TikTok Scraper - Profiles, Videos & Hashtags (No API Key)

Scrape public TikTok data without an API key or request signing. Give it profiles, video URLs or hashtags and get rich, structured records with full engagement metrics.

Powered by Camoufox (a hardened, fingerprint-spoofing browser) so it passes TikTok's bot detection, then reads data straight from the page's embedded JSON and the video-feed API responses the app itself loads — no X-Bogus / msToken signing to maintain.

What it does

• Profiles — profile record (followers, total likes, video count, bio, verified, region) + the profile's recent videos.
• Videos — per video: description, view/play count, likes, comments, shares, saves, duration, author, author follower count, music (title/author), hashtags, timestamp, cover.
• Hashtags — top videos for each tag.

Inputs

Field	Type	Notes
profiles	array	Usernames (mrbeast, @mrbeast) or profile URLs.
videoUrls	array	Direct video URLs (.../@user/video/123…). One record each.
hashtags	array	Tags with or without #.
resultsPerPage	int	Max videos per profile / hashtag (default 30).
includeProfileInfo	bool	Also emit a profile record per profile (default true).
proxyConfiguration	proxy	Residential strongly recommended — TikTok blocks datacenter IPs.

Output

One dataset item per video (type: "video"), plus one per profile when enabled (type: "profile"). Example video:

{
  "type": "video",
  "id": "7689501576511245598",
  "url": "https://www.tiktok.com/@mrbeast/video/7689501576511245598",
  "description": "…",
  "authorUniqueId": "mrbeast",
  "playCount": 16100000,
  "diggCount": 1200000,
  "commentCount": 24400,
  "shareCount": 29300,
  "durationSeconds": 6,
  "hashtags": ["highprotein", "recipe"],
  "createTimeISO": "2026-09-25T15:53:49+00:00"
}

How it handles blocking

TikTok challenges some IPs. The Actor runs each source in its own Camoufox session and retries up to 3 times on fresh residential IPs until the page returns real data. Use a residential proxy for best results.

Monetization (set in Apify Console → Publication → Monetization)

Pay-per-event charges are already wired in the code:

Event name	Fires on
video-scraped	Each video record
profile-scraped	Each profile record

Benchmark: clockworks/tiktok-scraper charges ~$0.0037/result.

Notes

• hashtags populate from a video's description tags; videos without tags return [].
• Direct video download URLs are intentionally not included (they expire and inflate bandwidth); cover and metadata are provided.
