own footer links are not attributed to the creator. It also checks whether the same handle exists on the other supported platforms. All attempted same-handle URLs are returned in samehandlecandidateurls even when they cannot be verified strongly enough for profiles. Same-handle accounts are included in profiles only when corroborated by a shared owner-controlled website or a reciprocal profile link; matching handles and display names alone are not identity proof. samehandlematch records supporting name evidence at 0.75 confidence, while sharedwebsite and website_link use 0.9. A bounded Google search discovers alternate handles, but Google results are never returned without verification. At most two candidates per other supported platform, up to four total, are re-scraped through that platform's profile scraper. The endpoint may also follow up to two unique recognized link-in-bio URLs declared by the re-scraped Google candidates. The global two-page cap is applied after candidates whose returned handles do not match their Google URLs are rejected. Optional profile probes and page fetches make one attempt and receive the s
