Search Snapchat by Keyword
View All Snapchat Content API - Profiles, Stories, Spotlight & Lenses APIs →Run a Snapchat public search for a keyword and get results grouped by surface. Pass keyword (e.g. music). The response is {success, data:{sections:[{title, results[]}]}} with sections such as Spotlight (story cards), Lenses, Topics, Subscribe (public creator profiles), Places, Shows and Episodes — each result carries a typed payload (result.$case) and an ID. Responses can be large (around 100 KB for broad keywords).
API Features
Seven result groups Spotlight, Lenses, Topics, Subscribe (creators), Places, Shows and Episodes in one response
Typed results Each item declares its type via result.$case so you can route creators, lenses and videos separately
Creator discovery The Subscribe section surfaces public creator profiles matching the keyword
Broad coverage per call Up to about two dozen results per section for wide-net discovery
