  title: Cache User API
  description: 'RESTful API for Instagram and TikTok data. Access user profiles, posts, stories, highlights, comments, hashtags, locations, audio tracks (Instagram), and videos, comments, hashtags, playlists (TikTok).


    All endpoints require an `access_key` query parameter for authentication (handled by the gateway).


    **Rate limits** depend on your plan. Instagram responses are served from cache with automatic fallback to HikerAPI when available; TikTok responses are cache-only.'
