TikTok Scraper

Scrape TikTok profiles, hashtags, search results, and video URLs in one run. No cookies, no login, no browser. Mix any inputs, add filters, and layer on optional add-ons (comments, followers).

Full author/creator details are included FREE on every video — followers, following, bio signature, verified status, total hearts, video count, and linked Instagram/YouTube, all read from the data already embedded in each video (no extra request, no extra charge).

Inputs (add any combination)

Input	What you get
profiles	Profile (followers, likes, verified, bio, links) plus its videos
hashtags	Videos posted under each hashtag
searchQueries	Videos and/or profiles matching the keyword
postUrls	Full metadata for specific videos

All four are optional. Provide whichever you need and the scraper collects them all in a single run.

Filters (free, applied to every video)

• Date range — onlyPostsNewerThan / onlyPostsOlderThan (YYYY-MM-DD)
• Popularity — minLikes / maxLikes
• Pinned — excludePinnedPosts
• Profile sorting — profileSorting: latest, popular, or oldest

Add-ons ($)

• commentsPerPost (+ maxRepliesPerComment) — scrape comments on every video returned. Billed per comment.
• maxFollowersPerProfile / maxFollowingPerProfile — scrape a profile's connections. Billed per follower.
• shouldDownloadVideos — adds a no-watermark temporaryDownloadUrl to each video. ⚠️ It is a TikTok CDN link that expires within a few hours (then returns 403) — download the file immediately, don't store the URL.

Author/creator details are not an add-on — they ride free on every video's author object (see below).

What a video record looks like

{
  "id": "7664432017722952980",
  "desc": "caption text",
  "url": "https://www.tiktok.com/@user/video/7664432017722952980",
  "createdAt": "2026-...",
  "region": "US",
  "width": 576, "height": 1024, "ratio": "540p", "definition": "540p", "bitrate": 1263149,
  "isAd": false, "isPhoto": false, "isPaidContent": false, "descLanguage": "en",
  "duetControl": 0, "stitchControl": 0,
  "stats": { "plays": 120000, "likes": 5400, "comments": 210, "shares": 88, "saves": 45, "reposts": 12 },
  "author": {
    "id": "6614...", "secUid": "...", "uniqueId": "user", "nickname": "User",
    "verified": true, "verifyReason": "Verified account",
    "signature": "creator bio text",
    "verificationType": 1, "region": null,
    "stats": { "followers": 135167363, "following": 354, "hearts": 1397082764, "videos": 457, "favoriting": 1501 },
    "links": { "instagram": "user_ig", "youtube": "UCxxxx" }
  },
  "music": { "id": "...", "title": "original sound", "author": "User", "isOriginal": true, "duration": 73 },
  "hashtags": ["fyp", "viral"],
  "mentions": ["MS4wLjAB..."]
}

The nested author object carries the creator's full details for free (stats.followers / following / hearts / videos / favoriting, signature, verified, verificationType, and links.instagram / links.youtube), read straight from the embedded video data. Videos returned from a single video-URL lookup (post-detail) expose the same author stats but not verificationType or the linked-social handles (those come back null on that path).

duetControl / stitchControl are the raw TikTok interaction-permission ints (0 = allowed), not booleans — a !== 0 coercion would mislabel duet-enabled videos. Profile records add bioLink, bioLanguage, accountType, verificationType, commerce, liveRoomId, stats.likesGiven, and links.twitter / links.youtubeTitle.

Input example

{
  "profiles": ["mrbeast"],

  "searchQueries": ["iphone review"],
  "resultsPerPage": 50,
  "minLikes": 1000,
  "onlyPostsNewerThan": "2026-01-01",
  "commentsPerPost": 20
}
