What is Semantic Kernel?
Microsoft's SDK for integrating LLMs into applications. Supports plugins, planners, and memory for building AI agents.
Searching TikTok with Semantic Kernel
This integration lets your Semantic Kernel agent search TikTok in real time via the Scavio API. The agent gets back structured JSON with video results, creator profiles, hashtag trends, TikTok Shop listings — ready for reasoning and decision-making.
Setup
pip install semantic-kernel requestsCode Example
Here is a complete Semantic Kernel agent that searches TikTok using Scavio:
import semantic_kernel as sk
from semantic_kernel.functions import kernel_function
import requests
import json
class ScavioPlugin:
@kernel_function(description="Search TikTok using Scavio")
def search(self, query: str) -> str:
response = requests.post(
"https://api.scavio.dev/api/v1/search",
headers={"x-api-key": "your_scavio_api_key", "Content-Type": "application/json"},
json={"query": query},
)
return json.dumps(response.json())
kernel = sk.Kernel()
kernel.add_plugin(ScavioPlugin(), "scavio")Full Working Example
A production-ready example with error handling:
import semantic_kernel as sk
from semantic_kernel.functions import kernel_function
import requests
import json
class ScavioPlugin:
@kernel_function(description="Search TikTok using Scavio")
def search(self, query: str) -> str:
response = requests.post(
"https://api.scavio.dev/api/v1/search",
headers={"x-api-key": "your_scavio_api_key", "Content-Type": "application/json"},
json={"query": query},
)
return json.dumps(response.json())
kernel = sk.Kernel()
kernel.add_plugin(ScavioPlugin(), "scavio")
# Use the plugin
result = await kernel.invoke("scavio", "search", query="site:tiktok.com viral product 2026")
print(result)Pricing
Scavio offers a free tier with 500 credits/month (1 credit per search). No credit card required. This is enough to build and test your Semantic Kernel integration. Paid plans start at $30/month for higher volumes.
