1.1 Workflow description

Title
Search Douyin users by keyword and fetch profile details with JustOneAPI
Workflow name
Search Douyin users by keyword and fetch profile details with JustOneAPI

Use this n8n workflow to search Douyin users from a keyword and get profile details with JustOneAPI.

Who’s it for

This template is for creator research teams, marketing teams, creator operations teams, analysts, and automation builders who want to turn a Douyin keyword into structured user profile data inside n8n.

What this workflow does

The workflow starts from one keyword and searches Douyin users with the Search User V2 endpoint. It extracts SecUID identifiers from the returned search results, keeps the first unique user by default, fetches the selected user’s profile details with the User Profile V3 endpoint, and returns a structured user profile output for downstream use.

The workflow also keeps the raw search response and raw user detail response, making it easier to inspect, test, and adjust the workflow when API responses vary.

This makes it useful for creator discovery, account research, brand research, competitor monitoring, and profile analysis workflows.

How to set up

  1. Import the workflow into n8n.
  2. Open the Set API and Search Parameters node.
  3. Add your JustOneAPI token.
  4. Update keyword.
  5. Optionally adjust page and maxUsers.
  6. Leave maxUsers at 1 if you want to fetch only the first unique user result by default.
  7. Run the workflow and review the final output node.

Requirements

  • A JustOneAPI token
  • An n8n environment with HTTP Request node support

Output

The final output can include fields such as:

  • secUid
  • uid
  • nickname
  • uniqueId
  • shortId
  • signature
  • ipLocation
  • gender
  • followerCount
  • followingCount
  • awemeCount
  • totalFavorited
  • verificationType
  • avatarUrls
  • coverUrls
  • shareInfo
  • auxiliaryOutput
  • rawSearchOutput
  • rawUserDetailOutput

How to customize the workflow

You can increase maxUsers to fetch more profile details, adjust the keyword for different research targets, change the page number for additional search results, and send the final structured output to Google Sheets, Airtable, Notion, databases, reporting tools, or AI analysis steps.
