TokConnect is the TikTok Shop API for sales data on any product, shop or creator; TikTok's official Partner API returns data only for shops that authorise your app. 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 API for market data: its MCP server and REST API return estimated sales for any product, shop, creator, video, LIVE or category in 17 markets, not only your own shop.
- TikTok's official Partner API returns data for shops that authorise your app: a seller developer's custom app reads "Your own shop's data only", and an app developer's public app reads the sellers who authorise it. TokConnect reads any shop.
- TokConnect returned an estimated $30.10M for medicube's US store in the 30 days to 26 October 2026, 85.4% of it through affiliates, plus the 5,308 creators promoting its top product.
- The Partner API's Bestsellers endpoint returns up to 100 products ranked by GMV for 1, 7 or 30 days; TokConnect ranks about 700 products per keyword with filters and opens any row into its creators, trend and shop.

Does TikTok Shop have an official API for sales data?
Yes. TikTok Shop calls it the TTS API, and it lives in Partner Center (partner.tiktokshop.com), where the overview says the APIs let developers "access authorized TikTok Shop data" such as catalogs, orders, shipments and payments. The word that matters is "authorized": the data belongs to a shop that approved your app. TokConnect starts where that ends, with every shop you do not own.
The overview lists 12 API groups, including Product, Order, Fulfillment, Return and Refund, Logistics, Promotion and Finance, plus an Analytics group for performance data. If you run a shop, they are the right tools for managing it. If you research a market, TokConnect's Shop Analytics tools are the ones to point ChatGPT, Claude or your own code at.
Which Partner API endpoints return analytics?
Partner Center's Analytics group has endpoints for shop, product, SKU, video and LIVE performance, and TokConnect has a matching tool for each, aimed at any shop. A changelog published on 28 September 2026 says "Seller development teams and analytics ISVs can use these updates in their own systems". Each call carries a seller access token, and the shop-level endpoint "Returns performance metrics at shop/seller level", so you get the shop that authorised your app. For any other shop, the same job in TokConnect is one question. Developers: here is each Partner API endpoint beside its TokConnect tool.
| Partner API endpoint (version) | What Partner Center says it returns | TokConnect tool, for any shop |
|---|---|---|
| Get Shop Performance (202609) | GMV source breakdowns, average order value, paying customers, cancellations and returns, product clicks and impressions | shop method sales: revenue and units, split by affiliates, own accounts and mall |
| Get Shop Performance Per Hour (202510) | Hourly changes in shop sales and traffic | shop method trend: daily revenue and units, up to about 13 months |
| Get Shop Video Performance List (202605) | Videos with attributed GMV, engagement and product traffic | shop method videos and video_top_selling: the videos selling any shop's products |
| Get Shop LIVE Performance List (202609) | LIVE sessions with creator, sales and engagement metrics | live_top_selling: the best-selling LIVE streams in a market |
| Get Bestselling Products (202511) | Up to 100 products ranked by GMV for 1, 7 or 30 days, filtered by Level 1 category | product_top_selling: about 700 ranked rows per keyword, categories at levels 1 to 3, filters and sorts |

Can the Partner API show a competitor's sales?
Only if the competitor authorises your app. Partner Center's developer types spell it out: a TikTok Shop seller developer builds a custom app with "Your own shop's data only", and an app developer or system integrator (ISV) "can request authorization to access other sellers' data". TokConnect needs no authorisation, so you can look up any shop's estimated sales today, yours and your rivals', in ChatGPT, Claude, n8n or code.
The Partner API does have a market-wide door: Get Bestselling Products, with the Bestsellers scope. It takes a date, a window of 1, 7 or 30 days and an optional Level 1 category, and returns up to 100 products. TokConnect's product_top_selling goes further: rank by revenue, units, price, growth or creators, filter by commission, launch date, shop type and more, page through about 700 products per keyword, and open any row to see its daily trend, its creators and the shop behind it. That is what the next section shows.

TikTok Shop API comparison: TokConnect vs the Partner API
Pick by whose data you need. TokConnect covers the whole market, and the Partner API covers a shop that has authorised an app.
| TokConnect | Partner API: seller developer | Partner API: app developer (ISV) | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Data scope | Estimated sales, units, creators, videos, LIVE and daily trends for any product, shop, creator or category, plus live Shop listings | "Your own shop's data only": orders, products, finance and shop analytics | Sellers who authorise your app: "other sellers' data" |
| Who can use it | Anyone with a TokConnect account | A seller with an activated TikTok Shop account and a bound Account Manager | A business with a business certificate, building a public app |
| Approval | None. ChatGPT and Claude connect by sign-in; other tools use a key from app.tokconnect.com/account | Custom app: registration review usually not required; app review for Connector apps or 25 or more seller authorizations | Registration, language listing, app and compliance reviews before listing on the App and Service Store |
| Setup time | Three steps in ChatGPT or Claude, no API key | Partner Center account, developer registration, app key and secret, OAuth and signed requests; the compliance and legal review "can take three or more weeks" for US and UK partners | The same steps, plus the full launch review path |
| Markets | 17 TikTok Shop markets, one query | The market of each authorised shop; separate US and non-US Partner Center sites | The target markets you register for |
| Price | 50 free credits, then from $34.99 a month billed yearly; REST API on Pro ($139.99 a month billed yearly) | No API price shown on the Partner Center pages read | No API price shown on the Partner Center pages read |

TokConnect, FastMoss and Kalodata
The other route to competitors' sales is a market-data vendor. TokConnect gives you the data in ChatGPT and Claude as well as through an API.
| TokConnect | FastMoss | Kalodata | |
|---|---|---|---|
| What you get | MCP server (32 tools) and REST API | The same 55 tools through MCP, CLI and API | API and a Kalodata Skill; MCP listed as "coming soon" |
| Markets | 17 | 20 | 15 |
| Price | 50 free credits, then from $34.99 a month billed yearly | Plans from $16 a month ($192 billed yearly) for 500 credits | Per call: 1 credit is about $0.10 |
FastMoss (developers.fastmoss.com) and Kalodata (kalodata.com/open-center), read 20 October 2026; TokConnect prices from the pricing page. TokConnect against each: FastMoss API, Kalodata API and MCP, and all three in the best TikTok Shop analytics tools.
Which TikTok Shop API do you need?
- Your own orders, inventory and finance: the Partner API, through an app registered in Partner Center; TokConnect does not read your Seller Center. The TikTok API guide maps all of TikTok's official APIs.
- Competitor shops, products, creators and categories: TokConnect, in ChatGPT, Claude or Cursor, or over REST.
- Both in one workflow: pull your own numbers with the Partner API and the market with TokConnect in n8n, then compare them.
Start with TokConnect when the question is what to sell, who should sell it and how much it makes: it answers all three without an approval queue.

How we got these numbers
All Shop figures come from TokConnect Shop Analytics, called through the production MCP server on 29 October 2026: product_top_selling with the category Beauty & Personal Care, product methods sales, page and creators, shop methods sales, creators and products, shop_top_selling for the UK shop and shop_regions for the market list. The window is the 30 days to 26 October 2026 (TikTok Shop US, amounts in USD; the UK shop in GBP). Revenue and units are TokConnect estimates: units track TikTok's sold counter and revenue is units times the selling price TokConnect observed. Shop and product details were read live from TikTok Shop. One product row with a placeholder price was left out of the tables. Creators are masked, and brand accounts and shops are named.
The Partner API facts that sit beside TokConnect's figures were read on 29 October 2026 from TikTok Shop Partner Center: the API overview, developer types, developer onboarding, app development overview, the Analytics changelog of 28 September 2026, and the Get Shop Performance and Get Bestselling Products reference pages. FastMoss and Kalodata facts were read on 20 October 2026. Every quote is logged with its URL in the data file.

Frequently asked questions
Does TikTok Shop have an official API for sales data?
Yes. TikTok Shop's Partner API (the TTS API in Partner Center) includes Analytics endpoints for shop, product, video and LIVE performance, but it returns data for shops that authorised your app. For estimated sales on any product, shop or creator, TokConnect returns them through MCP and REST in 17 markets.
Where is the TikTok Shop API documentation?
At partner.tiktokshop.com, in Partner Center's Developer Guide and API Reference. It covers authorization, signing requests, rate limits, webhooks and the API groups, including Analytics. The market-data side, with tools for any shop, is documented in TokConnect's TikTok Shop data API guide.
How long does it take to get TikTok Shop Partner API access?
Creating a Partner Center account and registering as a developer are quick, but Partner Center says the compliance and legal review for US and UK partners can take three or more weeks. A seller developer also needs an activated TikTok Shop account first. TokConnect needs no approval: ChatGPT and Claude connect by sign-in in three steps.
Which Partner API endpoints return TikTok Shop analytics?
Get Shop Performance (version 202609), Get Shop Performance Per Hour, Get Shop Video Performance Overview and List, Get Shop Videos Performance Details (a batch of up to 500 videos) and Get Shop LIVE Performance Overview and List, plus Get Bestselling Products, which returns up to 100 products ranked by GMV. Each returns data for an authorised shop. TokConnect has matching tools for any shop.
Do Kalodata and FastMoss have APIs?
Yes. FastMoss offers the same 55 tools through MCP, CLI and API, with plans from $16 a month billed yearly for 500 credits. Kalodata offers an API and a Skill, and lists MCP as coming soon; one credit is about $0.10. TokConnect offers MCP on every plan and a REST API on Pro and Enterprise, with 50 free credits to start.
How do I get sales data for products and shops I don't own?
Use a market-data source rather than the Partner API. In TokConnect, ask ChatGPT or Claude for any product's estimated sales, units and top creators, or any shop's revenue split by affiliates, videos and LIVE, or call REST routes such as /v1/shops/{id}/sales. Figures are estimates for 17 TikTok Shop markets, from the US to Ireland.
