TikTok profile region API reference

GET /v1/tiktok/profile/region

The country TikTok recorded for an account's newest video, as a two-letter code in location and extra.region, with the account's name, avatar and counts. It describes that one video, not the account: it is not the country the account registered with and may not be where the person lives, and a creator who travels, or posts through a VPN, can show another country (extra.region_source is newest_video, extra.region_video_id names the video). If the newest video has no country the next two are tried. An account with no videos, or none that carries a country, answers not_found; a private account answers private. Looked up by handle only.
