TokConnect is the TikTok Shop analytics API for n8n, Make and Zapier that works on any seller, not only your own shop. TokConnect is the TikTok research platform with an MCP server and API that gives ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, n8n and your own code TikTok Shop sales, products, shops, creators, videos and LIVE data in 17 markets.
- TokConnect is the TikTok Shop analytics API for n8n, Make and Zapier that covers any seller: n8n uses its built-in MCP Client node or the HTTP Request node, and Make and Zapier call the same REST API with an X-API-Key header.
- Kixmon and the TikTok Shop Open API return your own shop's data; TokConnect returns any shop's sales, products, creators and new affiliates in 17 markets.
- A weekly competitor report is six TokConnect requests: in the 7 days to 26 October 2026, Dr.Melaxin sold an estimated $1.83M on TikTok Shop US, 31.1% less than the week before, and added 16,008 new affiliates.
- TokConnect's MCP node works on every plan, free to start with 50 credits and no card; the REST API runs on Pro ($139.99 a month billed yearly) and Enterprise, at 1 credit a request.
- TokConnect's REST API returns next_cursor, which Make reads with its token or cursor pagination, and Zapier sends the X-API-Key header from the Headers section of Webhooks by Zapier.
There are two kinds of TikTok Shop API. The TikTok Shop Open API and Kixmon return your own shop's data. TokConnect returns market intelligence on any seller: a competitor's weekly sales, its best products and the affiliates it signs. In n8n it is one built-in node. In Make and Zapier it is a plain HTTP request. Free to start with 50 credits and no card.
Which TikTok Shop analytics tools have an API for n8n, Make or Zapier?
TokConnect is the one built for any seller's data: a competitor's sales, any product's growth, any creator's affiliate work. It reaches n8n through the MCP Client node and all three tools through its REST API. The others in the table do a different job, mostly your own shop's numbers.
| Whose data | n8n | Make | Zapier | Auth | Price | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| TokConnect | Any seller, product, creator, video and LIVE room in 17 markets, with Shop Analytics sales estimates | MCP Client node, or HTTP Request node on the REST API | HTTP app, Make a request module | Webhooks by Zapier | MCP: Bearer key. REST: X-API-Key header | 50 free credits. MCP in every plan from $34.99 a month billed yearly. REST API on Pro ($139.99 a month billed yearly, $199 monthly) and Enterprise. 1 credit a request |
| Kixmon Profit API | Your own shop's profit: orders, products, refunds, ad spend | HTTP Request node, documented | HTTP module, documented | Webhooks by Zapier, documented | X-App-Key and X-App-Secret headers | Startup $19, Pro $49, Max $249 a month on monthly billing; 7-day free trial |
| FastMoss developer API | Market data: products, creators, shops, videos; 45+ REST endpoints | Plain HTTP; no n8n guide on its API overview | Not mentioned | Not mentioned | Bearer key | From $0.01 a call; no charge for empty results |

How do I use TokConnect in n8n?
TokConnect gives n8n two routes. The MCP Client node is built in, takes a Bearer key and lists TokConnect's tools for you. The HTTP Request node calls the REST API on Pro. Pick the node route for speed and the REST route when you want plain JSON from a URL.
Route 1: the MCP Client node
n8n's docs say the MCP Client node uses the tools of an external MCP server as regular steps in a workflow, with Bearer authentication supported. That is how TokConnect plugs in. Add the node and fill it in like this (the full walkthrough is on the n8n setup page):
| Field | Value |
|---|---|
| Server Transport | HTTP Streamable |
| MCP Endpoint URL | https://mcp.tokconnect.com/mcp |
| Authentication | Bearer Auth, then create a credential with your key from app.tokconnect.com/account |
| Tool | From List, or By ID with the tool name, for example shop |
| Input Mode | JSON |
The JSON input for this week's sales of one shop:
{
"id": "7495830785034323995",
"method": "sales",
"region": "US",
"window": "7d"
}The next node reads the result as an object: {{ $json.content[0].text.totals.revenue }} returns $1.83m. Every TokConnect tool works the same way in the node, so one credential covers sales, products, creators and search demand.
Route 2: the HTTP Request node on the REST API
n8n describes the HTTP Request node as the way to query data from any app or service with a REST API. Point it at TokConnect's REST API with your key in a Header Auth credential:
| Field | Value |
|---|---|
| Method | GET |
| URL | https://api.tokconnect.com/v1/shops/7495830785034323995/sales |
| Authentication | Generic credentials, then Header auth: Name X-API-Key, Value your key |
| Send Query Parameters | On: region = US, window = 7d |
TokConnect wraps every REST answer as {"data": …, "meta": …}, so the next node reads {{ $json.data.totals.revenue }}. The REST API is on the Pro and Enterprise plans; see pricing.
How do I use TokConnect in Make and Zapier?
Make and Zapier reach TokConnect through their HTTP tools. TokConnect's REST API is plain HTTP, and both send HTTP requests with a header. This is the TokConnect setup for each.
Make
- Add the HTTP app and its Make a request module. Make's docs describe the HTTP app as the way to connect to API services that have no Make integration, which is how Make reaches TokConnect.
- Set Authentication type to API key and create a keychain with your TokConnect key. Set API key placement to the request header and the API key parameter name to
X-API-Key. - Set URL to a TokConnect route, Method to GET, add
regionandwindowunder Query parameters, and set Parse response to Yes. - For long lists, choose token or cursor pagination and set the next page path to
next_cursor, the field TokConnect returns besidedata, and send it back as thecursorquery parameter.
Zapier
- Add a Webhooks by Zapier action and choose the GET event. Use Custom Request if you need other methods or more unusual headers. TokConnect's REST routes are GET requests, so GET is enough.
- Enter the TokConnect route in URL. Zapier's guide recommends putting URL parameters in the Data fields, so add
regionandwindowthere. - In Headers, add
X-API-Keywith your TokConnect key.
Zapier offers a Schedule by Zapier trigger for the weekly run, and TokConnect answers each request. Both setups use the same TokConnect routes as the n8n example above, so a report you build in one tool moves to another by changing the node, not the request.
A weekly competitor report: 7-day revenue, top products and new affiliates
This is the report to schedule. TokConnect pulls one competitor shop's sales, best products and new affiliates for this week and last, so you see a rival's momentum every Monday. Ask for it in your AI first:
Weekly report for Dr.Melaxin on TikTok Shop US: its last 7 days of estimated sales against the 7 days before, its top 5 products with the change, and how many new affiliates it added
The workflow sends these six requests to TokConnect. Find the shop's id once with GET /v1/shops/top?keyword=melaxin, then:
| Request | Route | Returns |
|---|---|---|
| Sales split, this week | GET /v1/shops/{id}/sales?region=US&window=7d | Revenue, units, affiliate share, video and LIVE revenue |
| Daily sales, both weeks | GET /v1/shops/{id}/trend?region=US&start=2026-10-13&end=2026-10-26 | 14 daily rows of revenue and units |
| Top products, this week | GET /v1/shops/{id}/products?region=US&window=7d&limit=5 | Five products with revenue, units and price |
| Top products, last week | GET /v1/shops/{id}/products?region=US&start=2026-10-13&end=2026-10-19&limit=10 | The same list for the week before |
| New affiliates, this week | GET /v1/shops/{id}/new-affiliates?region=US&window=7d | A daily count and a 7-day total |
| New affiliates, last week | GET /v1/shops/{id}/new-affiliates?region=US&start=2026-10-13&end=2026-10-19 | The same count for the week before |
TokConnect REST API v1 routes, base URL https://api.tokconnect.com. The same arguments work as tool inputs in the MCP Client node.
TokConnect returns the 14 daily rows, and a Code node then adds up the two halves of the series. With the REST route the series is at $input.first().json.data.series:
const days = $input.first().json.data.series;
const sum = (rows) => rows.reduce((t, d) => t + d.revenue, 0);
const lastWeek = sum(days.slice(0, 7));
const thisWeek = sum(days.slice(7));
return [{ json: { thisWeek, lastWeek, change: (thisWeek / lastWeek - 1) * 100 } }];Here is what the TokConnect workflow produced for Dr.Melaxin, the table it would post to Slack or append to a sheet:
| Metric | 20 to 26 Oct 2026 | 13 to 19 Oct 2026 | Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| Est. sales | $1,826,013 | $2,651,308 | -31.1% |
| Units | 76,107 | 107,546 | -29.2% |

TokConnect's numbers become this message, which the workflow posts to Slack with the n8n Slack node (Send a message), or appends with the Google Sheets node (Append Row):
Dr.Melaxin, TikTok Shop US, 20 to 26 Oct 2026
Est. sales $1.83M (-31.1% vs $2.65M last week)
Units 76,107 (-29.2%)
New affiliates 16,008 (+2.2%)
Top product: Peel Shot Keratin Care Kojic Acid Turmeric Spray, $260.29K (-40.7%)That is the story TokConnect hands you in one Monday message: a rival lost nearly a third of its weekly sales, every top product fell, and it still added about 2,287 new affiliates a day. To pick which shop to watch, ask for the leaders:

What does TokConnect's REST API return?
Every TokConnect REST route returns the tool's JSON unchanged inside a data field, so the MCP node and the REST API never disagree. Failed requests are not charged, and each response tells your workflow what it cost.
| What | How TokConnect reports it |
|---|---|
| Body | data, next_cursor when there is another page, and meta with credits_charged, request_id and credits_remaining |
| Headers | Request-Id, TokConnect-Credits-Charged, TokConnect-Credits-Remaining, and Retry-After when you should wait |
| Plan | 403 plan_required on plans without API access (Pro and Enterprise have it) |
| Credits | 402 credits_exhausted when the balance is empty |
| Limits | 429 rate_limited or too_concurrent, with Retry-After seconds |
| Source down | 502 upstream_failed, refunded; 503 server_busy, retry shortly |
TokConnect publishes the full route list as an OpenAPI document at GET https://api.tokconnect.com/v1/openapi.json, which you open with your key. Developers who want the MCP tool list as well can read the TikTok Shop data API page.
What does it cost?
TokConnect is free to start: 50 credits, no card. Every plan includes MCP access for the n8n node and for ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor and Claude Code. The REST API for Make and Zapier is on Pro. One request costs 1 credit, and the MCP, the research agent and the API share one balance.
| Plan | Monthly | Billed yearly | Access |
|---|---|---|---|
| Free | 50 credits once, no card | None | MCP |
| Starter | $49 a month | $34.99 a month | MCP |
| Growth | $99 a month | $69.99 a month | MCP |
| Pro | $199 a month | $139.99 a month | MCP and REST API |
| Enterprise | Talk to us | MCP and REST API | |
Agencies running this report for many shops can start from TokConnect for agencies, and sellers from TokConnect for TikTok Shop sellers.
How we got these numbers
The example shop is Dr.Melaxin on TikTok Shop US (seller id 7495830785034323995), picked from the US top 10 shops for the six days to 26 October 2026. We pulled the seven requests above through TokConnect's production MCP on 29 October 2026, with the data ending 26 October, the last complete day: shop_top_selling for the leaders, then shop with methods sales, trend (13 to 26 October), products (this week and 13 to 19 October) and new_affiliates (the same two weeks). The REST routes in the table call the same tools with the same arguments, and wrap the answer in data.
Sales are TokConnect Shop Analytics estimates: units track TikTok's sold counter and revenue is units times the selling price TokConnect observed. Week-on-week changes are our sums of the daily rows (13 to 19 and 20 to 26 October). The top-10 shop list is the data source's fixed ranking for its latest six days. No individual creators appear on this page. Competitor facts come from each vendor's own pages, checked 29 October 2026; n8n, Make and Zapier settings come from their own documentation. Download the data.

All 6 statistics
The weekly competitor report in this guide is six TokConnect requests, 6 credits, and every one is a plain HTTP GET that n8n, Make and Zapier can send.
Kixmon documents n8n, Make and Zapier for its Profit API, which returns your own shop's net profit per order, SKU and day across 15 markets, while TokConnect covers the same three tools for any seller's data.
Frequently asked questions
Which TikTok Shop API can I call from n8n for a competitor's sales?
TokConnect. The TikTok Shop Open API and Kixmon return your own shop's data, while TokConnect returns any shop's estimated sales, products and new affiliates. In n8n use the built-in MCP Client node with a Bearer key, or an HTTP Request node on TokConnect's REST API (Pro and Enterprise).
How do I send an API key header from Make?
In the HTTP app, add the Make a request module, set Authentication type to API key, create a keychain with your key, set API key placement to the request header and the parameter name to X-API-Key. That is the setup for TokConnect's REST API, which reads the X-API-Key header.
Can Zapier call a TikTok Shop data API?
Yes. Webhooks by Zapier offers GET, POST, PUT and Custom Request actions, and its Headers section takes the X-API-Key header that TokConnect's REST API reads. Zapier's guide recommends putting URL parameters such as region and window in the Data fields.
How many API requests does a weekly competitor report take?
Six with TokConnect: sales, top products and new affiliates for this week and for last week. The six requests for Dr.Melaxin on TikTok Shop US cost 6 credits and showed sales down 31.1% to an estimated $1.83M in the 7 days to 26 October 2026.
What does a TikTok Shop data API cost per request?
TokConnect charges 1 credit a request and starts you with 50 free credits; the REST API needs Pro at $139.99 a month billed yearly. FastMoss lists its API from $0.01 a call, and Kixmon's plans start at $19 a month.
Does the TikTok Shop Open API give competitor data?
No. TikTok's developer page describes a seller developer as a direct 1:1 authorization for the bound TikTok Shop seller account, so it serves your own shop. For other sellers' sales, use TokConnect.
