Quick example:

getUserInfo(): Get user info by username

use TiktokScraper\Client;

$tiktokClient = new Client([
        'rapidapi_key' => 'YOUR-RAPID-API_KEY'
    ]
);

$response = $tiktokClient->getUserInfo([
    'username' => 'realmadrid',
    // 'second-proxy' => '1',  - use fallback proxy in case you see weird errors like 404 for existing accounts. Every method supports this.
]);

print_r($response);
// response now contains array of user info.

Proxy Fallback

This RapidAPI API uses fastest proxy available for the moment. It is problematic to detect when Tiktok bans some ip address, so if you use the API heavily Tiktok may start throwing 404 responses for existing resources. This can be mitigated by using distributed proxy network via &second-proxy=1 query param (available for all library public methods). Distributed proxy network is typically slower but ipractically impossible to ban.
