TikTok Profile Videos Scraper

What does TikTok Profile Videos Scraper do?

TikTok Profile Videos Scraper downloads the public video catalog of any TikTok profile as structured rows. Get the public videos of any TikTok profile from a username or profile URL: caption, hashtags, sound, views, likes, comments, shares, saves and post date. No login. Give it your inputs, press Start, and the Output tab fills with one clean row per record, ready to download as JSON, CSV, or Excel.

It works entirely with public TikTok data and never asks for TikTok login credentials. Because it runs on Apify you also get a REST API, scheduled runs, webhooks, integrations with tools such as Google Sheets, Slack, Make, and Zapier, proxy rotation, and a full log of every execution.

This Actor is deliberately narrow. Its input form asks only for the values this one job needs and its Output view shows only the columns this job produces, so nobody has to pick a technical mode to get a useful result.

Why use TikTok Profile Videos Scraper?

Build a competitor content library

One run gives you every recent post from a rival account with the numbers attached, ready to pivot in a spreadsheet by format, sound, or hashtag.

Find the posts that actually performed

Sort by views or by engagement to isolate the handful of posts carrying an account, then study what they have in common.

Archive your own catalog

TikTok analytics windows expire. Scheduling this Actor against your own handle keeps a permanent, exportable history of post performance.

Feed dashboards and models

Field names are stable across runs, so the output drops straight into BigQuery, a warehouse table, or a BI dashboard through the Apify API or an integration.

Ready-made tasks

These input presets ship with the Actor and are ready to run or schedule as they are.

Input

Field	Label	Type	Required	Default	Notes
handles	TikTok handles or profile URLs	array	Yes		Accepts @username, username, or a full TikTok profile URL.
maxResults	Maximum results	integer	No	100	Stop after this many output records. Start small on your first run.

Example input:

{
    "handles": [
        "@gymshark",
        "@nike"
    ],
    "maxResults": 300
}

Limits apply to the complete run, not separately to each input, so a limit of 100 spread over four inputs returns roughly 25 records each.

Output

The Actor returns normalized public video records from the requested profiles. Every record below came from a real verification run.

}

You can download the dataset in various formats such as JSON, HTML, CSV, or Excel, pull it from the Apify API, or push it onward through an integration. Each run also stores a COST_ESTIMATE record and an INTELLIGENCE_RUN_SUMMARY record in its key-value store.

How much does it cost to scrape TikTok?

This Actor is priced pay per event, so you are charged for results rather than for runtime.

Event	Price	When it is charged
Actor start	$0.005	Charged once when a run begins.
Video result	$0.0005	One public video collected from a profile.

Apify Store plan discounts apply automatically, so larger plans pay less per record:

Price per 1,000	Free	Starter	Scale	Business
Video result	$0.50	$0.45	$0.42	$0.40

Apify platform usage (compute, proxies, and storage) is included in these prices, so the events above are the whole bill for this Actor.

This Actor collects the data itself and never starts another paid Actor on your account, so the prices above are the whole price: there is no separate provider bill, no provider budget to set, and no minimum spend.

Before collection starts the Actor writes a COST_ESTIMATE record with the maximum price of that specific run, so the ceiling is visible in the run storage before any significant work happens. The Apify free plan includes monthly platform credit that covers small runs, and the cheapest way to control spend is a modest result limit rather than a large run you abort.

Tips and advanced options

• The result limit covers the whole run. Passing three handles with a limit of 300 gives roughly 100 posts each.
• A run stops at your result limit or at the maximum cost per run you set in Apify, and keeps every record collected up to that point.
• Reposts can appear in a profile feed. Filter on authorUsername when you want original posts only.
• Start with one input and a small limit to confirm the shape of the output before scaling up.
• Filter on sourceInput when a single run covers several handles, keywords, or URLs.
• Treat private, removed, or region-blocked content as unavailable rather than as a zero metric.

Run it on a schedule

Save your input as a task, then open Schedules in Apify Console and pick how often it runs. Daily or weekly keeps a competitor content catalog up to date. Each run creates a new dataset, so you can compare runs or send only new rows onward.

To send results somewhere automatically, open the Integrations tab of the task: Google Sheets, Slack, Make, Zapier, n8n and webhooks are built in, and the Apify MCP server lets AI agents such as Claude or ChatGPT run it as a tool.

FAQ

How far back does the catalog go?

As far as TikTok shows a logged-out visitor, newest first and capped by your result limit. In testing that was the latest 120 to 200 videos of large accounts, so very old posts of a big account may be out of reach.

Does it work on private accounts?

No. Only public profiles are accessible, which is the same content any logged-out visitor can see.

Can I get the video files?

The Actor returns metadata and a thumbnail URL rather than downloading media, which keeps runs fast and storage cheap.

Do I pay a third-party provider on top?

No. The Actor collects the videos itself and never starts another paid Actor on your account, so the per-result price is the whole price. There is no separate provider bill and no provider budget to set.

Does TikTok have an official API? Why use this instead?

TikTok offers its Research API to approved academic researchers and its Display API to apps that users log in to. Neither gives businesses open access to public videos, comments or creator stats, and approval can take weeks. This Actor reads the same public data any logged-out visitor sees, with no application and no TikTok account, and returns it as JSON, CSV or Excel or through the Apify API.

What are the alternatives to scraping TikTok?

You can copy data by hand, pay for a social listening tool, or apply for TikTok's Research API. Manual collection does not scale, listening tools charge monthly and limit exports, and the Research API is only for approved researchers. A pay-per-result Actor sits in between: you pay only for the rows you get and you keep the raw data.

Is scraping TikTok legal?

Collecting public data is generally legal in most jurisdictions, and this Actor only reads pages any logged-out visitor can see. You remain responsible for how you use what you collect: follow TikTok's terms, honour applicable privacy law such as GDPR and CCPA when records describe identifiable people, and do not republish personal data you have no basis to process.

Did this Actor save you time?

A rating on the Reviews tab takes ten seconds and is the main way other people find a small Actor like this one. If something stopped you from giving it five stars, tell us in Issues and we will fix it.

Something looks wrong. What now?

Public pages and upstream schemas change. If a field stops populating or a run fails, open the Issues tab on this Actor with the run ID and the input you used. Feature requests and custom export formats are welcome through the same channel.
