## Parameters

| Parameter           | Type       | Required | Description                                                                                                                                                                    |
| ------------------- | ---------- | -------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| `videoId`           | `string`   | Yes      | TikTok video ID                                                                                                                                                                |
| `url`               | `string`   | No       | Optional: an `aweme/v1/play/` URL copied from a prior video detail response for this same video. Providing it lets this endpoint skip re-fetching the video detail internally. |

| `data_fields`       | `string[]` | No       | Adds top-level keys from `data` on top of the selected `projection_preset`.                                                                                                    |
