Creator Discovery Lab

Data sources

Every attributed field carries an explicit DataSource: TikTok Official, Creator-declared, Licensed provider, Admin-curated, Demo/mock, or Not available.

  • TikTok Commercial Discovery API — production stub until TIKTOK_COMMERCIAL_API_KEY is configured.
  • Creator-declared — attributes submitted via claim/registration.
  • Licensed provider — third-party commercial data stub until LICENSED_PROVIDER_API_KEY is configured.
  • Demo / mock — local seed catalog only. Never labeled as official TikTok in UI or exports. USE_MOCK_PROVIDERS must be false in production.

Missing metrics display as “Not available”, never as 0.
