Media URLs refreshed before the 24h expiry
Every CapCut Template.One API Call Away.
Templates, creators, and always-fresh media URLs — one REST API. Media re-fetches automatically before the 24-hour expiry, so your library never goes dark.
# Fetch a template with always-fresh media URLs curl https://api.capcutapi.dev/v1/template/7382934719283746123 \ -H "X-API-Key: ogt_live_•••" { "template_id": "7382934719283746123", "title": "Aesthetic Reels", "media": { "video_url": "https://…/fresh.mp4" // refreshed 41s ago }, "stats": { "plays": 12000, "uses": 4300 }, "_meta": { "quota_remaining": 8760, "cache_hit": false }, }
Features
Media URLs die in 24 hours. Yours won’t.
Every CapCut template link expires fast — and a dead link is a dead page. The API re-fetches your media on request, so every thumbnail and video on your site stays playable.
Always-fresh URLs
Request a template and get live video_url and cover_url — re-fetched upstream, never stale cache. One flag controls it.
Batch refresh
Keeping 500 templates alive is one cron call. Push up to 200 IDs per request and get the whole shelf re-hydrated in seconds.
POST /v1/batch/templates { "ids": […] }Creator intelligence
Full creator profiles — followers, template counts, levels — plus cursor-paginated catalogues. Resolve any @handle or share URL to a public ID.
GET /v1/creator/:id → 48 templatesEndpoints
Eight endpoints. Zero glue code.
Predictable resources, honest errors, cursor pagination that just ends. Your integration is an afternoon, not a sprint.

FAQ
Questions, answered.
Everything you want to know before your first request. If it’s not here, the docs — or a human — are one message away.
Read the DocsFetch any template's full metadata with always-fresh media URLs, bulk-refresh a whole library before the 24-hour expiry, browse creator catalogues page by page, resolve handles to public IDs, and track your own usage. One REST API, one key, every endpoint on every paid plan.
Fresh means re-fetched from upstream at request time — not a cache with a fresh coat of paint. A 30-minute dedup cache collapses bursts, but every request still gets URLs that sit comfortably inside the ~24h TikTok window. Pro and Enterprise plans add force-refresh on demand.
On Pro and above, webhooks fire the moment we detect expiry — requeue, refresh, done. On every plan, the next template call simply returns new live URLs. With batch refresh on a cron, expiry is a non-event: 500 templates stay alive for 10% of Starter's daily quota.
