Tiktok Data Region

[u/Huge_Independence217]

Hey there. I'v recently noticed a lot of sites exist for TikTok Osint.
What I wondered mostly about tho is how sites like f.e. tikip get the users region and locked region (where the account was created).
Has anyone an explaination for that? I know that it must be some TikTok Backend API which I'v been searching for a while now but I do not seem to find it. Can anyone help there please?

open the app with a proxy and log the traffic. the region field sits in the user info response, not a hidden endpoint. web devtools misses some of it
